短释义：To be irreverent doesn’t necessarily mean you don’t like something; it’s just that you don’t display the same honor for it that other people do. You might have a more light-hearted approach, poking fun of the way other people seem to almost blindly show their devotion. For example, when people at the Louvre are standing in hushed awe in front of the “Mona Lisa” it would be irreverent to holler “What’s so great about that?”如果你不敬，你就没有表现出对某事的尊重，比如你用滑稽的声音不敬地唱着你学校的母校。
长释义：To be irreverent doesn’t necessarily mean you don’t like something; it’s just that you don’t display the same honor for it that other people do. You might have a more light-hearted approach, poking fun of the way other people seem to almost blindly show their devotion. For example, when people at the Louvre are standing in hushed awe in front of the “Mona Lisa” it would be irreverent to holler “What’s so great about that?”不敬并不一定意味着你不喜欢某事；只是你没有表现出与其他人一样的荣誉。你可能会有更轻松的方法，取笑其他人似乎几乎是盲目地表达他们的忠诚的方式。例如，当卢浮宫的人们静静地站在《蒙娜丽莎》前敬畏时，大喊“这有什么了不起的？”是不敬的。
