I'm so honored the British prime minister has crossed an ocean to show his unity with America. Thank you for coming friend. 當年二十歲的巴信誠，也是這八千名山東流亡學生中的一員。萬里迢迢離鄉背井，父母怎麼捨得呢？ Then 20 years old, Pa Hsin-cheng was one of these 8,000. Why were his parents willing to let him wander so far from his family and home? https://www.taiwan-panorama.com/Articles/Details?Guid=ed59d5b3-5798-4f2b-bf83-09e0ab7391c3&CatId=1 1996年，台灣舉辦首次總統直選、對岸中國以飛彈演習恫嚇時，「新港媽」曾經坐船出巡澎湖、鎮守台灣海峽；這次為了爭取入聯，「新港媽」又萬里迢迢，赴紐約踩街出巡。 In 1996, while Taiwan held its first direct presidential election under the threat of Chinese missile tests, the Mazu icon from Hsinkang was taken around the Penghu Islands to protect the Taiwan Strait. Now the Mazu icon has made another long trip, this time to New York to help in Taiwan's bid to join the UN. https://www.taiwan-panorama.com/Articles/Details?Guid=e3486ea3-28be-4976-8816-8ad985d125dc&CatId=1 |

<< review queue entry 65135 - submitted by 'goldyn_chyld' >> https://flambo.pixnet.net/blog/post/28921812 GI etc ------------------------------- Editor: 1) Possibly a neologism, since it's not in dictionaries and doesn't appear in TP until 2007, but fairly frequently thereafter. 2) Almost as many results for trad as for simp, which suggests it may have originated in Tw. trad 3.7 million simp 5.8 million 3) It's interesting that when I search for 摆盘, Google shows, on the right side of the screen, some information headed "Food presentation (擺盤)", yet when I put the word into Google Translate, it translates as "wobble plate"! It seems Google Translate isn't as smart as Google Search. 4) It also means "balance wheel (of a watch or clock)" (see PLC, K) 摆轮什么意思：bǎilún钟表内等时运动系统中的主要元件。外为圆环，中有轮辐。也叫摆盘。 http://www.ichacha.net/%E6%91%86%E8%BD%AE.html 5) TP 運用擺盤設計，讓充滿「原味」的餐點大受歡迎。 With a nice presentation, these "traditional" meals were very well received. 擺盤及上菜充滿虛實、進退的禪趣，讓用餐者彷彿體驗了一場「身心洗禮」。 The food presentation and the service are imbued with a Zen sense of being and nothingness, of ebb and flow-so that diners experience a "baptism of the spirit." 位於台北101大樓85樓、充滿時尚感的101食藝軒，即是現階段的最新考察成果：道地的台式口味，以西餐流程（餐前酒、冷盤、前菜、主菜、甜點）上菜，佐以日式擺盤增添進餐情趣。 Located on Taipei 101's 85th floor, Shin Yeh 101 has a hip feel to it, with authentic Taiwanese food, Western pacing of the courses, and Japanese presentation. 赤鬼的廚房宛如生產線，專人埋首煎烤、專人負責夾肉與擺盤出菜，出菜速度快，不容易出錯，翻桌率高。 The kitchen at Steak Aka-oni is like a production line, a specialist in charge of cooking, another in charge of placing food on plates, and so forth. The result is fast service with few errors, as well as a high customer turnover rate. 攤開餐廳內、外場的工序檢查表，內容密密麻麻一、兩百項，每道菜從選料、刀工、烹煮、調味、擺盤到出菜，各個環節都有量化規定， The chain’s process checklist, which covers more than 100 items, is incredibly detailed. There are instructions on how to select, chop, and cook ingredients, as well as on seasoning, plating, and serving. 還可清楚看到廚房切肉、擺盤、炒料的一舉一動。 With its open kitchen design, diners can enjoy their meal while being able to watch the chefs at work. 仔細擺盤後，Lina拿著相機拍攝照片， After arranging the dish to look its most attractive, Lina takes photos, 6) Web examples of verb (v.o.) usage: 再來如果想擺盤得更美，就得靠碗盤的花色囉！ 怎麼把煎餅卷大蔥擺盤得看起來值1000塊 · 廚師們都好厲害！擺盤得好漂亮👏👏👏 7) plate up: to put food on a plate, ready for serving https://www.dictionary.com/browse/plate-up |

