<< review queue entry 65460 - submitted by 'sl89' >> 【Wenlin】 v.o. 〈wr[itten].〉 ply chopsticks; start eating 【Pleco】 VERB LITERARY apply one's chopsticks to the food —start eating 【LAC】 〈书〉用筷子夹取食物。 | 食日万钱，犹曰无～处（《晋书‧卷三十三‧何曾列传》）。 【MoE】 用筷子夹取食物。 | 《晋书．卷三三．何曾传》：「食日万钱，犹曰无下箸处。」 | 《二十年目睹之怪现状．第八九回》：「到后来，大少爷死了，更是冷一顿，热一顿，甚至有不能下箸的时候。」 【规范】 动 <文> 用筷子夹食物(吃)。 國寶宴的第一道菜就是令人驚豔、亭亭玉立的翠玉白菜，精選來自彰化的娃娃菜，白菜上放了兩尾東港櫻花蝦偽裝螽斯，栩栩如生的造型讓人捨不得下箸。料理難處在，火候不能過熟，否則白菜軟爛站不住，而支撐白菜的那根湯匙狀容器也功不可沒，造型取自漢代的盥洗器皿「匜」（聲同宜）。 The first course in the National Treasure banquet menu is a real version of that mouthwatering Jadeite Cabbage-baby bok choy specially selected from Changhua with two sergestid shrimp from Pingtung's Tungkang on top to resemble the katydid and locust on the jade piece. So much like a work of art that it's almost a shame to eat, it is also tricky to make. It cannot be overcooked, or it won't be able to stand upright. There is craft in the small ladle-shaped dish that holds it up, as well. It was designed after a Han-era washing utensil called an yi. https://www.taiwan-panorama.com/Articles/Details?Guid=e70b8b02-e3a5-4180-9a90-6e4876b91485&CatId=1 他的長子巴中在替奶奶祝賀百歲壽誕的文章裡，提到小時候兄弟姊妹四人常看到父親在飯桌上，面對著滿桌菜餚思親流淚、難以下箸的情景。 In the congratulatory essay that Pa Hsin-cheng's eldest son Pa Chung wrote for his grandmother on her 100th birthday, he mentioned that when the four siblings were small they often saw their father burst into tears at big meals when his thoughts turned to his own parents. At such emotional times he could barely raise his chopsticks to eat. https://www.taiwan-panorama.com/Articles/Details?Guid=ed59d5b3-5798-4f2b-bf83-09e0ab7391c3&CatId=1 否则，也如孔庙里的太牢一般，虽然与猪羊一样，同是畜生，但既经圣人下箸，先儒们便不敢妄动了。 > Or perhaps it may have been related to the example of the Sacrificial Ox in the Confucian Temple. Although the ox is just as much a domestic animal as the pig or sheep, Confucian scholars would not dare commit the blasphemy of eating its meat once the spirit of Confucius had set his chopsticks to it during the sacrifice. (Lyell) > Or, alternatively, it may have been like the case of the sacrificial beef in the Confucian temple: although the beef was in the same category as the pork and mutton, being of animal origin just as they were, later Confucians did not dare touch it since the sage had enjoyed it. (Yangs) > Or maybe Ah-Q became as untouchable as the sacrificial beef in Confucius's ancestral temple – because the sage had once touched it with his sacred chopsticks, it acquired an aura of sanctity for his disciples. (Lovell) 鲁迅《阿Q正传》 她天真地劝太明吃，太明只稍微沾沾筷子而已。她母亲看太明对生鱼片未下箸，便对他说：“这是鲔鱼，你吃一片看看！” 吴浊流《亚细亚的孤儿》 父亲吃饭是最快的，他还是按着几十年前海军学堂的习惯，三分钟内就把饭吃完，离桌站起了。可是喜舅还是慢慢地啜，慢慢地吃，还总是把一片笋或一朵菜花，一粒花生翻来覆去地夹着看，不立时下箸 。 冰心《冰心全集第七卷》 1938年我采访滇缅路时，东缅一位土皇帝（官名土司）请我赴宴。他把珍品全摆在桌上了，可每一盘都赛过北京的臭豆腐！他以为我不大下箸 ，是客气，所以就拼命给我往碟子里布。小时候虽然吃过北京的臭豆腐，有过这方面的训练，但是对每碗每碟菜无一不臭，我思想里可缺乏准备！ 《人民日报》1999 |
