1Twuilt微博控/推特控
Meaning: A combination of “twitter” and “guilt” used to express the guilty feeling you get when you haven’t Twittered recently.
微博如此流行的时代，自然产生了无数微博控，这是一个由“twitter”和“guilt”组合成的词，用来表达那种只要近来没有发微博就产生的负罪感。
I’m feeling a lot of twuilt since my last tweet was over a week ago.
我觉得我微博控了，因为我上一次发微博是在一周前了。
2 Fomo 聚会控
Meaning: Abbreviation of “fear of missing out” which describes the fear that if you miss a party or event you will miss out on something great.
生活中不乏这样一种人——总是担心错过某些聚会就遗漏掉了重要的事情的人。许多留学生恐怕都有这样的感慨，在欧美大学里，除了好好学习，还要好好应付每周甚至每天都层出不穷的官方或非官方的聚会，这到底是好是坏，还有待定论呢。
Even though she was exhausted, Cathy’s fomo got the best of her and she went to the party.
尽管很疲惫，凯茜聚会控的毛病还是打败了疲倦，她又去参加派对了。
3 Brand Dropping 品牌控
Meaning: Mentioning that you’re wearing an expensive brand of clothing, using an expensive piece of technology, or bragging about other items that you own which are of high value.
浮华世界，很多人都加倍虚荣了起来，一些人简直就是爱显摆到了一定境界，总爱提及你穿着昂贵的品牌服装，用着高价的数码产品或者吹嘘其他一些所拥有的高价物品，对于这种心态，大家应该还是不学为妙，多关心更实在的东西才更有意义。
Brand dropping is similar to name dropping. The former likes mentioning the merchandise, while the latter likes mentioning a person.
品牌控和名字控类似，前者喜欢提及商品，而后者喜欢提及（造此商品的）人。
4 Digitally Freshen Up 邮件控
Meaning: A term one can use to excuse oneself from the face-time company of another for reasons of a burning desire to check your e-mail.
电子时代，人越来越不自由，无论社交还是工作，都明显的电子化了，这在世界大多数国家几乎都是一样的。对于上班族来说，成为“twuilt”已经是一种奢侈，更多的人倒是成了“digitally freshen up”，这个词可以用来为自己无法出席会议作辩解，原因就是有着紧急理由要收发邮件。
Before an regular business meeting begins, you may hear somebody say: “Excuse me while I digitally freshen up. I’ll be right back.”
在每次例会开始前，你都能听到某个人说：“等一下啊，我查个邮件，马上回来！”
5 Sunblockaholic防晒控/嗜好防晒者
Meaning: Used to describe people (especially Asian women) who are particularly sun-phobia and never forget to wear sun block whenever they are outdoors.
很多女生都可以说是将防晒从头武装到脚趾的爱好者，她们梳妆台上的防晒产品五花八门，防晒系数从SPF15到SPF50+++，品种从身体、面部、眼部到唇部，所以，Sunblockaholic就是用来描述那些特别怕晒，并且只要出门去户外便要擦防晒霜的人，尤其指亚洲女性。
—Wait for me, I must bring my sunblock.
等等我，我必须带防晒霜。
—Oh stop being such a sunblockaholic. It is a cloudy day!
哦，别这么防晒控了。今天可是阴天！
