你在電影中一定不止一次地看過有人絕望地捂住了臉，說“完了！沒救了”，這就是他們悲催的“捂臉時刻”。你在生活中是否也曾有過這樣的“捂臉時刻”呢？

A facepalm is the physical gesture of placing one's hand flat across one's face or lowering one's face into one's hand or hands. The gesture is found in many cultures as a display of frustration, embarrassment, shock, or surprise.

Facepalm指的是用手捂住臉或將臉埋進手掌的姿體語言，這一姿體語言在很多文化中都存在，用來表達絕望、尷尬、震驚或驚訝之情。

The word "facepalm" may have originated as recently as 2008, and has been popularized based on an image of the character Captain Jean-Luc Picard performing the gesture in the Star Trek: The Next Generation. Images of stockbrokers facepalming have also been widely used in the media to convey the dismay associated with poor financial performance, and a wide variety of regrettable film, business, and political decisions have been described as facepalms or "facepalm moments".

Facepalm一詞的誕生應該是在2008年，由于電影《星艦迷航：下一代》中尚路克?畢凱艦長的捂臉動作而廣為人所知。股票經紀人捂臉的姿態也廣泛地被媒體用來表現他們在金融頹勢面前的沮喪情緒。我們也會用facepalm或facepalm moments（捂臉時刻）來形容許多遭遇敗績的電影、企業和政治決策。

This gesture is not unique to humans. A group of mandrills at the Colchester Zoo has adopted a similar gesture to signal the desire to avoid social interaction or to be left alone.

這種捂臉姿勢并不是人類所獨有的。科爾切斯特動物園的一群山魈（猴科）也用相似的動作來表達逃避社交或獨處的欲望。
