A vocabulary lesson on blasé, a word that describes someone who is unimpressed, uninterested, or no longer excited because they have become too familiar with something. #Blasé #VocabularyLesson #LearnEnglish #EnglishTeacher #LearnOnTikTokContest Blasé comes from French. It is the past participle of blaser, meaning “to tire,” “to dull,” or “to make someone indifferent.” In English, blasé began being used in the early 1800s to describe someone who had become unimpressed or bored from having too much of something. Le mot blasé vient du français. Il est le participe passé du verbe blaser, qui signifie « rendre indifférent » ou « lasser par l’excès ». Une personne blasée n’est plus impressionnée ni enthousiaste, car elle a déjà trop vécu ou expérimenté quelque chose.
