<< review queue entry 69166 - submitted by 'aaronwong' >> https://www.bustle.com/life/94986-what-does-stan-mean-everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-slang-term https://theoutline.com/post/2425/when-stan-became-a-verb -------------------------------------- Editor: 1) As far as I can see, it's "stan FOR someone" rather than "stan someone". See examples below.* 2) Stanning seems to be a more extreme behavior than 粉. (To quote a dictionary definition of "stan" -- "exhibit fandom to an extreme or excessive degree".) 3) You didn't provide any examples of usage for either 粉 or 站, and that made them harder to check, especially since this new sense isn't in dictionaries (yet). 4) I didn't see enough usage of 站 to justify adding it. I did see a few things like 所以站他的人很少，骂他的人很多，... but not enough to be sure about it. 5) 粉 is in Wiktionary. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E7%B2%89#Etymology_2 6) Examples for 粉 as a verb: 飯圈用語科普 仰臥起坐什麼意思什麼梗？ 飯圈用語，意思是粉上某人，又脫粉，又粉上，又脫粉這麼一個反反覆覆來來回回的行爲。 因为rapper们大多都比较不羁，所以粉上他们，塌房的概率比起一般艺人， 有不少“路人”因此心疼肖战，觉得他无辜而自发粉上了他。 很多粉絲之所以粉他，正是因為迷戀上他那360°無死角的帥氣臉龐。 马天宇粉丝之所以粉他，是因为长得好看，身材超好，超级可爱一个人，声音好听，歌声温柔，演技超好，超级文艺，爱好旅行，会和羽毛分享旅行轶事，气质绝佳， 粉丝之所以粉他，一是他三观正，二是他颜值高，三是他充满正能量， 而且為人特別謙遜，懂得尊重前輩，而且也賣力，這也是我很粉他的原因，陽光積極不做作。 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - * Examples of "stan for sb": - ‘y'all know I stan for Katy Perry, so I was excited to see the artwork for her upcoming album’ - Can't a gay man in his mid twenties just stan for Little Mix and live? - Why was this blogger "stanning" for Zayn from One Direction (RIP)? - "Ugh, Mom, you're such a stan for Masterpiece Theater!" - "Ugh, Dad, stop stanning for Bob Dylan already!" - the first recorded use of “stan” as a verb that they have found so far was in a tweet from April 2008: “I stan for santogold. I may even like her more than MIA.” - "I stanned pretty hard for Christina [Aguilera] as a teen; I remember begging my mom for tickets to the Justified/Stripped tour, and even from our nosebleed seats, Christina's voice was stunning." - "Pop fandom has historically been embodied by the screaming white girl. But the rise of queer men 'stanning' for pop divas signals the growing power of fan perspectives outside the straight white norm." |

It wasn't a trophy, it was an urn. It contained my wife's ashes- besides this bar, it was the most important thing in my life. 哪些个杂碎偷走了它。那并不是个玩意儿，那是个骨灰盒。我老婆住在里面－了这个酒吧那是我生命中最重要的东西了。 Dante: Damn it!

You're going to pay for that. 但丁:该死的!你们这些杂碎完全毁坏了我的事务所!我还没能来得及给他命名呢!你们得准备好为此付出相应的代价。 If you'd come in friendship, the scum who ruined your daughter would be suffering this very day. 如果你以朋友身份来找我，那么伤害你女儿的杂碎当天就会受到折磨。 |

Their writing is incoherent and even in spoken language they show a tendency towards the abbreviated, partially formed language favored by commercials; in the end, their actual meaning evaporates in a flash of fragmented information. 那么有些客户很婆婆妈妈的，会跟你说，哎呀，我为什么要买这个东西，因为呢，我妈妈怎么样，然后呢我爸爸怎么样，我女儿怎么样。然后呢，哎呀，说了半天。但是你不要以为就是他们都是在啰里啰唆当中说，你的销售线索往往就是从这些杂碎的东西里面获得的。 Some customers just go on and on, and they'll say, "Ah, the reason I have to buy this thing is that my mom is like this, and then my dad is like that, and my daughter is like that." And then she's said a lot. But don't think that she's just babbling on aimlessly. Your sales clues are usually obtained from that random babble. |

<< review queue entry 69540 - submitted by 'malcolm_schonfield' >> Several dictionaries I have readily available on my phone (ABC, GF, XHD, PLC), and baidu, give chen5, not chen2. moedict.tw gives chuan2 however. Anyway I'm not 100% sure about this one. ----------------------------- Editor: It's undoubtedly pronounced both ways. 2nd tone is probably more prevalent in Taiwan. However, on Forvo, both of the speakers labeled "from China" pronounce it with 2nd tone, to my ear at least. https://forvo.com/word/%E6%97%A9%E6%99%A8/#zh Also, the pronunciation on the ChinesePod Glossary is marked as chen2, and I think most of the speakers in their audio samples indeed use 2nd tone. https://chinesepod.com/dictionary/english-chinese/%E6%97%A9%E6%99%A8 (You probably won't be able to view that page unless you have an account. It should work with even a free account, though.) So while I can see dictionaries are saying chen5, it seems it's quite often chen2, and I'm unable to determine the relative frequency. |

