GF: 形 贫寒;穷苦。
日子过得很清苦。

M:
1. 清寒貧苦。「官人向來清苦,今得此美任,此後只愁富貴不愁貧了。」亦作「清貧」。
2. 窮困而不失節。「他父親太守公是個清官,當初在任上時,過些清苦日子。」亦作「清貧」。

He lived a poor life in his childhood and developed interests in reading, calligraphy and seal cutting.
他幼年时生活清苦,酷爱读书,喜欢书法篆刻。

Her spinning wheel and the milk of a cow which she had purchased with the little money she had with her sufficed for the scanty subsistence of herself and her growing son.
她纺纱织布,并用仅有的一点钱买来一头奶牛,以此来维持母子俩的清苦生活。

Not long after he was born, his father died and his mother and the boy somehow eked out a poor existence together.
孔子出生后不久父亲就死了,母子俩相依为命,生活非常清苦。
