喜樂美語
  1. 1侵擾的、打擾的（太過私人、惹人厭）

    Something intrusive pushes into your private life or stops you when you did not ask — and it feels unwanted and . An intrusive question is one that is too personal (“How much do you earn?”). An intrusive neighbour keeps knocking. A camera in your face, a pop-up that will not close, a coworker reading your screen: all can feel intrusive. The word is a bit formal but common in news and complaints, and it always carries a bad feeling: someone or something has crossed a line. People also talk about intrusive thoughts — sudden pictures or ideas that pop into the mind uninvited — which is a more clinical stretch of the same picture: something coming in where it is not welcome. It is not a compliment. If you want a milder everyday word, or nosy may fit; intrusive is stronger, and more about privacy.
