英美音标 [liə(r)]
中文释义 n.淫荡的目光,恶意的目光
vi.送秋波,斜视
vocabulary简明 A leer is an unpleasant facial expression. A leer means the person doesn't like you, or even worse, does — in a creepy way.
vocabulary扩展 Leer can also be used as a verb, meaning "to look at someone with a suggestive or rude expression." Dirty old men might leer at every girl who walks by, but another reason to leer is to show scorn, like a dirty look your enemy gives whenever you enter the room.
