<< review queue entry 53965 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> K TP ~ 也有人以為，此書令人難以置信，但描述動人，特具娛樂效果。 Some people came to the opinion that, although Chambers' descriptions were moving and his book was certainly entertaining, it was hard to believe. I don't think "to be confident in" works well. Any examples where that's better than (or even as good as) "to believe"? "confidence" is not so good either. As far as I can see, it never means "confidence" in the noun sense, and as an attributive, it's not necessary, because we have a number of examples of that usage in entries such as: 置信限 置信限 [zhi4 xin4 xian4] /confidence limit (math.)/ 置信係數 置信系数 [zhi4 xin4 xi4 shu4] /confidence coefficient (math.)/ 置信水平 置信水平 [zhi4 xin4 shui3 ping2] /confidence level (math.)/ 置信區間 置信区间 [zhi4 xin4 qu1 jian1] /confidence interval (math.)/ Alternatively, we could include something like /(math.) confidence (interval etc)/ Editor: Rich's wording |
