Spinster老女人

　　A spinster is an unmarried woman who is past the usual age for marrying and is considered unlikely to marry. An 18-year-old single woman would not be considered a spinster in contemporary language, but a single, 40-year-old woman may be considered a spinster. The term is synonymous with "old maid". Several dictionaries flag it as a derogatory term.

　　老女人指的是已经过了该结婚的年龄却还未结婚，而且不太容易嫁的出去的未婚女子。在现代语言中一个18岁的单身女性是不会被称为老女人的，但是单身40的女人可能会被称为老女人。这个词与“老处女”同义。许多字典认为它带有贬损侮辱的意思。
