    literally means by the width of a hair. Often when something very nearly happened, or very nearly did not happen we can use this expression to emphasis how close something came. 'By a hair's breadth' is also commonly expressed as 'by a whisker' or 'by the skin of your teeth'.

    How is blood (血) pronounced in mandarin? I have heard xie as well as xue. What is the difference?

    They mean the same thing, but sometimes word order can be used to emphasize a point. In this case however, word order does not make any obvious difference. One important difference to note is that while we normally omit the definite article in front of countries, it must be included in the case of Chinese mainland. We should say: I wish to travel to the Chinese mainland. I wish to travel to mainland China. You should avoid using China mainland, since it is poor grammar.

    The sentence is correct but a little ambiguous. Instead consider: We are not thankful for all of these mercies granted by our Lord. This is more direct and clear.
