雙語達人:"智慧相親"不走尋常路
電視裏的相親節目不斷爆出爭議話題，不像是爲大家服務，更像是精心策劃的一場“秀”。在線婚配呢，倒是顯得很私人，可是你真的相信網絡那一端跟你說話的不是一名剛滿7歲的小學生嗎？請別誤會，小編這不是在潑冷水，只是想向大家介紹一種新的相親方式。
Intellidating, a blend of intelligent and dating, refers to dating that emphasizes intelligence, particularly by attending lectures, readings, or other cultural events.
Intellidating，是intelligent（智慧）和dating（相親、約會）兩詞的合成詞，指一起聽講座、去讀書會或其它文化活動，強調才華和智慧層面的約會相親，我們稱之爲“智慧相親”。
Call it the courtship equivalent to the slow-food movement. Call it a backlash against point and click matchmaking. Whichever, intellidating — an unhurried , decidedly highbrow approach to mating — is catching on in big cities around the world.
你可以說這是“慢食運動”的翻版，也可以說是對在線婚配的反擊。不管你怎麼定義，“智慧相親”這種不緊不慢、決意走高雅路線的相親方式已經開始在世界各大城市興起。
Intellidating is also a boon for the shy. In contrast to speed-dating, which demands rigidly timed discussions about pretty much whatever pops to mind, events such as lectures and viewings offer built-in conversational pegs.
“智慧相親”同時也是害羞人士的良方。速配相親中因爲時間有限，所以都是想起什麼就聊什麼；而“智慧相親”中的講座和觀賞等活動可以爲雙方提供很多現成的話題。
