Since we started to systematically promote gifted education in 2001, we have seen a growing number of exceptionally gifted local teenagers rise to fame by winning top awards in international competitions. Editor: TP~ 然而他的天賦異稟在被一個苦難的時代燒過淹過攆過壓過之後，竟然走到了一個夢想無法抵達的所在，必須以文字傾洩其魔幻寫實一般的際遇。 However, a world in turmoil took his extraordinary talents, fired them, quenched them, pressure-rolled them, and put him on a path to a place he had never dreamed of. The written word, it turned out, was the only escape route for the thoughts in his head. 司馬中原天賦異稟，這要分兩方面來說， Sima was prodigiously talented in two different ways.

It's a sequence of two adjectives (meaning "ten" and "great" respectively). As a sequence of adjectives, 十大 needs to be followed by a noun, as in "David被评选为公司十大杰出青年。" .. whereas "top ten" doesn't. "In a new list of best travel websites, ours makes it into the top ten." 2) Is the entry needed? 世界五大知識產權局 means "the world's big five IP offices".

Comment:	<< review queue entry 65546 - submitted by 'pepe' >> Could be argued that it's just a combination of 莞尔+一笑, but OCC and ABC both have this separate entry with "to give a faint/soft smile" as definition, which is different from 莞尔 = smiling. Baidu Baike 莞尔一笑是一个汉语成语，拼音是wǎn ěr yī xiào，形容微笑。意思是说，于是互相展颜微笑。出自《论语·阳货》：“夫子莞尔而笑曰：‘杀鸡焉用牛刀！” --------------------------------------------- Editor: 1) Based on other dictionary definitions and examples of usage, I would say that "faint" is going a bit too far. As for "soft", I think a typical smile is "soft", so there isn't much difference between "to smile" and "to give a soft smile". 2) 莞爾 is a verb: "to smile" (or "to give a soft smile" if you prefer). It's effectively an abbreviated form of 莞爾一笑. 3) I'll accept 莞尔一笑, but I want to point out that, like previous submissions of yours, it's marginal in terms of the value it adds to the dictionary. Please submit words that aren't more or less the sum of their parts: 无污染 = 无 + 污染非主流 = 非 + 主流 and so on. A word like 非主流 tends to generate debate between us editors about whether it's worth including, which wastes time really. We'd prefer to work on new words or fix mistakes in existing entries.
