- 1細心呵護、溫柔照顧(口語上也用來說房子、東西「需要好好整理一番」)
TLC stands for tender loving care — the gentle, patient, kind attention you give to someone or something that needs it. A friend who has had a hard week needs a little TLC: hot food, no hard questions, an early night. It is warm and informal, and it usually appears in phrases like need some TLC, give it some TLC, or with a bit of TLC. Here is the part find surprising: it is used just as often for things as for people. A house that has been empty for years 'needs some TLC' — that is what estate agents write when they mean it is in poor condition and will take work. A neglected garden, an old car, a tired-looking shop can all be said to need TLC. Because it is an abbreviation, people say the three letters, not the full phrase; saying 'tender loving care' out loud sounds a little formal or old.
