<< review queue entry 83266 - submitted by 'mako207' >> From these dictionaries: Chinesenotes Dictionary: https://chinesenotes.com/words/108159.html Revised Mandarin Dictionary: https://dict.revised.moe.edu.tw/dictView.jsp?ID=21855&q=1&word=%E4%B8%8D%E4%BA%A6 Example Sentence (From the beginning of The Analects 論語 by Confucius 孔子): 子曰：「學而時習之，不亦說乎？有朋自遠方來，不亦樂乎？人不知而不慍，不亦君子乎？」 ----------------------- Editor: 「宅中有園，園中有屋，屋中有院，院中有樹，樹上有天，天上有月，不亦快哉！」 [Reading Lin’s The Importance of Living, we can learn that his philosophy of life is exactly the same as an idea that is often advocated today—downshifting. Lin Yutang was surrounded by life.
