luvvies

luvvies
Luvvies это актёры, в особенности британские актёры, которых так называют из-за привычки обращаться друг к другу, употребляя слово love (любовь): Do me a favour, will you, love, and pass me a towel. — Сделай одолжение, любушка, передай мне полотенце. Единственное число от luvvies — luv, которое произносится абсолютно так же, как и love, но используется редко. Luvvies появилось в Англии в 1980-х гг. и обозначает довольно большой процент актёров, которые постоянно целуются и, скажем так, некритично относятся друг к другу. The script is witty and the luvvies in the cast play together perfectly. — Сценарий остроумен, и актёры играют великолепно.
