    小知识

    Sophistication is the quality that belongs to a person who appears wise and glamorous. Sipping tea and appreciating opera are both stereotypical signs of sophistication.

    The noun sophistication can also be used in a slightly different way, to describe a deep understanding, or an almost enlightened state. Before the 1800s, sophistication meant “the use of sophistry,” or using mistaken or deceitful arguments, although the root word for both sophistication and “sophistry” is the Greek sophistes, or “wise man.”
