喜樂美語
  1. 1a/ˈhjuːmɪd/濕熱的；悶濕的

    used about the weather or the air when it is very wet and usually hot, so you feel hot, sticky and uncomfortable.

    「humid」講的是天氣或空氣：空氣裡的水氣很多，而且通常很熱，所以人會覺得黏黏的、悶悶的，很不舒服。可以想成「水氣就留在空氣裡」——汗流出來卻不容易乾，那種黏黏的感覺就是 humid 在說的事，台灣夏天最好懂。damp 用在冷冷的濕，muggy 是 humid 比較口語的說法，wet 則是東西表面有水（濕掉的衣服、濕掉的地）。
