Comment:	<< review queue entry 68970 - submitted by 'monigeria' >> This is where I initially heard this term: https://youtu.be/-Gn8rvqGrLY?t=939 “...只是个肖想王座的骗子。” Baike def: https://baike.baidu.com/item/%E8%82%96%E6%83%B3/19655383 肖想，非规范性词组。含贬义，在闽南方言中有“妄想”之意。涵义肖想，即对他人或物抱有不切实际的幻想。多用于讽刺他人“癞蛤蟆想吃天鹅肉”。有时也写作“宵想”。来自闽南话，台湾国语中经常用到。 Extra usage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2IRAatqQFPE&t=31s 国民党这样就是想要肖想郭台铭的钱 ------------------------------------ Editor: 1) Web examples ~ One can't eat one's cake and have it too. 既然決定吃掉蛋糕，就不該再肖想手上還有它 John: hey! Mary ,here 's an ad for a beautiful pen(嘿!瑪莉有一個漂亮的鋼筆廣告) Mary: I have told you ,pen is so expensive(我就跟你說鋼筆很貴ㄚ) J:But ,I have always wanted it for a long time (ㄛ!我肖想很久了內) A hungry dog wishes to eat the bone of a pig's liver. (Taiwanese) (餓狗肖想豬肝骨。) 2) 數想 siàu‑siūnn 妄想。荒誕或非份的想法。 https://www.moedict.tw/'%E6%95%B8%E6%83%B3 3) 肖想（siauʟ-siũ⊦）──妄想 [...] 例句：“立院副座換不信任案？「免肖想」！”（1997.8.1.自立早報2頁，標題） [...] 　在現代台語，siauʟ-siũ⊦（數想）用於貶義；並且從渴望轉為妄想、夢想、貪圖等意義，有不能實現的打算、非分的企求等的意思在裡面。如：bien`（免）-siauʟ（數）-siũ⊦（想）＝不要痴心妄想；休想。iau（枵）-kau`（狗）siauʟ（數）-siũ⊦（想）-ti（猪）-kuã（肝）-kut（骨）＝癩蛤蟆想吃天鵝肉。siauʟ（數）-siũ⊦（想）-tsoʟ（做）–tsɔŋ`（總）-t‘ɔŋ`（統）＝妄想做總統。 https://taiwanlanguage.wordpress.com/2011/03/20/%E8%82%96%E6%83%B3%EF%BC%88siau%CA%9F-siu%E2%8A%A6%EF%BC%89%E2%94%80%E2%94%80%E5%A6%84%E6%83%B3/

Comment:	<< review queue entry 69464 - submitted by 'monigeria' >> https://youtu.be/oV_xNjKLGKE?t=920 什么叫做PUA https://youtu.be/oV_xNjKLGKE?t=1000 偷换概念批评、指责 They mention how PUA (pick-up artist) came to refer to the act of negging. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/PUA#Chinese Verb PUA (Internet slang) to gaslight ------------------------------------------------- Editor: Global Times ~ 到今天，PUA一词不再是字面意思，而是特指某种精神控制手段，它通过摧毁他人的自尊自信，操纵他人来满足自己的私欲。其应用场景也不再局限于两性情感，而是扩展到各种各样的人际关系中，比如老板PUA员工，父母PUA孩子，导师PUA学生等。那要如何快速识别PUA呢？PUA主要有两个核心特点，即贬低和施恩。 [...] 只有贬低，还算不上PUA。因为只有贬低，我们能很快识别出来这段关系的负面影响，然后离开这段关系。精通人心操纵术的PUA，第二个套路便是施以恩惠，也就是我们常说的“打一巴掌给一个甜枣”。比如老板前一秒把你骂得狗血淋头，下一秒跟你说“我骂你是为了你好”“我骂你是把你当自己人”。施恩的方式有很多，比如偶尔的表扬肯定、承诺利益、“画大饼”等，让你觉得就算被贬低也是可忍受的。 NYT ~ 在中國，英文縮寫PUA既指這樣的男人又指他的操縱技巧。

