<< review queue entry 68483 - submitted by 'laconst83' >> 现在买蟹的人还不是很多,但对于想尝鲜的人来说,今年刚上市的螃蟹变得更加亲民。 Now there are not many people who want to buy crabs, but for those who want to taste them, the crabs that have just been on the market this year have become more people-friendly. 有一半使用者是女性，鉴于电子产品的尝鲜者通常以男性居多，这一点着实让人印象深刻。 Half of its users are women, which is impressive given that early adopters for electronic products are often men. |

People without this experience probably find it difficult to appreciate what exactly the attraction of sitting in front of a machine and communicating with a faceless stranger is. 有一天，孫翠鳳回到家，看到了一個皮膚黝黑，頭上頂著五分平頭，身上穿著老式西裝褲的陳勝福，這個看起來和孫翠鳳完全是兩個世界、素未謀面的表哥，一眼就喜歡上這個亮麗又活潑的表妹，在眾親人的鼓吹下，這兩個看起來十分不登對的表兄妹開始交往。 One day Sun returned home to find a dark-skinned, crew-cropped lad in an old-fashioned suit in the house. It was her cousin from Pingtung, Chen Sheng-fu, whom she'd never clapped eyes on before. Chen looked like he'd stepped out of another universe, in total contrast to that inhabited by Sun. Nevertheless, the lad was instantly smitten by his vivacious cousin, and with encouragement from their relatives this odd couple began to date. |

There are thousands upon thousands of business names, notable people, book titles, movie characters. We can't spend time on more than a small proportion of them, so I think it's best to restrict attention to just the very important ones. Wikipedia does a good job of documenting proper names. Let's leave it to them, and focus mainly on verbs, adjectives, common nouns and the like -- our core mission. |

An oxygenator is "an apparatus that oxygenates the blood extracorporeally (as during open-heart surgery)". https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/oxygenator https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygenator That's not what India desperately needs at the moment. What they need is *oxygen concentrators*.

"An oxygen concentrator is a device that concentrates the oxygen from a gas supply (typically ambient air) by selectively removing nitrogen to supply an oxygen-enriched product gas stream." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_concentrator The matching Chinese Wikipedia article is titled 製氧機: 製氧機又叫氧氣濃縮器，是一種設備，當氣體（通常是環境當中的空氣）放入該機器時，製氧機可以選擇性地去除氮氣來濃縮氣體當中的氧氣，從而生成富含氧氣的氣體。家用醫用制氧機於20世紀70年代初發明。 Web ~ "What is an Oxygen Concentrator?

Consequently, shorter calligraphies have come into fashion. These include four-character calligraphies such as “The money rolls in” or single characters for “Spring” (春—chun) or “Good Fortune” (福—fu) which are placed upside down to convey the idea that spring or wealth has arrived (“upside down” is a homonym for “arrived” in Mandarin). Four characters that mean “ushering in wealth and prosperity” (招財進寶—zhao cai jin bao) are also frequently combined into one character. 即使是小幅的花卉，像李复堂、徐青藤的作品，也有一股豪迈潇洒之气跃然纸上。 Even in a small piece of flower-and-plant painting, such as those by Li Futangor Xu Qingteng, one would feel the throbbing of a brave, unchained heart. |
