谢谢 非常感谢各位的帮助，但是客户告诉我这个词要译为“万事考虑周全”，也能勉强理解。
IC -- May 19, 2006:
but not equal to stylish. Yes, stylish can also be used when one goes to a fashionable house or a house full of indian style and say, this is a stylish house without indicating what kind of stylish house one sees.
IC -- May 19, 2006:
To Yi: Let's put it this way, stylish itself is neutral, CAN BE fashionable, baroque, classic, modern, elegant, rustique... NOT LIMITED to fashionable. As to 'a la mode, chic, sophisticated, trendy, posh', they are a kind of stylish but not equal to
IC -- May 19, 2006:
discretion 有“不张扬，保密隐私“的意思，所以以“隐秘“形容"适合情人幽会的所在”。‘考虑周到' 和'谨慎' 放在此地有点不伦不类... (Ray 请勿见怪！）
Ray Luo May 19, 2006:
discretion is noun [U]
the ability to behave without causing embarrassment
or attracting too much attention, especially by keeping information secret.

'考虑周到' 不是'谨慎' 吗？
Xu Dongjun (asker) May 19, 2006:
谢谢 discretion好像是考虑周到的意思吧？

thanks, icg! IMHO, 'stylish' here means the interior designs created a fashionable and elegant atmosphere, you can also say 'a la mode, chic, sophisticated, trendy, posh,' etc.--but it does not imply they have various country themes on the construction.
