<< review queue entry 55861 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> "you only have to lift a finger" seems off. I think it's best expressed as a noun phrase (as it is in Chinese). J A K 只是「舉手之勞」的捐精尚且如此，更何況是取卵手續麻煩的捐卵。 This is the case for sperm even though donation is an easy task, and all the more so for ova, where a more onerous retrieval procedure is required. 地下水亦是舉手之勞就能取得。 Groundwater can also be obtained with little effort. |
