国人“爆买”成日本年度词汇

从笔记本电脑、马桶盖、感冒药，到电饭煲、尿不湿、儿童书包，中国游客在日本扫货之猛令人瞠目。国人的消费能力，再次刷新了世界对中国的认识。近日，描述赴日中国游客在日本疯狂购物的“爆买”一词更是斩获日语年度词汇大奖。

"Bakugai," or "explosive buying", a phrase referring to record-level shopping sprees by Chinese tourists in Japan, has been named the Japanese Word of the Year.
被日本坊间用以形容中国游客在日疯狂购物现象的"爆买"一词，在日本"2015 U-Can新语-流行语大奖"评选中摘得"日本年度词语"桂冠。

斩获头奖的"爆买"成为近来日本媒体上的高频词，形容大批中国游客乘巴士抵达东京购物区免税店、狂买电饭锅和高科技马桶盖等商品的行为。