To forestall that, I'll explain upfront. 中超, when it refers to a Chinese supermarket, is a common noun, not a proper name. Accordingly, there is a strong case that the pinyin should not be capitalized. The pinyin for 中餐 is not capitalized in any of the following dictionaries: NC, NA, PLC, K, GF, ACE, CCD and Oxford. Why not? Doesn't 中 mean "China" here? Answer: Because 中餐 is not a proper noun; it's a common noun. Similar thing in English: "macadamia" is derived from the name of a person, but "macadamia" itself is not the name of an entity; it's a common noun -- it's a kind of tree. macadamia Origin: Modern Latin, named after John Macadam (1827–65), Australian chemist. https://www.lexico.com/definition/macadamia "chinaware" likewise is spelled with a small "c". On the other hand, 中超, when it refers to the football league, is the name of an entity, so its pinyin is capitalized. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E4%B8%AD%E8%B6%85

People waited in line, rooster in hand, to receive fresh chicken blood — the cure-all for countless ills, from baldness to infertility to cancer. It was allegedly a great victory for the people, not so much for young roosters. Once the golden age for health gurus passed, the madness over chicken blood subsided — but the phrase survived as an expression to refer to agitation or hyperactivity. http://ssb22.user.srcf.net/cedpane/Br.html <netspeak> bring up children 鸡娃雞娃 jīwá Not sure about the cedpane def

In recent years, Mystery Boxes have been gaining significant popularity especially among younger generations. According to a recent industry report, female white-collar employees and Z-generation college students in first-ties cities, like Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, are the main consumers of Mystery Boxes. “China's millennials spend more on mystery toys than any other hobby, including designer shoes and e-sports.” according to a report from e-commerce platform Tmall. 泡泡玛特可谓是中国盲盒市场领先的生产商之一，而随着去年12月泡泡玛特在港交所上市，“盲盒”一词再次成为人们热议的话题。近年来，盲盒在中国市场越来越受欢迎，尤其是在年轻一代群体之间。根据近期的一份行业报告显示，一线城市（如上海、北京、广州等）的女白领和Z世代的大学生是盲盒消费市场的主力军。天猫平台的一份报告指出，中国千禧一代在盲盒上的花费高于名牌鞋和电竞运动。

Comment:	<< review queue entry 68623 - submitted by 'monigeria' >> https://chinadigitaltimes.net/space/Lie_down LIE DOWN Tǎng Píng \| 躺平 Lie-down, also known as lie-downism or lie-flat, became a popular expression on Chinese social media around May 2021. Young people use the phrase to describe a passive-aggressive way of resisting involution, or hyper-competition. State-owned media criticized lie-downism, with some internet platforms censoring the phrase. Lie-downism rose to prominence in May 2021 as a defeatist response to traditional markers of success, including a competitive career, property ownership, and parenting. It is also used to denote despair towards the widening gap between the rich and the poor, and the lack of upward mobility. Closely related was the phrase involution. Hashtags related to lie-downism racked up millions of views on Weibo and other social media platforms, as state-owned media criticized the purported cynicism. On May 27, 2021, the Communist Youth League’s official Weibo account posted a tribute to young patriots, using the hashtag #当代年轻人从未选择躺平#, which roughly translates to “contemporary youths have never wanted to lie down.” It disabled comment function after drawing thousands of angry replies. Many Weibo users refuted CYL by saying that they would happily serve the country, but not the “capital.” One comment saved by CDT Chinese reads: “Now young people can still say that it’s ok to serve the country, but not ok to serve the capitalists. In 10 or 20 years, when young people say no to both, I’d love to see the result of this development model which bars the general public from enjoying the fruit.” Other key opinion leaders also weighed in on lie-downism, including the editor-in-chief of the Global Times Hu Xijin, famous entrepreneur Yu Minhong, and state TV host Bai Yansong. They have all been ridiculed for being self-serving and tone-deaf to young people’s struggles. On May 30, 2021, Douban group for lie-downism which had close to ten thousand members was banned. https://chinadigitaltimes.net/space/%E8%BA%BA%E5%B9%B3 躺平 tǎng píng \| Lie-downism “躺平主义”近日成为中国互联网流行词。它的意思是，年轻人不买房、不买车、不结婚、不生娃、不消费，维持生存最低标准，拒绝成为他人赚钱的机器和被剥削的奴隶。听上去，它就是老一代人所说的思想消极，不求上进，当一天和尚撞一天钟。不过它更具有主动选择和反抗行动的意义，因此被称为中国年轻人的思想解放，一种无声和无奈的反抗。 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSGegIeRtgE Chinese young people are more likely to "lie down" than striving now—Trending Chinese Buzzword躺平 Lie down 躺平is Trending in China, this kind of mentality and lifestyle is profoundly echoed among a lot of Chinese young people facing the ever growing competition.