<< review queue entry 64639 - submitted by 'sl89' >> Both senses, sound of laughter and stammering, are well attested; the issue here is the pronunciation. ABC says it can be pronounced chīchī or qīqī and both are types of laughter (stifled and giggling), no other dictionary distinguishes types of laughter. 现代汉语大词典 says when read chīchī it's the sound of stammering, while when read qīqī it is the sound of laughter. 规范词典 only has the pronunciation chīchī which for both the sound of laughter and stammering (&枪弹声等). I'm submitting both senses I have evidence for and the only pronunciation I have no doubts about. 【Wenlin】 chīchī: on. sound of stifled laugh See also qīqī qīqī: on. sound of giggling See also chīchī 【Pleco（chīchī）】 ONOMATOPOEIA giggle; titter; chuckle | 她吃吃地笑出声来。 | She giggled. 【规范（chīchī）】 拟声 模拟笑声､口吃声和枪弹声等 | 他听了吃吃直笑 | 一急就吃吃地说不下去 | 子弹从耳边吃吃飞过。 【现代汉语大词典】 chīchī：形容说话结结巴巴。 | ‘这这些些都是费话’, 又一个学者吃吃的说, 立刻把鼻尖胀得通红。 鲁迅《理水》 qīqī：形容笑声。 | 我忽而听到夜半的笑声, 吃吃地, 似乎不愿意惊动睡着的人。 鲁迅《秋夜》 她高兴地发出吃吃笑声. She gave a delighted giggle. 他在她后面紧紧地跟着,她听见他一路吃吃地暗笑. He was close behind her and she could hear him laughing softly to himself. 我弟弟看漫画书的时候总是会吃吃地笑. My brother always chuckles when he reads a comic book. 他经常说话吃吃的. He often stammers during his speeches. 那人点一点头，眼睛仍然向上瞪着；也低声吃吃的说道，“你看，——看这是什么呢？” The other woman nods, but her eyes do not move from the spot on which they are fixed. Her voice is gentle, too, as she stammers, "Look . . . look there . . . what . . . what's that?" (Lyell) 鲁迅《药》 当初，是自己的耳朵也听到自己的嘴说些什么的，可是逐渐胡涂起来，竟至于不再知道说什么，待到发挥"石勒之雄图"的时候，便只听得吃吃地窃笑的声音了。 At first, his ears made him aware of the words that were coming from his mouth, but then gradually they tuned out and he no longer knew what his mouth was saying. By the time he got to "The Ambitious Plans of Shi Le," he heard nothing but a swelling flood of laughter that now burst through the dikes of lips no longer able to contain it. (Lyell) 鲁迅《高老夫子》 ----------------------------- Editor: 1) ABC says its entry 吃吃 ³qīqī on. sound of giggling is based on Far East dictionary ("reference vfe192a1"), but my copy of that dictionary has an entry that says the pronunciation is jíjí (but is otherwise identical to ABC's). It may be a case of ABC copying incorrectly. 2) Grand Ricci has an entry for 吃吃而笑 in which 吃吃 is pronounced jíjí. 3) Grand Ricci says 吃吃 is onomatopoeia for the sound of a muffled laugh ("un rire étouffé"). In other words, 吃吃 is different from an unrestrained 哈哈 -- as you would expect from the pronunciation of those two words. |

But perhaps we will have thinkers, artists, writers, and athletes, from all kinds of social backgrounds. Or perhaps we needn't become any particular thing; maybe each individual can find stability and satisfaction in his or her own space, no matter what they are doing and where. Perhaps, like Zhu Xi, the Song dynasty thinker whose life we also examine in this issue, we can just feel the pure joy of learning. Wouldn't that be the best choice of all? ‘犯不上，你们还是不剪上算，——等一等罢。’ 'Because cutting it off is just not worth the trouble.' (Lyell) “It's not worth it .

<< 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. |

<< review queue entry 65537 - submitted by 'pepe' >> Found in PLC, OCC, ADS, GF Web 是指在记账的基础上计算反映企业的经营活动和成果或行政事业单位预算资金的收支或结余。 --------------------------------- Editor: Technically, we already have it, but in the variant form 算帐. Since 算账 is more common and is considered a more correct form (at least by some), I'll make it the headword of our entry. |

<< review queue entry 65541 - submitted by 'pzelchenko' >> i've heard this used in various parts of speech including 她的报复, 他很报复 Otherwise there is nothing on a search for vindictive* ------------------------------- Editor: 1) I don't think 報復 can mean "vindictiveness". 她的报复 could mean "her revenge", and we have "revenge" in the definition already. 报复心 means "vindictiveness" or "vengeful nature" – but I don't think 报复 does. 2) I doubt that 報復 can mean "vindictive". "他很报复" does not appear on any webpage according to the Baidu search engine, and Google has only 7 results for that phrase. 3) 报复性 retaliatory e.g. 国会中的许多议员仍然希望美国采取主动权，对中国实施报复性关税。 ("Many in Congress still want the administration to take matters into its own hands and impose retaliatory tariffs.") |
