She has long, sleek, jet-black hair (sleek = smooth and straight, jet-black = perfectly black), pale blue eyes (pale = light color), and a radiant complexion (skin that appears healthy and full of energy). People always compliment her on her hourglass figure (when a woman has large breasts and hips, but a small waist) and ask her what the secret is to maintaining such a slender waist (a thin waist). She has a round face with an upturned nose, and she actually bears a striking resemblance (looks extremely similar) to a famous movie star. Joanna could get any guy she wanted – so I was really surprised when she introduced me to her latest boyfriend, who I think is hideously ugly (extremely unattractive). He has curly, shoulder-length hair that looks rather unkempt (unkempt hair = messy hair, it appears that the person doesn’t take care of their hair). He has a square face and a ruddy complexion (reddish skin). His deep-set eyes (eyes that are far back in the person’s face) are almost hidden under his bushy eyebrows (big eyebrows with lots of hair), and he sports a thick mustache and a huge, shaggy beard (a beard with lots of hair). I guess Joanna doesn’t mind his facial hair (facial hair = beard and/or mustache). His body isn’t bad – he has an athletic build (body with a lot of muscles), with broad shoulders (wide shoulders) and muscular arms. If he would only trim his beard (cut his beard a little shorter) and comb his hair, I suppose he could be considered somewhat attractive (more or less beautiful/handsome). __________________________________________ ✓ absolutely gorgeous (extremely beautiful): kesinlikle harika, muazzam ✓ long, sleek, jet-black hair (sleek = smooth and straight, jet-black = perfectly black): katran gibi siyah, düz ve ipeksi saç ✓ pale blue eyes (pale = light color): açık mavi gözler ✓ radiant complexion (skin that appears healthy and full of energy): ışıltılı ve canlı ten ✓ hourglass figure (when a woman has large breasts and hips, but a small waist): kum saati gibi vücut ✓ slender waist (a thin waist): ince bel ✓ round face: yuvarlak yüz ✓ upturned nose: kalkık burun ✓ bears a striking resemblance (looks extremely similar): çarpıcı bir şekilde benzer olmak ✓ hideously ugly (extremely unattractive): göz zevki vermeyen ✓ curly, shoulder-length hair: omuz hizasında bukleli saç ✓ unkempt (unkempt hair = messy hair, it appears that the person doesn’t take care of their hair): dağınık, bakımsız ✓ square face: keskin hatlı / kare yüz ✓ ruddy complexion (reddish skin): kırmızımsı bir tona sahip yüz ✓ deep-set eyes (eyes that are far back in the person’s face): gözlerin yüzün geri kalanından biraz daha içe yerleşmiş hali ✓ bushy eyebrows (big eyebrows with lots of hair): gür kaşlı ✓ thick mustache: gür bıyık ✓ shaggy beard (a beard with lots of hair): uzun saçaklı sakal ✓ facial hair (facial hair = beard and/or mustache): bıyık, sakal ✓ athletic build (body with a lot of muscles): atletik yapılı, kaslı ✓ broad shoulders (wide shoulders): geniş omuz ✓ muscular arms: kaslı kollar ✓ trim his beard (cut his beard a little shorter): kısaltılmış düzgün sakal ✓ comb his hair: taranmış saç ✓ somewhat attractive (more or less beautiful/handsome): ortalama çekicilik __________________________________________ COLLOCATION QUIZ CHOOSE THE CORRECT WORD This moisturizer will give you a (1)... complexion.