Comment:	<< review queue entry 68624 - submitted by 'monigeria' >> https://www.newyorker.com/culture/cultural-comment/chinas-involuted-generation The Chinese term for involution, neijuan, which is made up of the characters for “inside” and “rolling,” suggests a process that curls inward, ensnaring its participants within what the anthropologist Xiang Biao has described as an “endless cycle of self-flagellation.” Involution is “the experience of being locked in competition that one ultimately knows is meaningless,” Biao told me. It is acceleration without a destination, progress without a purpose, Sisyphus spinning the wheels of a perpetual-motion Peloton. https://www.sixthtone.com/news/1006391/how-one-obscure-word-captures-urban-chinas-unhappiness The involution these scholars spoke about and the one used nowadays are very different. But they all convey a sense of “lacking significant progress, and coming up to a dead end.” https://www.whatsonweibo.com/the-concept-of-involution-neijuan-on-chinese-social-media/ What Is ‘Involution’? As explained by Jialing Xie in this top buzzword article on What’s on Weibo, involution describes the economic situation in which as the population grows, per capita wealth decreases. Since recently, this word has come to be used to represent the competitive circumstances in academic or professional settings in China where individuals are compelled to overwork because of the standard raised by their peers who appear to be even more hardworking. ---------------------------------- Editor: 1) 內卷 (embryology) https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%86%85%E5%8D%B7 Nice picture of involution (in the developmental biology sense) Figure 3: types of cell movements during development https://pacific.instructure.com/courses/39845/pages/cleavage-and-gastrulation 2) Neologism: 2017年末，內卷化一詞逐步進入公眾視野，其含義也發生了變化。格爾茨、黃宗智等學者認為內卷是指缺乏經濟競爭導致農耕社會未能進入工業化轉化成資本主義經濟。而在網絡上，內卷這一詞卻出現了語義偏移，用來指代內部惡性競爭。 https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%86%85%E5%8D%B7%E5%8C%96 Example: 其实关键在于改变思路，破圈很重要，创新也很重要，比如说今年有900万左右的毕业生，如果大家都想去北上广深都想当白领，那你想想能不内卷吗？

Comment:	<< review queue entry 67712 - submitted by 'monigeria' >> BBC English: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-56343081 'BM Style' In fact, such extreme viral skinny challenges pop up so frequently on Chinese social media that there are even niche categories. The Uniqlo trend is an example of "BM Style", a teen fashion aesthetic involving crop tops, slim jeans and short skirts. It takes its name from the Italian clothing brand Brandy Melville which mostly stocks one-size-fits-all pieces. Its standard size is comparable to the extra-small size from other brands. The trend started gaining popularity last year, after young Chinese women began sharing pictures of themselves in crop tops and dresses by the brand with the hashtag "test if you can wear the BM style". [...] There has been criticism of a viral and unverified size chart indicating how much a "BM girl" should weigh according to her height - one example given was that a woman with a height of 160cm should weigh only 43kg. [...] "The scary thing about the 'BM style' is that everyone knows it is unhealthy, and yet they feel pressured to pursue this aesthetic. Some people overlook their health for this - it's just not worth it," said one user. And BBC Chinese https://www.bbc.com/zhongwen/simp/chinese-news-56320927 BM露腰风席卷中国后，成年女性试坏童装引发争议 ex: · 网红炒火的“BM风”，到底消费了谁的身体焦虑？ · “N家学生党放心入的BM风店” · “BM女孩”一词快速走红，已经融入Z世代的日常。 · 别再跟风“BM女团”穿搭啦！ ----------------------------------- Editor: To me, a "one-size-fits-all figure" is an average or medium figure, which is not what BM is. Wp ~ "In women's clothing, a flexible or open garment can be labeled as one size fits all; however, the size is typically a medium size (able to expand), rather than actually fitting petite or extra-large (XL) sizes."

