盘点特朗普表情包

Trump's Various Facial Expressions

特朗普的面部表情和肢体语言是出了名的夸张。《卫报》近日很严肃地总结了特朗普最具有代表性的七种表情包，并请了一大堆心理学家来分析这些表情背后的意义，同时总结这些表情包是如何帮助特朗普吸引眼球，并最终让他登上世界最高的权力宝座的。

⒈Alpha face

During the campaign①, Trump eclipsed②Clinton in the macho stakes. He did this by adopting an "alpha face" of lowered brows, narrowed eyes and a firmly set mouth.

What Trump does in this effort to remind everyone that he is not the kind of guy you can push around.

⒈阿尔法表情

论气势，特朗普在竞选过程中盖过程了希拉里。他压低眉毛、眯起眼睛、嘴角僵硬，用盛气凌人的“阿尔法表情”压制了希拉里。

特朗普这是在提醒所有人他不是那种任人摆布的人。

⒉Angry face

When Trump's incensed③, he pulls out all the stops and produces a larger-than-life spectacle of fury -eyes narrowed, brows tightly knitted together, mouth open and jaw tense.

It is tempting to think that Trump's outbursts come from a lack of inhibition, but their true source is more likely to be his realisation that exhibitions of anger reinforce an impression of dominance④.

⒉愤怒的表情

他被激怒时，会眯眼皱眉、大张嘴巴、绷紧下巴，使尽浑身解数做出极其夸张的愤怒表情。

人们很容易认为特朗普发火是因为缺乏自制力，但真正的原因很可能是他知道表现愤怒会深化他的强势形象。

⒊Chin-jut

One of the ways that Trump tries to look like a tough politician is by jutting out his chin.

Men with bigger chins are more likely to reach positions of power. By using the chin-jut, Trump tilted his head back, thrusted out his lower jaw and attempted to give the impression that he deserves to be in charge.

⒊下颌微抬

特朗普试图让自己看起来像一位强势政治家的方法之一是微抬下巴。

下颌大的男性在一定程度上更有可能获得权力。特朗普向后仰头，微抬下巴，试图给人一种应该由他做主的印象。

⒋Big smile

There are occasions when he isprepared to throw caution to the wind and give a full-blown smile, with his teeth on display and wrinkles around the corners of the eyes. That defines a genuine as opposed to a fake display of happiness.

⒋灿烂的笑容

特朗普在一些场合放松警惕，绽开笑容，亮出牙齿，笑到眼角露出皱纹。与皮笑肉不笑相比，笑容满面让人感到真诚。

⒌Zipped smile

This is the smile that Trump defaults to when he is in the public eye.

One reason is that it makes him look less submissive⑤.Trump might also be unconsciously attracted to the zipped smile because it increases the apparent width-to-height ratio of his face, which in turn makes him look more masculine and macho.

⒌抿嘴微笑

嘴巴紧闭、笑不露齿是特朗普在公众面前常见的微笑。

一个原因是这让他看起来不那么唯唯诺诺。特朗普也可能在不知不觉中就想要抿嘴微笑，因为这样增加了面部宽高比，让他看起来更加阳刚且有男子气概。

⒍Puckered chin

Some of Trump's zipped smiles are straightforward, but a large proportion of⑥them are accompanied by a puckered chin.

These are call "blended facial expressions". The presence of this additional facial expression is quite significant because people often pull their chins in when they feel threatened - it's a way of tensing the chin in anticipation of being symbolically punched in the face.

⒍缩下颌

特朗普有时只是单纯抿嘴微笑，但大部分时候，他在笑的同时还会缩下巴。

心理学家称之为“复合面部表情”。这一附加的面部表情的意义很重要，人经常会在感受到威胁时缩下巴——这是预计自己会被“打脸”时绷紧下巴的一种方式。

⒎Exaggerated⑦mouth

His lips appear to have an almost prehensile quality, as if they were an extra pair of hands, reaching out from his face to manipulate the world around him.

Trump amplifies his lip movements because he is not completely convinced that people fully understand what he's saying. Studies have shown that when mothers are talking to their infants, they often protrude their lips and make exaggerated mouth movements in an attempt to make themselves better understood.
