延婚族

(yán hūn zú)

Marriage Delayer

 

A: Girls used to be raising babies in their 20s, but now they tend to start to think about marriage when they're nearly 30. No wonder the parents are so worried.

以前二十多岁孩子都有了,现在的女孩快三十才考虑嫁人,难怪家长着急。

(yǐqián èrshí duōsuì háizi dōu yǒule, xiànzài de nǚhái kuài sānshí cái kǎolǜ jiàrén, nánɡuài jiāzhǎnɡ zháojí.)

 

B: Nothing to worry about. Women nowadays are more independent, and that's why they become marriage delayers.

也没必要着急。现代女性更加独立,因此她们成为了延婚族。

(yě méibìyào zháojí, xiàndài nǚxìnɡ ɡènɡjiā dúlì, yīncǐ tāmen chénɡwéi le yánhūnzú.)

A : That's right.

是啊。

(shì ā.)
