- 不知道你是否了解英语的prefix 和 surffix(Do you know any English prefix or surffix)? They may help you. ① "预“ means"预先"(in advance), which in my view, can be equal to English prefixs ”pre or fore“. ②“测” means "测量"(measure), “预测”means you know something which will probably happen according to some evidence or your experience and more... ③"报"means "报告" (report or tell sth to sb 通常是publicly) ④见 means "看见" (sight...) just like "foresight“ ⑤言 means "语言“ （words，speech，diction......) 它们当名词或动词 使用(They are both nouns and verbs). 我觉得你应该可以从词根(the root of a word)，词缀(prefix or suffix) 可以体会到一些nuance among them.0 votedApril 10, 20169
- Of course, translation is not native speech. I agree with you. Spoken Chinese is more flexible and more simplified...I just wanted to tell him some Chinese quantifiers. It's a grammar point. It's just like we can't build some tall buildings merely by bricks... vocabulary is brick and grammar is steel.0 votedApril 9, 20160
- 英文里有一些有多个意思的单词，比如：arms、lie、banks等单词。 中文里也有，比如：意思。Usually, "意思“ is the meaning of something。 But in some conversation it will be different, so the context is really matters. e.g. ①甲：“你真厉害！” 乙：“小意思”（It's a piece of cake.） ② “意思意思” （两个"意思“一起使用，则通常出现在受贿（take bribes）的场景里）e.g 甲：“我该怎么做呢？/我要给多少钱呢？” 乙：“你就意思意思一下吧。”（It depends on you） In this context, the implied meaning of “你就意思意思一下吧” actually means "The more money you give, the more ... you will get."0 votedApril 9, 20160
- I think it is right. You describe a couple who spilt up and now they are just friends. I can translate it back into English. "Every time I hear this song, I want to cry. For many years, I've been your friend. But in my mind, I just want to go back to the past, to the state(of our relationship) and to our love." I add some words in the bracket, I don't know if it sounds natural in English. （Please tell me and thank you.）0 votedApril 9, 20160
- Yes. When you've finished reading it, you can say"我看了一本很有意思的书。" or "我读了一本很有意思的书。" The verb can be translated as "看" or "读" both are correct in this context. "看" emphasizes "look at" or "watch" （e.g. 看电视(watch TV)） “读” has a deeper meaning with more thinking or reciting. Both are OK in spoken or writing Chinese.0 votedApril 9, 20162
- It is almost correct except the usage of "着". Generally, the Chinese present progressive tense is "正在...着" or more simplified like this "在..." Then the whole sentence can be translated like "现在，我在看一本很有意思的书，它是一个中国故事。" “一个” and "一本" are quantifiers. "一" is a Chinese cardinal number representing "one". "个" and "本" are the fixed units connected to “故事” and " 书" respectively. They are just like " a glass of wine" or "a cup of coffee". Usually, we use “{(cardinal number)+本}” to describe the number of books, magazines, notebooks and on. But the usage of "个" is more extensive.0 votedApril 9, 20160
- Could you please help me paraphrase this English sentence? “The Germans had invaded Russia on an enormous front." It's from Churchill's speech. My version is "The Germans had invaded Russia and an enormous number of German troops fought against Russia forces on the territory of Russia." Am I right?? Thank you in advance.：）April 8, 201660
- "I booked the lesson on Thursday" in this sentence, I (我) is the Subject, the Verb is" booked" and the Adverbial is on Thursday. Because the action happened in the past, Chinese verbs don't have changes in their tenses. But Chinese people usually add "了“ to show the action happened in the past. And we usually say ”on Thursday “ like ”在星期四" or "在周四"。 “在” means "on" and it is also a preposition. you can translate them like this: I (我) booked (预定了) the lesson（课） on Thursday (在星期四 or 在周四)。0 votedApril 7, 20162
