/dɪˈkɔːrəm/
Everyone was asked to maintain decorum during the meeting.
会议期间,大家都被要求保持得体的举止。
Despite the heated debate, she spoke with calm decorum, choosing words that respected both the audience and her opponent.
尽管辩论激烈,她仍以冷静得体的态度发言,措辞既尊重听众也尊重对手。
decorum 来自拉丁语 decorum,与 decēre(“适合、相称”)相关,核心含义是“与场合相称的得体”。因此它强调“合乎场合的恰当”,而不仅仅是“礼貌”。
