到处都有人喜欢瞎吹胡侃的,所以英语也有个bloviate单词。

品读如下例句:

【例句1】All radio talk show hosts blab and bloviate about national security. (所有电台脱口秀主持人都在胡吹国家安全。)[牛津高级学者辞典]

【例句2】Most women agree with this, but they don't feel the need to bloviate about it on the internet. (大多数女性都同意这一点,但她们不觉得有必要在网上瞎扯。)[剑桥高级学者辞典]

bloviate是美式英语, 源自动词blow(吹),含义是to talk aimlessly and boastingly(漫无目的地夸夸其谈)。
