香港中英夾雜字典

定義: (verb) Originated from 'pick-up artist', this is a code-mixing term used by native Hong Kongers to refer to being emotionally manipulated by controlling behaviour of a person who is good at pick-up and chasing the opposite sex.

用法: E.g. 作為女性 聽到Juliana咁講 都覺得幾心酸 究竟之前一齊過幾年嘅ex 係點對待佢 令到佢覺得自己咁卑微 仲要傻到幫對方諗藉口 怪自己有問題 講真唔理係咪節目效果 聽落似係被PUA過 (As a female hearing what Juliana had to say, I feel quite sad to know that she had an ex-boyfriend who treated her like this while spending several years together. He just made her feel like low status and stupid enough to help the other person think of excuses and to blame herself for the problems. Honestly, I don't care if it is the effect of the TV show, but it sounds like she was PUA'ed before.)
