e.g. ...Naomi's mannered voice... 娜奧米做作的嗓音 e.g. If you arrange your picture too systematically the results can look very mannered and artificial. 如果你把圖畫(huà)安排得太有條理,就會(huì )看上去非常假,不夠自然。
2. 有禮貌的;彬彬有禮的 Mannered behaviour is polite and observes social customs.
e.g. Its intention is to restore pride in the past and create a more mannered society... 其目的是要重拾過(guò)去的自豪感,建立一個(gè)有禮節的社會(huì )。 e.g. They are always perfectly polite and beautifully mannered. 他們總是很懂禮貌,彬彬有禮。
