一個(gè)有趣的社會(huì)問(wèn)題：該戀愛(ài)卻沒(méi)戀愛(ài)的大齡青年你擠我擁，不該戀愛(ài)卻戀愛(ài)的稚嫩“情侶”爭(zhēng)先恐后。一項(xiàng)調(diào)查顯示，銀川市某學(xué)校學(xué)生視“早戀”為一種時(shí)尚，“老公”、“老婆”等親密稱謂競(jìng)傳“情侶”群。

看《中國(guó)日?qǐng)?bào)》相關(guān)報(bào)道：A survey has found that many students at a school in Yinchuan, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, treatpuppy loveas a fashion, calling each other "husband" or "wife" in public.

Local media who conducted the survey urged schools and parents to help students get back to their studies and not dream away their time on young love.

顯然，報(bào)道中的“puppy love”指的是“早戀”。Puppy原意為“小狗”，日常生活中可用來(lái)形容“幼稚的年輕人”。相應(yīng)的，“puppy love”指少男少女間一時(shí)的愛(ài)慕和相互吸引。

看個(gè)例句：He' s mad about his biology teacher, but it's only puppy love.他對(duì)生物學(xué)老師很著迷，但那只不過(guò)是小孩子的癡情罷了。

此外，早戀也可用“calf love”來(lái)表達(dá)。