Comment:	<< review queue entry 67215 - submitted by 'monigeria' >> You can listen to the fairly long video below for a recap of what happened on Weibo recently and the history it invokes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kLcUUHWxMY 王刚蛋炒饭，中国连一个厨子都容不下吗？金刚川，管虎，黄秋生，五条人，强国已正式进入“每天抓特务”时代｜稳的一批，千秋万代 There's an entry here on CDT: https://chinadigitaltimes.net/space/Egg_fried_rice EGG FRIED RICE dàn chǎofàn 蛋炒饭 What is said to have killed Mao Zedong's oldest son, Mao Anying. The younger Mao, who had studied abroad in Russia, volunteered to fight in the Korean War and was assigned to be Peng Dehuai's Russian translator. According to legend, Mao Anying cooked fried rice with eggs in the daytime, against military regulation. The eggs were a rare delicacy at the time and had just been sent to Peng Dehuai from Kim Il-sung. Spotting the smoke from the fire, an American plane dropped napalm on the site. Unable to escape, Mao perished in the flames. Regardless of the truth of the story, Mao Anying did in fact die in 1950 when his camp in a Korean cave was napalmed. Netizens credit egg fried rice for saving them from North Korea's fate as a country ruled by dynastic autocrats, since it destroyed Mao Zedong's heir. On Baidu Tieba, one user wonders: Boqilai (@勃起来): I heard that, if it weren't for egg fried rice, you wouldn't be able to get online today; if not for egg fried rice, you would be sent to the countryside to for reeducation as a poor farmer...? (June 11, 2012) 听说如果没有蛋炒饭，你今天上不了网；没有蛋炒饭，你现在会在上山下乡插队落户接受贫下中农再教育。。。。。？？？？[Chinese] Weibo users need only write "if it weren’t for egg fried rice" to invoke the alternate history China has avoided. https://pt-br.facebook.com/notes/rose-tang/thank-you-fried-rice/862723830512406/ You may be wondering why you see photos of fried rice on November 25 all over Chinese social media. The special occasion is the Chinese Thanksgiving Day, or the Fried Rice Festival, celebrated by the Chinese around the world. It’s the 65th death anniversary of Mao Zedong’s eldest son Mao Anying who died in bombings by the U.N. forces in the Korean War on November 25, 1950. Legend has it that Mao Junior was eating egg fried rice in the Chinese army’ s headquarters in late morning as other troops had ducked into bomb shelters when the U.N. bombers approached. [....] https://globalvoices.org/2015/11/25/chinese-netizens-have-their-own-version-of-thanksgiving-rice-with-egg-day/ Very few people know that just like the United States and Canada, China also has a Thanksgiving Day — albeit an informal one. Indeed, netizens invented the holiday a few years back as political satire commenting on the death of Mao Anying, former Chinese leader Mao Zedong's eldest son, during the Korean War (1950-1953). Fried rice with egg is the traditional meal. Why? Because Mao Anying was killed by an air strike during the Korean War when he was reheating the rice for a late breakfast, according to historical literature on Mao Anying and the Korean War written by former People's Liberation Army solider Wu Lijin. It is believed that the smoke from the fried rice alongside burned apple peel caught the enemy air force's attention and led to the bombing. For those who celebrate the Chinese Thanksgiving on November 25, they believe that had Mao Anying survived the war, China would have become like North Korea. Hence, they use the occasion to express their thanks to the “enemy” air force. This year, many Chinese netizens moved to Twitter — which is technically unavailable in China, but uncensored if you can circumvent the official block on the service — to celebrate the Chinese Thanksgiving Day. Participants published messages for the day and photos of fried rice under the hashtags #蛋炒饭节 (Rice With Egg Day) or #中国感恩节 (Chinese Thanksgiving).

