Why don't they just stick with it?" 他表示，威翟式拼音在台灣廣泛使用，國外很多圖書館也使用這套系統，「這套系統有文化傳承的意義，為什麼要被腰斬？」 [He] notes that Wade-Giles is used by many libraries overseas. "Wade-Giles has a long tradition behind it. Why should we just throw it all out?" 如果原先的威翟式可以表達台灣與大陸之分野，為何未被列入考慮？ if the widely accepted Wade-Giles is sufficient to draw a distinction between Taiwan and mainland China, then why stop using it?

Comment:	<< review queue entry 63136 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> 1) That first gloss (''to shield one's shortcoming'') doesn't make sense to me. I wouldn't know what to make of an expression like "He shielded his laziness." or "She shielded her lack of attention to detail." 2) The following sources suggest 护短 is about '''defending people who may have done something wrong''' rather than '''covering up errors'''. It seems that 护短 can involve assertively confronting accusers rather than furtively covering up one's mistakes (which is what "cover up errors" suggests to me). GR ~ Prendre la défense, se faire l’avocat de qn (qu’on sait pourtant être coupable). [which GT renders as "To take the defense, to be the advocate of someone (whom one knows however to be guilty)"] (Actually, I tweaked the GT translation a bit.) GF ~ 袒護自己或跟自己親近的人的短處或過失 HDC ~ 为缺点或过失辩护。 Some comments on Stack Exchange: "This word is usually used to describe people who stop others from pointing out and criticizing their own weakness or their family, relatives or friends' weakness and mistakes ,and meanwhile defend themselves and their mistakes. 护短 is a very common and irrational phenomenon. Yes,it means people don't accept mistakes which are related to their family, relatives, friends and themselves." https://chinese.stackexchange.com/questions/25960/what-does-having-disposition-of-%E6%8A%A4%E7%9F%AD-means "Most times, 护短 refers to protect your own member(s) (in your family or your organization) who is faulty in a dispute or fight. Let's say your kid quarreled with another kid of your neighbors'. You will speak for your own kid even though it is your kid's fault." [Ibid.] The Baike article on 护短 says, for example, 不容许别人对此进行指责、批评。 https://baike.baidu.com/item/%E6%8A%A4%E7%9F%AD Zhihu: Q 担当与护短的区别? A 担当是，我妹妹犯了错。我知道错了之后，该处罚的处罚，该受的指责和辱骂请放到我身上来。说的话是，对不起，谢谢。护短是，我妹妹犯了错。我知道错了之后，死不承认还要指责对方，反泼脏水上去。说的话是，你要不要脸，滚。 https://www.zhihu.com/question/34643104 editor: cf discussion

Comment:	<< review queue entry 63254 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> 1) Écu --> écu (see the spelling used in quotes below 2) "from 13th century" is ambiguous - could mean it was used only in the 13th century (this is what I assumed at first) - could mean that it is still in use and has been since the 18th century Both are incorrect.

Comment:	<< review queue entry 63162 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> GR ~ un accord, un engagement verbal ne constitue pas une preuve, n'est pas valable. CCY ~ verbal speech is not enough as proof 口說無憑，有圖為證。 A verbal account could be dismissed as mere rumor, but a picture might have to be admitted in evidence. 他也特別提醒有意遷居者，買地簽約後，一定要要求地主向地政單位申請具有公信力的「鑑界」服務，因為口說無憑，人的空間感又往往有誤差，極易引起糾紛。 He never tires of reminding people who are keen to settle in the mountains that, in order to avoid conflicts, the buyer must request from the seller a survey report from the local land administration agency identifying boundaries. Disputes can arise easily if there is a lack of evidence, and quite often people make mistakes about who owns what. editor: @richwarm thanks for the suggestion, much happier with it.
