- 1(男性)那話兒很大——粗俗玩笑用語,不是正經說法;另在料理上指肉類「熟成過的」(吊掛熟成,如熟成牛肉、野味)
Well-hung is a joking, informal way of saying a man has a large penis. It is a body word, and it belongs to the same register as crude jokes among friends — locker rooms, comedies, dirty songs. It is not a medical term and it is not polite. If you say it about someone at work, or to someone you do not know very well, you have crossed a line, even though the word itself sounds mild and old-fashioned. Notice that it is nearly always said about a third person, not to someone's face, and usually with a laugh in the voice. The "hung" part is just the ordinary past participle of hang, used the way English often does for something that hangs down from the body. You will also meet plain "hung" doing the same job — "he's hung" — which is even more . Quite separately, well-hung is used about meat, especially game birds and beef, which are left hanging for days or weeks to age and become tender; a butcher or a writer will use it with a completely straight face, and that is the only setting where the word is neutral. The two uses do not get confused in real life because the food one always sits next to words like beef, , or .
well-hung 有兩個完全不同的意思。第一個是口語、開玩笑的說法,指男性的生殖器很大,屬於朋友之間粗俗玩笑的語域,不是醫學用語,也不正式。它通常是在談論第三者,語氣常帶著笑;若用在同事身上,或用在不熟的人身上,就越界了。hung 是 hang 的過去分詞,指東西從身上垂下來,所以口語還有「he's hung」這樣的說法。第二個意思在料理上,指肉類熟成得好:野禽和牛肉會吊掛好幾天或好幾週,讓肉變嫩。肉販或食譜作家會很正經地用這個字,這時它是中性的。兩個意思通常不會搞混,因為料理的那個用法常和牛肉、雉雞、鹿肉這些字一起出現。
組成well + hung, the past participle of hang. The idea is simply of something hanging down, well-supplied.