It's hard to find reliable sources for contracted forms. And there are sometimes multiple contracted pronunciations for a word, which makes things even more complicated. The prospect of checking all these pronunciations is not something I'd enjoy doing. No video/audio samples were provided in this submission, and even if they were, I wouldn't be the best person to transcribe them into pinyin. Wikipedia mentions examples like 中央電視台, which is apparently sometimes pronounced like 裝墊兒台. I think this whole area is outside of what we can reasonably deal with. Regarding 不儿道, I've gone with the pronunciation given in the quoted Wikipedia article: /puɻ55 tao51/ So I've used 1st tone (55) for 不儿 instead of 4th tone (51).

Comment:	<< review queue entry 63288 - submitted by 'monigeria' >> I thought the pronunciation would be hard to prove for this, but: https://baike.baidu.com/item/%E5%A4%A7%E5%B0%BE%E5%B7%B4%E7%8B%BC/10892510?fr=aladdin 大尾巴狼，顾名思义是指一条尾巴大的狼。正宗叫法应该是大尾（Yǐ）（第三声）巴狼，同义词还有大瓣儿蒜、大象等。在有些情况下，大尾巴狼有时还会被特指那没有良心的对象，跟白眼狼有相近的意思，在这种情况下属于贬义词。 http://www.iqiyi.com/a_19rrhdfh2l.html#curid=1530502000_a1bc507628ff5a3572843a19a17dbdc9 ～11:42 他很容易像一个打尾巴狼 also pronounced: yǐ rando ex: 5本腹黑男主文,后来才知道,他是一条披着羊皮的大尾巴狼! 男主是小狼狗的甜文,霸道偏执大尾巴狼男主VS身娇体软女主 etc etc --------------------------------------- Editor: 0) "I thought the pronunciation would be hard to prove" Plenty of sources say 尾 is pronounced [yi3] here, but I doubt that 巴 has first tone. 1) A "big bad wolf" is an archetypal villain. I don't see evidence that 大尾巴狼 has that meaning. 2) "unscrupulous person" misses what seems to be the key feature of a 大尾巴狼: feigning. As your quote says: 大尾巴狼 ... 同义词还有大瓣儿蒜. 装大瓣蒜是什么意思? （歇后语）：水仙不开花——装蒜 https://zhidao.baidu.com/question/29039095.html The Baike article on 大尾巴狼 contains 18 instances of the character 装! https://baike.baidu.com/item/%E5%A4%A7%E5%B0%BE%E5%B7%B4%E7%8B%BC/10892510 3) Web explanations of the meaning of 大尾巴狼: a) 其实，就是不懂装懂，为了引起别人的关注，空口说大话的意思。通常会说，你就是个大尾巴狼，别装了。 b) 大尾巴狼就是形容在人面前装得很高明或者很老练的样子.和我们俗语说的装大瓣蒜一个道理. c)哈哈，我们经常说！念作“大以巴狼”，说俗点是“装蒜”，说难听点是“装孙子” 意思就是假装深沉，或者说是故意装成自己不擅长的样子，也有说这人装成和自己完全不符的样子譬如：别跟我这儿装大尾巴狼！ (Note: NA defines 装蒜 as "to pretend not to know; feign/fake ignorance", and defines 装孙子 as a synonym of 装蒜.) 4) Example of usage: 出了事却表现出过分的关注，这本身就是虚伪，就是装大尾巴狼。

Comment:	<< review queue entry 67588 - submitted by 'monigeria' >> I'm seeing a lot of this in connection to the UK; not sure if similar wording is used with other areas or not, but I would assume it wouldn't differ that much.

