<< review queue entry 71963 >> 解气 jiě//qì 动 消除心中的气愤。 女儿多次被校霸欺负，妈妈的做法实在太解气了 ------------------------------------------ Editor: I don't think the proposed definition is right. It doesn't match the Chinese definition, 消除心中的气愤, which (literally) means "to dispel the anger one feels in one's heart". "Giving vent to one's anger" means *expressing* one's anger through harsh words or violent actions. That's 撒气, not 解气. 泄 means "give vent" whereas 解 means "dispel; remove". Here are some examples of 解气 usage where feelings of anger are dispelled, but not by means of venting that anger. 1) 气大伤身，推荐一款“解气”茶 爱生气多喝这款茶: * 疏肝解郁玫瑰花 中医认为，玫瑰花味甘微苦，性温，入肝、脾二经。有行气解郁，和血，止痛之功效。... * 三花茶 三花茶具有疏肝解郁、降脂降压等作用。... 2) The following example expresses the thoughts of a girl who is pissed off with a guy who is so wrapped up in his own problems that he hasn't been paying attention to her: 现在你手拿可乐回来了，一副边走边沉思的样子，我恨不得你跌一跤才解气，可你并未跌跤。 "So now I see you coming back with our drinks -- walking and thinking. I was hoping you'd trip, but you didn't." 你跌一跤才解气 means "only if you tripped would my anger be assuaged", not "only if you tripped would I give vent to my anger." * * * Also, 解气 is often used as an adjective: - 太解气 - 那么解气 - 很解气 - 最解气 etc. That is the case in your example (妈妈的做法实在太解气了). Video title: 女儿多次被校霸欺负，妈妈的做法实在太解气了 https://v.qq.com/x/page/l3356gvofo1.html 实在太解气了 here refers to how the viewer feels (namely, gratified to see the villains get their comeuppance) when they watch the video. It does not mean that anyone (the mother, the daughter, or the viewer) gives vent to their anger. Here are some similar examples: - 最后反杀也太解气了！ - 太解气了，坏人终于得到她应有的报应了. Q: 你做过什么让你解气的事？ A: 事情不是我做的，但是很解气。事情发生在一家糖葫芦店，这家店糖葫芦好吃又便宜，有很多人买。当时我和其他人一样在排队，突然旁边有个大妈立马插队到前面去。看到这种人我很不舒服，但我深知大妈的战斗力，挤地铁就跟玩似的，看起来毫无空间的地铁，一堆大妈能挤得我气都喘不上来。所以，我也没说话，我不想和大妈怼。然而，我发现店员好像把大妈当空气一样，总是把糖葫芦给后面的人。大妈好几次伸手要糖葫芦，均被店员无视。这个时候，大妈忍不住了，摆出一副撒泼的姿势，大声呵斥道，你们还做不做生意了，凭什么不给我。我以为店员会有麻烦，结果店员连看都不看一下，继续招呼后面的客人，只是冷冷的说了一声，我们不卖给插队的人。大妈脾气也爆了，马上用了一套泼妇骂街的话指责这个店员。这个店员停了一下，大声说道，想要吃就排队去。说完头也不回继续招呼客人，任凭她胡闹，就是把大妈当空气了。这个时候轮到我了，我给了店员一个甜美的微笑，并说了声谢谢。大妈没办法，对于根本不理她且态度坚决的人，完全处于弱势，最后灰溜溜排队去了。顺便一提，店员是年轻漂亮的小姐姐哦！ |
