衣服应该是放在衣橱里的,一般来说是如此,不过有时候为了图方便,会把衣服堆在椅子上,久而久之,就成了chairdrobe ——“椅橱”,对于懒人而言,地板甚至是灯管都可以是衣橱,只要能把衣服翻出来就是好衣橱。
Chairdrobe is a chair to be used for piling clothes in place of a closet or dresser. If a chair is not available one can always defer to a floordrobe. Chairdrobe is often seen in a bachelor’s home, filled with clothes that is already worn or to be worn.
“椅橱”是用来替代橱柜放衣服的椅子。如果找不到椅子,你也可以把衣服堆在地板上,于是你就有了“地橱”。“椅橱”在单身汉家中比较常见,堆满了穿过的和要穿的衣服。
Example:
I searched through my chairdrobe to find my outfit for work.
我在我的椅橱里翻来翻去,想找出一件上班穿的衣服。
