<< review queue entry 85434 - submitted by 'braulio' >> 『那张弓的影子映在酒杯里』from《杯弓蛇影》 ---------------- Editor: 映 is predominantly used in compounds, and its various dictionary glosses are better understood as contextual realizations of a single core meaning inferred from compound usage, with the apparent variation supplied by the other character in the compound (e.g. direction, inversion or illumination). This formulation also covers examples such as 影子映在酒杯里, where 映 simply denotes the shadow becoming visible on a surface, without requiring a separate sense like "to cast a shadow". |
| Diff: |
