A small pastry (baked dough) with a sweet filling like fruit or custard, usually open on top, unlike a pie which has a lid — an apple tart, a lemon tart. As an adjective, 'tart' also describes a sharp, sour taste, like an apple. And an older, informal British word for a woman seen as sexually promiscuous, which is now dated and can be insulting.
水果塔;(形容詞)酸的;(過時俚語,女性)輕浮的