This question of authenticity can be a further psychological burden on those whose original interest in dZi beads was to ward off evil and thus attain peace of mind. 在相當於今日狂飆、功利的年代，老子見到爾虞我詐，人性被灼傷，正面推動教化的好意常達不到效果。 In a hell-for-leather, success- and profit-oriented age similar to our own, Laozi saw deceit and treachery all around, and human nature twisted. |

Many people were taken by their parents deep into the mountains to be tattooed in secret. The preconditions for having tattoos were gradually relaxed. Males no longer had to have hunted a human head, and females no longer had to be able to weave. 「對布農人而言，槍支象徵榮譽、生命，」楊南郡表示，沒收槍械的舉措對布農人彷彿晴天霹靂，反彈強烈。一九一五年，位於今天國家公園東南方的拉庫拉庫溪流域各社，因為沒收私藏武器衝突，連續爆發了嚴重的抗警攻擊，包括著名的喀西帕南事件、大分事件等，驍勇善戰的布農族將二十八個日警馘首。大分事件的首領拉荷阿雷和阿里曼•西肯兄弟也從此展開了長達十八年的抗日游擊活動，讓日警疲於奔命。 "For the Bunun people, firearms symbolized honor and life," says Nelson Yang. Confiscation of their weapons, basically hunting rifles, came like a bolt out of the blue for the Bunun, and they reacted violently. In 1915 the villages along the Lakulaku River southeast of today's Yushan National Park erupted when private stashes of rifles were confiscated. A series of serious resistance attacks broke out, including the famous Qasibanan and Tafen incidents. The brave Bunun warriors, fierce headhunters, succeeded in lopping off the heads of 18 Japanese policemen for their pe-gaga ceremony. |

In the run-up to the US presidential election, there has been an effort by anti-Communist forces in the US to "demonize" China, and Jiang's address to the UN-which was very friendly in tone and was delivered in English-is widely believed to have effectively improved the negative image of China in the US.

<< review queue entry 68944 - submitted by 'sl89' >> * All the usage examples I've seen are in the military context, but most dictionaries include the sense "to give moral support". 【Wenlin】 v[erb].o[bject construction]. ① assist in a fight ② bolster sb.'s morale 【Pleco】 VERB 1 assist in battle 2 bolster morale; back up; give moral support 【LAC】 1. 协助作战。 | 友军从后方赶来～。 2. 助威。 | 呐喊～ | 擂鼓～ | 这场校际足球赛，有不少同学前去～。 【MoE】 協助作戰。 | 《三國演義．第五回》：「劉玄德掣雙股劍，驟黃鬃馬，刺斜裡也來助戰。」 | 《儒林外史．第三九回》：「只聽得山頭炮響，你們便喊殺回來助戰，不可有誤。」 关羽见张飞胜不了吕布,便舞动青龙偃月宝刀前去助战。 At the sight of his sworn Brother Zhang Fei unable to gain an upper hand, Guan Yu lifted his crescent-moon shaped sword to join the Battle. 那个公国的君主召令他的藩臣出兵助战。 The duke summoned his feudatories to aid him in war. 豆子每天都看到我带了锄头来助战，把它们的敌人杀伤了，战壕里填满了败草的尸体。 Daily the beans saw me come to their rescue armed with a hoe, and thin the ranks of their enemies, filling up the trenches with weedy dead. |

<< review queue entry 69514 - submitted by 'xyz' >> Data from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zhang_Lu_(painter) ------------------------------------- Editor: In principle, you can scrape *all* of the many thousands of names in Chinese Wikipedia (people, places, book titles etc) and their English equivalents, to derive a large C-E name dictionary. Pleco, for one, has stated that they are going to do that after their version 4 is released. I don't think it makes much sense for us to continue manually adding a tiny fraction of those names one by one (except for the most important and relevant proper names, such as Chinese province names.) |

<< review queue entry 69516 - submitted by 'xyz' >> See https://ctext.org/art-of-war/tactical-dispositions#n20931 for sample usage; not sure how common it is --------------------------------- Editor: 1) cc-cedict doesn't try to be useful to people reading ancient writings such as "The Art of War." 2) 故曰 doesn't mean "hence the saying". It means "hence people say ...". It's an archaic way of saying 所以说. For example, 烏龜又被稱為玄武，《禮記》曲禮解釋，龜有甲，能禦侮，故曰武，加上黑色，故曰玄，因此取名玄武。 <<The tortoise is also known as the "xuanwu," which means "black soldier." The Book of Rites explains that turtles and tortoises have armor-like exteriors (hence "soldier"), and they are dark in color (hence "black").>> 故曰武 doesn't mean "hence the saying 'soldier' " ("soldier" is not a saying), and 故曰玄 doesn't mean "hence the saying 'black' " ("black" is not a saying). I'm not saying the translation at the Chinese Text Project is wrong. It's fine in that context. I'm saying that, in general, you can't take words in a translation and expect them to work, out of context, as a *definition*. 3) In any case, cc-cedict says 故 means "hence", and 曰 means "to say". I think that makes the meaning of 故曰 clear enough. |
