<< review queue entry 57674 - submitted by 'ycandau' >> following Rich's change for 冷語 here again we have a pattern of "all Chinese words have the same definition" 冷言冷語 is not verbal 冷語冰人, on the contrary, is verbal (or predicate) M: 以冷淡的言語對人。比喻待人冷漠無情。 LA: 用冷淡、刻薄的言語對待他人。比喻待人冷漠無情。 例 「朋友相聚應該是一件快樂的事，他卻冷語冰人，搞得大家不歡而散」。 Z: 冷语冰人(用尖刻的话对待人) Editor: 1. you can check that all dicts see that as nominal (as do I). A fixed expression can be used as predicate. But I am OK to add a gloss. 2. I'm not sure that 冰人 is exactly "offend". But have to move on. Thx for all the comments. |
