    Someone unperturbed stays calm when something has happened that would upset, worry, or most people. The important part is the comparison hiding inside the word: you only call a person unperturbed when there was a reason to be bothered and they were not. Nobody is 'unperturbed' while eating breakfast quietly at home — but a speaker who keeps talking smoothly while the microphone dies, or a cat that sleeps through , is unperturbed.

    Someone unperturbed一個unperturbed的人 stays calm還是保持冷靜 when something has happened that would upset, worry, or annoy most people在發生了會讓大多數人心煩、擔心或生氣的事情時 The important part is the comparison hiding inside the word重點在於這個字裡藏著一種對比 you only call a person unperturbed只有在...的時候,才會說他unperturbed when there was a reason to be bothered and they were not本來有理由感到困擾、而這個人卻沒有 Nobody is 'unperturbed' while eating breakfast quietly at home沒有人會在家安安靜靜吃早餐的時候被說成'unperturbed' but a speaker who keeps talking smoothly while the microphone dies但一個講者在麥克風壞掉時還能順順地繼續講下去 or a cat that sleeps through fireworks或是一隻在放煙火時照樣睡覺的貓 is unperturbed就是unperturbed

    It is a fairly formal, written word; you find it in news writing and stories more than in conversation, where people say 'he didn't seem bothered' or 'she stayed cool'. Two common shapes: 'unperturbed by' something ('unperturbed by the criticism'), and standing alone after a verb like seem or appear, or as a tag on a sentence ('Unperturbed, she carried on').

    It is a fairly formal, written word這是個相當正式的書面用字 you find it in news writing and stories more than in conversation比起口語對話,你更常在新聞寫作和故事裡看到它 where people say 'he didn't seem bothered' or 'she stayed cool'日常對話裡大家會說「he didn't seem bothered」或「she stayed cool」 Two common shapes常見有兩種形式 'unperturbed by' something ('unperturbed by the criticism')'unperturbed by'加上某件事(像'unperturbed by the criticism') and standing alone after a verb like seem or appear或是單獨接在seem、appear這類動詞後面 or as a tag on a sentence ('Unperturbed, she carried on')或放在句子開頭當附加語(像'Unperturbed, she carried on')

    There is often a small flavour of admiration or of dry humour in it — the writer is quietly pointing at the gap between how bad things were and how untroubled the person looked. Depending on the story, that can read as steady, or as slightly comic, or even as a hint that the person did not care as much as they should have.
