<< review queue entry 82359 - submitted by 'polaris' >> 选边站 xuǎnbiānzhàn - 《全球华语大词典》 「选定一边站队，比喻赞成、支持某一方的立场」 當主管要你「選邊站」，謹記這四個可以讓你全身而退的秘訣 ……不只让外界注意到辜振甫家族，这回难得「选边站」，且身为妇联会大家长的她，也影响妇联会成员。 法總統馬克龍：毋須在中美「選邊站」 香格里拉對話登場 美防長拉攏東南亞 -------------------- Editor: "To pick one's battles" means "to choose not to participate in minor, unimportant, or overly difficult arguments, contests, or confrontations, saving one's strength instead for those that will be of greater importance or where one has a greater chance of success." That's not what 选边站 means. 現實世界中有太多遭遇家庭變故的孩子，因為捲入成人世界而被迫選邊站。 "All too many children are forced to choose sides in battles that erupt between the adults in their world." 即因不願選邊站而得罪當道， "Wu refused to take sides, ..." 等到初二林小姐該回娘家時，公婆也會開開心心地跟她一起回娘家，不必選邊站的林小姐夫妻倆也樂得輕鬆。 This arrangement makes things a lot easier and more relaxed for her and her husband, who are not caught up in having to "choose sides" when it comes to who spends what day with whom. |
