“过分规矩的”可以用英语表达为 “overly formal” 或 “excessively proper”。
“overly formal” 强调过度正式、拘泥于形式,可能显得不够自然或亲切。
“excessively proper” 则侧重于行为或态度过于符合规范、传统,可能显得过于刻板或保守。
根据具体语境,可以选择其中一个更贴切的表达。例如:
His overly formal behavior made him seem unapproachable.(他过分规矩的行为让他显得难以接近。)
She was excessively proper in her speech and manners.(她在言谈举止上过分规矩。)