Comment:	<< review queue entry 63289 - submitted by 'monigeria' >> http://epaper.xiancn.com/xarb/html/2017-06/16/content_485695.htm 有一个人，骑着一匹马在路上跑,因为马跑得飞快，不断有路人为它鼓掌叫好,马很得意，骑马的人也很得意,于是快马加鞭，继续在驿道上狂奔,而且跑得越快，叫好的人就越多。跑了几百里之后，这匹马突然一个跟头栽倒，呼呼地喘了一会气，就死了。骑马的人摔下来，急得想哭。好好的马，怎么会死呢？这时一个老者走过来说：“杀君马者，道旁儿也。”意思是说，杀你马的人，就是那些在路旁给你鼓掌叫好的人。 ex: http://review.jschina.com.cn/meitiguandian/201810/t20181027_1999699.shtml 　　《富豪榜》的制作机构需要承担自己的责任，不仅是作为商业榜单的专业责任，也有伸张企业家精神，维护企业家群体合法权益的社会责任。不能做到这点，富豪榜也好，更具噱头意味的“套现榜”也好，何止“杀君马者道旁儿”，又与蓄意黑化民营企业家何异？（余布穷） https://baijiahao.baidu.com/s?id=1613408985569011058&wfr=spider&for=pc 杀君马者道旁儿，事已至此，孝明天皇也不甘示弱，斥责江户幕府胡作非为。 --------------------------------------- Editor: 有一個人，騎著一匹馬在路上跑。因為馬跑得飛快，不斷有路人為它鼓掌叫好。馬很得意，騎馬的人也很得意。於是快馬加鞭，繼續在驛道上狂奔。而且跑得越快，叫好的人就越多。跑了幾百里之後，這匹馬突然一個跟頭栽倒，呼呼地喘了一會兒氣，就死了。騎馬的人摔下來，急得想哭。好好的馬，怎麼會死呢？這時一個老者走過來說：「殺君馬者，道旁兒也。」意思是說，殺你馬的人，就是那些在路旁給你鼓掌叫好的人。這個故事，出自東漢應劭的《風俗通義》，後來又被宋代類書《太平御覽》收錄。原北京大學校長蔡元培，曾兩次引用這個典故。一次是1919年「五四運動」發生以後，5月9日，蔡元培寫了一封辭職信，其中說：「我倦矣！殺君馬者道旁兒。」另一次是1926年，蔡元培給胡適寫了一首詩，其中一句就是：「道上兒能殺君馬，河干人豈誚庭粗。」 [...] 如果總是陶醉在「道旁兒」的喝彩聲中，就可能一意孤行，自毀前程。原文網址：https://kknews.cc/news/lp65jje.html 一時不知「殺君馬者道旁兒」深意，可以參考百度百科的「捧殺」條。簡而言之，就是「過分地誇獎或吹捧，使人驕傲自滿、停滯退步甚至導致墮落、失敗」。 https://notesbooks.wordpress.com/tag/%E6%AE%BA%E5%90%9B%E9%A6%AC%E8%80%85%E9%81%93%E6%97%81%E5%85%92/ 对一个雄心勃勃、致力进步的国家来说，赞美是无意义的，有时甚至是有害的。古语云，“杀君马者道旁儿”。路边的看客不停地称赞马跑得快，马主不停地加速，结果反而把马累死了。中国目前处于现代化转型的关键时期，需要的不是廉价的赞美和颂歌，而是直言不讳地指出真正问题，提供思想资源。就像鲁迅所说，“揭出病苦,引起疗救的注意”。在这个意义上，李光耀、科尔奈和福山三位外国人不但最懂得中国，也最值得尊敬。他们的忠告应该认真听取，深长思之。 For an ambitious country that is committed to progress, praise is meaningless, and can even be harmful. As the saying goes, ‘the king’s horses died from the children on the side of the road’. The spectators on the side of the road are constantly exhorting the horse to run faster, and the owner kept pushing it, but at the end, the horse died from exhaustion. China is now in a critical period of transformation and modernisation, what it needs is not cheap praise and pretty songs, but for the real problems to be bluntly pointed at, and the resources of good thinking. As Lu Xun said, ‘revealing the agony helped find out the cure’. In this sense, Lee Kuan Yew, Fukuyama and Kornai are not only the three foreigners who best understood China, but also the most worthy of respect. Their advice deserves careful attention, and deep reflection. http://museum.marcopoloproject.org/2016/03/14/the-three-aliens-who-most-understood-china-%E6%9C%80%E6%87%82%E4%B8%AD%E5%9B%BD%E7%9A%84%E4%B8%89%E4%B8%AA%E5%A4%96%E5%9B%BD%E4%BA%BA/ 白话释义：杀你马的人就是在旁边那些给你马鼓掌的人，夸之者就是害之者。也就是捧杀。 https://m.copyan.com/ku-ncnnaop.html
