Public Display of Affection is so common and varied that it's earned its own acronym, the PDA.

I was recently in London sharing a coffee with my uncle, who's in his 50s. When we went to leave a teenage couple was wildly embracing and kissing in the doorway in front of us. "If they really loved each other they wouldn't feel the need to do that," he muttered disapprovingly.
不久前,我和50多岁的叔叔在伦敦喝咖啡。临走时,一对十多岁的情侣在我们前面的门口处疯狂地拥吻。“如果真爱对方,他们完全没有必要这样做,”叔叔不以为然地低声说。
