1

refined, worldly, and cultured

having rich, modern, and worldly taste and style, and knowing how to act in many social situations

استعمال کا انداز: [someone]/[something] is sophisticated
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use "sophisticated" when they only mean "fancy" or "expensive." "Sophisticated" usually also suggests good taste and world experience, not just a high price. It is also often confused with "complicated"; for people and lifestyles, use "sophisticated," not "complicated."
