sunbathe 復習

It's 9 a.m. on a May morning in Thailand's Maya Bay in the Andaman Sea, a destination made famous by "The Beach" movie starring Leonardo DiCaprio.
But instead of the pristine, empty shores seen in the film directed by Danny Boyle, the scene is far more chaotic. Selfie-taking tourists line the sand, which is crammed full with speed boats.

中略

Visitor numbers multiply by the minute as boats pour in an out of the bay, dropping off more bodies to sunbathe and snorkel.

sunとbath(e)の複合語であるsunbathe / sʌ́nbèɪð / を取り上げます。『ジーニアス英和辞典』を引くと「日なたぼっこ［日光浴］をする」とあり、名詞で表すとsunbatherとなります。LDOCEでは“to sit or lie outside in the sun, especially in order to become brown”と定義されています。

またSit in the sunやBask in the sunでも「日なたぼっこをする」と表現できます。(Kiwi girl)
