similar to most dicts, but English sounds strange; does not cover it, might be the source
of misunderstandings.

Examples:
N (English mine)
女儿出嫁后,妈妈省心多了。she feels relieved, she is more at peace
不用谢我,莉莉挺让人省心的。she causes no trouble (people are not saved worry, they
don't feel *any* worry)

others:
哪个女人都不省心 all women are a source of trouble (not "all women are relieved of
worry")
(I seem to remember that one from 非诚勿扰 II)
不省心的全装修房 (web)
Diff:
- 省心 省心 [sheng3 xin1] /to save worry/
+ 省心 省心 [sheng3 xin1] /to cause no trouble/to be spared worry/worry-free/
