“剃度出家”怎么说

“我所居兮，青梗之峰；我所游兮，鸿蒙太空。谁与我游兮，吾谁与从？渺渺茫茫兮，归彼大荒……” 大凡读过《红楼梦》，一定记得宝玉雪天拜别贾政、偕同一僧一道高歌远去这一幕。只是，如今遁入空门的是“林妹妹”，而非“宝玉”。有消息称，林黛玉的扮演者陈晓旭抛弃亿万家产，剃度出家。

请看CRI相关报道：Former Chinese actress and business celebrity Chen Xiaoxu hastaken the tonsureat a Buddhist temple in Changchun, capital of Jilin province in northeast China, her husband told a newspaper Sunday.

由报道可知，短语“to take the tonsure”指的是“剃度出家，削发为僧/尼”。“Tonsure”源于中世纪，指神甫或和尚在入门仪式上剃光头发或剃掉一部分头发。

谈到这儿，不由想起近日小甜甜布兰妮亦有剃头之举，不过她的“剃”可不是为了当修女或尼姑。描述日常生活中的“剃头”仅用常用动词“shave”就可以了。看例句：

Britney Spears shaved her head bald on Friday night. But that didn't send her into hiding as she was later seen wearing an inexpensive blond wig.（布兰妮周五晚剃光头发后依然高调出入公共场合，人们看到她戴着廉价的金色假发招摇过市。）
