- 1噴一下、噴灑（細細的一小陣，像噴香水那樣）；名詞也可指一杯 Spritz 調酒（如 Aperol Spritz）
To spritz something is to spray a little liquid onto it in a quick, fine mist. It is a light, casual word: you spritz perfume on your wrist, spritz water on a plant or on your face in hot weather, spritz oil on a pan. The size matters — a spritz is small and fine, so you would not say you spritzed a whole floor with water. It works as a noun too: 'give it a spritz'. The word sounds informal and slightly playful in English, and it is very common in beauty and cooking writing. Separately, an Aperol Spritz (or just 'a spritz') is a popular orange-coloured wine cocktail, which is what the word most often means on a bar menu in Europe now.
組成From German/Yiddish — German spritzen 'to squirt, spray'. It came into English through German and Yiddish speakers, which is part of why it still sounds informal and a bit fun.
