overly dramatic woman, not literal
A woman who acts too emotional or dramatic to get attention or make people feel sorry for her.
استعمال کا انداز:
[someone] is such an actress
عام غلطی:
Learners may misunderstand this figurative use and think it always means a professional woman actor. In informal speech, calling someone "an actress" can be criticism, suggesting she is overdramatic, not that she works in films or theater.
