<< review queue entry 65948 - submitted by 'pepe' >> 百度百科： 朝生暮死，意思是早晨出生，夜晚死亡、今亦形容事物生命短暂，时间飞逝 。出自《重修政和证类本草·草下之上》:“朝生幕落花……生粪秽处，头如笔，紫色，朝生暮死。” Examples: 根据“虚浮世界”这一短语的寓意，并且以佛 教 朝生暮死 的 世 界观为根源，浮世绘表现了当时城市生活瞬息万变的动态。 As the phrase “floating world” suggests, with its roots in the ephemeral worldview of Buddhism, ukiyo-e captured the fleeting dynamics of contemporary urban life. https://zaojv.com/6703402.html 1. 不闻道而死，曷异蜉蝣之朝生暮死乎。 2. 这样看起来，反而是朝生暮死的蝴蝶为可羡了。它们在短短的一春里尽情地酣足地在花间飞舞，一旦春尽花残，便爽爽快快地殉着春光化去，好像它们一生只是为了酣舞与享乐而来的，倒要痛快些。 3. 缘分朝生暮死脆弱如露水，唯独于你，像是一条生生不息的河流。 4. 我们这一生，会遇到很多人，缘分皆朝生暮死脆弱如露水。唯独与你，像是一条生生不息的河流。 5. 我写尽了别人的朝生暮死，却将自己沦落，无从拯救。 6. 全都是朝生暮死的，记忆者与被记忆者都一样。 7. 一羡蜉蝣，朝生暮死。二羡凡侣，携手白头。三羡草木，无心无苦。四羡飞鸟，归去自如。 |

Rebecca Lui, a spokeswoman, said that the vast majority of its work force supported the new system, and that employees were free to keep their old schedules. https://cn.nytimes.com/china/20161117/across-china-walmart-faces-labor-unrest-as-authorities-stand-aside/dual/ ====== Editor: thanks, seems like we've already added this word to CEDICT. |

<< review queue entry 66705 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> appears to be an orthographic borrowing from Japanese 国防色 (khaki). https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%9C%8B%E9%98%B2%E8%89%B2 TP 總督溫泉興建的年代，適逢1937年「蘆溝橋事變」日本侵華戰爭爆發，日本政府為了因應未來的戰事，鼓勵台灣民眾在建築物外牆上使用具有防空保護作用的「國防色面磚」，這種流行於1920年代末至40年代初的面磚，有淺綠、土黃和褐色等，為了避免反光引起敵機轟炸，當時北投窯廠還特別生產國防色陶質「13溝面磚」，將磚面表面作成凹凸摺線，約有13條溝痕。 During the onsen's construction, Japan invaded China after the Marco Polo Bridge Incident of 1937. The Japanese authorities urged Taiwanese to use bricks in camouflage colors to hinder air raids. These colors--light green, beige, and brown--were often used from the late 1920s through the early 1940s. A kiln in Peitou specially produced bricks of these colors, known as "13-channel bricks" for their rippled surface, designed to reduce buildings' visibility to enemy aircraft by reducing the bricks' reflectiveness. |

<< review queue entry 66707 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> "to fold" is quite misleading. I believe it comes from the following sort of usage: 停棲時雙翅合攏，when at rest [dragonflies] fold [their wings] over their backs This is a special sense of "fold" which is unlikely to occur to the user on reading our definition. There's no bending here: the insect folds one wing over the other. To make it clearer you'd have to say sth like "to fold (one's wings)" "to close" isn't very good either -- it's quite ambiguous. J Some flowers shut up at night as if( they were) to sleep. 一些花在晚上合拢了花瓣，好像要睡觉似的。 Cupping his hands, the captain called, "Did you find the lost man?" 船长将双手合拢在嘴边朝小船大声喊道：“你们找到那个失踪的人了吗?” |

Nsima is sometimes made from other flours, such as millet or sorghum flour, and is sometimes mixed with cassava flour.[citation needed] It is cooked in boiling water or milk until it reaches a stiff or firm dough-like consistency.[2] |

<< review queue entry 66697 - submitted by 'lionel_rowe' >> Unfortunately, it seems there isn't much consensus as to the standard terminology for "ADHD" in Chinese; however, it looks like this is the single most common permutation (except from "多动症", which isn't really accurate but is far and away the most common colloquially, at least in mainland China). This was obtained by running the following query in the Chrome dev console on google.com: (async () => { const one = ['注意力']; const two = ['缺陷', '缺失', '不足']; const three = ['', '多动', '过动']; const four = ['症', '障碍']; let terms = []; one.forEach(_1 => { two.forEach(_2 => { three.forEach(_3 => { four.forEach(_4 => { terms.push(`${_1}${_2}${_3}${_4}`); }); }); }); }); terms = terms.filter(t => t.length > 2); const out = await Promise.all(terms.map(async term => { const r = await fetch(`/search?q="${term}"`) const t = await r.text() const m = t.match(/[0-9,]+(?=\s+results)/) return { term, count: parseInt(m?.[0].replace(/,/g, '')) } })) console.log(out.sort((a, b) => b.count - a.count)); })(); Overall results were as follows: [ { "term": "注意力缺陷多动症", "count": 181000 }, { "term": "注意力不足过动症", "count": 174000 }, { "term": "注意力缺陷障碍", "count": 142000 }, { "term": "注意力缺陷多动障碍", "count": 76200 }, { "term": "注意力缺失症", "count": 57300 }, { "term": "注意力缺陷过动症", "count": 54900 }, { "term": "注意力缺陷过动障碍", "count": 36100 }, { "term": "注意力缺失过动症", "count": 17200 }, { "term": "注意力缺陷症", "count": 17000 }, { "term": "注意力缺失过动障碍", "count": 16700 }, { "term": "注意力不足多动症", "count": 15400 }, { "term": "注意力不足过动障碍", "count": 12900 }, { "term": "注意力缺失多动症", "count": 12700 }, { "term": "注意力不足症", "count": 7470 }, { "term": "注意力不足多动障碍", "count": 3780 }, { "term": "注意力缺失障碍", "count": 2580 }, { "term": "注意力缺失多动障碍", "count": 1760 }, { "term": "注意力不足障碍", "count": 702 } ] Note that Google will lock you out with a Captcha if it thinks you're making too many automated requests. -------------------------- Editor: Thanks -- I tweaked your submission to add "(ADHD)" at the end as you suggested.

<< review queue entry 66690 - submitted by 'pzelchenko' >> You might also consider changing the straight 卡式 entry to broaden the definition from tapes to many things that are based on a retractable cassette. ------------------------------------ Editor: Thanks. I don't think they're called "cassette stoves" except maybe in Chinglish. I imagine the fuel could be butane, for example, not necessarily propane. Many references to 卡式炉 suggest that they are used outdoors, which isn't what "tabletop cooking" suggests to me. E.g. 户外游玩，除了卡式炉，我们也经常会用分体式气炉。 I will indeed propose a change in the definition of 卡式, along the lines of 1. (of a device) designed to accept a cassette, cartridge or canister (loanword from "cassette") 2. card-operated (also written 插卡式) (loanword from "card") |

<< review queue entry 66683 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> I think "oddly" should be "odd". What's an adverb doing in the middle of three adjectival synonyms anyway? "grotesque" (i.e. "repulsively ugly") seems off the mark. "strange" seems worthy of being included. "queer" is apt, but it usually means sth different these days. "eccentric" is perhaps not the best one to start the definition with. |
