如今的90后一代,人人想创业,人人想当企业家。但是,创业并非儿戏,需要投入大量精力和时间。那些既想创业,又懒得行动的人就被称作“wantrapreneur(创想家)”。
Wantrapreneur is a pejorative slang word for a person who wants to be an entrepreneur, but has either not made the full commitment or is pursuing the endeavor in a haphazard manner.
“创想家”是对想当企业家,但又没有全身心投入或是以一种随随便便态度对待此事的人的俚语称呼,含贬义。
例句:
The startup world is cluttered with "wantrapreneurs" who fail to recognize that success demands a tenacity, resiliency and energy unlike any traditional job.
创业圈里到处都是“创想家”,这些人没有意识到成功需要坚持、卷土重来的能力以及有别于一般工作的精力。
