GENTLE KISS 輕吻

Because this type of kiss is typically a prelude to more physical intimacy, it is described as being about 'teasing and delayed gratification' and usually shared between two people who are deeply comfortable with each other.

這種接吻方式通常是進(jìn)一步肢體接觸的前奏，所以它通常被描述為“挑逗或者延遲滿足感”，而且通常在兩個(gè)人關(guān)系十分舒適時(shí)發(fā)生。

PECK 匆匆一吻

For people who are kissing for the first time or just started dating, Phil explained that a peck is 'all about testing the waters'. It is a sign that a person would like to continue a physical relationship but wants to make sure that the other person feels the same.

菲爾說這樣的接吻就是試試水，適合第一次接吻或是剛開始約會(huì)的情侶。通常，情侶中的一方想要更親密的肢體接觸，他們會(huì)用這種方式試探對方是否也有同樣的想法。

However, as a relationship deepens it becomes a sign of comfort as it can be an intimate way to say 'hello' or 'goodbye' to your partner.

然而，隨著關(guān)系變深，這樣接吻漸漸成為伴侶間問好或是道別的一種親密的方式，意味著兩人相處在一起很舒服。

SINGLE-LIP KISS 單唇親吻

This type of kiss is more intimate than a peck because the partners choose to be deeply focused on one section of the other's mouth. However, it is a slow kiss that can seem more romantic than more aggressive open mouth kisses.

這種親吻方式比匆匆一吻更親密，因?yàn)橛H吻的一方會(huì)著重吻對方嘴的具體某一部位。不過，這種吻比較舒緩，和較為激烈的濕吻相比，更加浪漫。

FRENCH KISS 法式接吻

When couples engage in a French kiss, they massage their tongues together, and according to Phil this type of smooch is about exploration and wanting to get the know the other person even more.

當(dāng)情侶進(jìn)行法式接吻時(shí)，他們的舌頭交纏在一起。菲爾說這種吻是一種探索，意味著他們想進(jìn)一步了解對方。

SLOPPY KISS 濕吻

When two people throw caution to the wind and 'swap spit' during open mouth kisses, it is typically a sign of an intense physical relationship and sexual energy.

當(dāng)兩個(gè)人張嘴“交換唾液”時(shí)，他們完全放開了，這通常意味著強(qiáng)烈的肉體關(guān)系和性能量。

These types of kisses can often lead to the bedroom as partners freely explore each other's mouths without abandon or fear of boundaries.

伴侶間可以自由地探索對方的口腔，絲毫沒有任何顧忌，所以這種吻往往以床事告終。

CHEEK KISS 臉頰吻

Phil explained that a peck on the cheek shows friendship and affection and 'all about conveying that you like someone'.

菲爾解釋說臉頰上的一吻代表友誼與感情，等于在說“你喜歡某人”。

When couples share a kiss on the cheek after years of being together, it may be a sign that they still have a strong friendship at the root of their relationship.

如果是多年的夫妻互相親吻臉頰，或許就意味著他們依舊擁有根植于他們愛情之中的堅(jiān)貞的友誼。

CLOSED MOUTH KISS 閉嘴吻

According to Phil, this type of kiss reveals that two people aren't necessarily comfortable with each other.

據(jù)菲爾所說，這種吻表示戀愛雙方并沒有那種理所當(dāng)然的舒適。

If this type of kiss is exchanged between people who are in a long term relationship, it could mean a sign that they are 'putting up emotional wall', and they most likely need to work on communicating with each other.

如果這種吻出現(xiàn)在一段長期的感情關(guān)系中，或許意味著他們正在“修建一座情感的墻”，雙方的溝通工作迫在眉睫。

BUTTERFLY KISS 蝶吻

One of the sweetest - and most unique kisses - is the butterfly kiss, which doesn't actually involve lips at all.

蝶吻是最為甜蜜和特殊的吻之一，它完全不需要雙方的嘴。

In order to exchange a butterfly kiss, two people have to move their faces towards each other until their eyelids are almost touching before they begin rapidly fluttering their eyelashes.

如果想做出蝶吻，兩人需要面對面把臉頰靠的足夠近，在雙方的眼皮就快要接觸的時(shí)候快速眨眼。

When done right, it feels you are being kissed by the delicate wings of a butterfly. Phil explained that this type of kiss is a symbol of 'young love' because it is not as commonly shared between more mature couples.

如果方法得當(dāng)，感覺就會(huì)好像你在被精致的蝴蝶翅膀親吻一樣。菲爾解釋說這是“年輕的愛”的一種象征，因?yàn)樵诔墒斓陌閭H之中這種吻并不常見。

ANGEL KISS 天使之吻

When someone lightly kisses another person's closed eyelid, it is often referred to as an angel kiss. This type of smooch is an intimate gesture that is meant to give the other person a feeling of security in comfort.

一個(gè)人輕輕地吻另一個(gè)人的眼皮，叫做“天使之吻”。這種吻是一種親密的舉動(dòng)，意在給另一個(gè)人安全舒適的感受。

According to Phil, someone who gives their partner angel kisses believes it is important to take care of one another.

據(jù)菲爾說，給他人天使之吻的人認(rèn)為他需要給被親吻者予以照料。

The angel kiss can also be a symbol of trust between two people because it is all about protection.

因?yàn)樗馕吨刈o(hù)，天使之吻也是兩人之間信任的象征。

NIBBLE KISS 咬吻

When couple's gently bite each other's lips without drawing blood it is a sign of a 'feisty' relationship.

情侶輕輕地用不會(huì)導(dǎo)致流血的力度咬對方的嘴唇，代表著一段“充滿活力的”感情。

Phil explained that nibbling your partner shows a strong physical passion and may be an indicator that two people have a 'healthy, and perhaps athletic, sex life'.

菲爾解釋說咬對方的嘴唇意味著強(qiáng)烈的肉體激情，可能暗示著雙方擁有“健康甚至活躍的性生活”。

SPIDERMAN KISS 蜘蛛俠吻

In the 2002 blockbuster Spider-Man, Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst introduced a new type of kiss while playing their respective characters Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson.

在2002年大片《蜘蛛俠》中，托比•馬奎爾和克里斯汀•鄧斯特分別扮演皮特•帕克與瑪麗•珍•沃森的時(shí)候給我們展現(xiàn)了一種新式的吻。

During the beloved scene in the film, Peter is hanging upside when Mary pulls down his mask to expose only his lips as she gives him a passionate kiss.

在這個(gè)備受喜愛的影片情節(jié)中，皮特倒掛下來，瑪麗拉下他的面具露出嘴唇，然后給了他一個(gè)熱烈的吻。

The iconic kiss is far from practical, and unsurprisingly, kissing your partner an upside down kiss when they are laying down is a sign of spontaneity in a relationship.

盡管這個(gè)標(biāo)志性的吻要付諸行動(dòng)并不實(shí)際，然而可以想象，當(dāng)你的伴侶躺下的時(shí)候倒過來親吻她(他)確是在感情中自然的一種表現(xiàn)。

'This kiss shows that your relationship still surprises you,' Phil wrote. 'You each still share a sense of excitement, and you love the opportunity to sneak up and lay an unexpected kiss on your partner.'

“這種吻表達(dá)這段感情依然給你驚喜，”菲爾寫道，“你們依然對戀情感到興奮，你也喜歡抓住機(jī)會(huì)偷偷給對方一個(gè)驚喜之吻的體驗(yàn)。”
