<< review queue entry 61072 - submitted by 'vermillon' >> My proposition sucks, I know. Pleco has "stand as a mark of respect". Most examples I see clearly refer to the second def anyway, so perhaps it should go first. 这时，警察就会肃立敬礼。 14时28分，全国人民集体肃立默哀3分钟。 感觉这一棵棵秀丽挺拔的白桦树就像一个个肃立的卫士一样。 全体肃立，出旗，奏乐！ |

<< review queue entry 60980 - submitted by 'vermillon' >> Fairly construct-y, but LAC and Pleco have it. Seems linked to state-planned economy, perhaps, in which case the def could be expanded? (leaving it here in case someone already knows about this, before I have time to look into it) ------------------------------------- Editor: To me, the term "commodity grain" wasn't much more helpful than the Chinese term, and I wasn't immediately able to find a definition of "commodity grain" on the Web. See the RQ for what I managed to find, which includes the following ~ = = = = = = = = For a long time, commodity production represented a very small proportion of China's overall agricultural output and most agricultural products were consumed by peasants themselves. This hindered the development of productive forces, improvement of the living conditions of the peasants and national economic development. Since 1982, commodity grain bases have been created in 274 counties selected from four main grain-producing regions in China. The chief objectives of the commodity grain bases are: [...] to transform Chinese traditional agriculture from a system of near self-sufficiency into one of commodity production; [...] http://www.fao.org/3/a-u8050t/u8050t03.htm |

<< review queue entry 59545 - submitted by 'vermillon' >> 这一数据根据的是发表在“生育与不孕”期刊的一项研究，虽然研究者不知道为什么。 春天也象征着生命和新生；蛋是一个古老的生育的象征。 因为这些数据是以有已知生育问题的男性为基础而得出的，所以还不清楚它是否适用于同年龄的所有男性。 |

<< review queue entry 59527 - submitted by 'vermillon' >> The def may well need to be entirely revisited, not sure. At the very least, it has a noun usage, where "discount" could perhaps be "preferential discount" (not offered to the general public, but upon presenting coupons or having some sort of membership) ----------------------------- Editor: 會給台商一些特別優惠呢。 perhaps Taiwanese firms could be given some special privileges 果然老板說，如果誰願意「自願離職」，資遣費可以拿到一．二倍（一年年資發一．二個月薪水）的優惠， The boss offered to give 1.2 times the usual severance pay to anyone who left voluntarily. 對生意人來說，稅率優惠是一項極大的誘因。 For entrepreneurs, tax breaks are a great attraction. 對教育單位儘量予以優惠， they should give as large a discount as possible to educational establishments, |

<< review queue entry 59512 - submitted by 'vermillon' >> in LA, Pleco, GH. Also : 求道于盲 [qiu2 dao4 yu2 mang2] /same as .../ (perhaps this one should be the main entry, though) --------------------------------------- Editor: I've used the "/see .../" format. The rules say that in a case like this, where the 2nd expression is almost as commonly used as the 1st one, we should do it like this: /lit. to ask a blind man the way (idiom)/fig. to seek advice from an incompetent/also written 問道於盲|问道于盲[wen4 dao4 yu2 mang2]/ Does anyone want to change it to that?

<< review queue entry 59505 - submitted by 'vermillon' >> More "to admit" than recruit? Am I correct that it's almost always used for universities (or at least schools, based on exam results). Couldn't find any other example. --------------------------------------- Editor: Our entry is a truncated version of the ACE definition, which has been widely copied: "enroll; recruit; admit" So "admit" would have been part of our definition if we could just copy others competently :-) I think 1) "enrolling" technically comes *after* 錄取ing (i.e. after one is accepted) 2) "recruit" is also a bit lacking as a gloss 3) "admit" is good, although we clearly can't just say 錄取 [lu4 qu3] /to admit/ EXAMPLES * Academic example: 作家劉墉的兒子劉軒在被哈佛大學錄取之後， After Liu Hsuen, son of writer Liu Yung, was admitted to Harvard University, * Employment examples: 當年鐵路局要八十個工作人員，就有兩千多人報考，而錄取名額有一半以上保留給日本人。 The year he began working, more than 2,000 people tested for 80 positions, but half of these positions were reserved for Japanese candidates. 錄取與留職率都較高。 the hiring and retaining rates are generally higher for people hired through introduction by employees * This example is about neither a job nor a place in a university (but it does involve screening) 但還是被錄取了。 [I remember when I first entered university, I tried out for an extracurricular choir group. I wasn't really very confident about my own singing talent,] > but I got accepted. -------------------------------- Notes: 1) LA also mentions a screening process: 選取考試合格的人。 2) LA has a 2nd sense we might add later: 訊問、記錄。例 「錄取口供」。 and I see this on the Web: 《查問疑犯及錄取口供的規則及指示》 3) I have submitted 錄取率 录取率 [lu4 qu3 lu:4] /acceptance rate/admission rate/ (which ABC mistakenly defines as "enrollment rate"). |

<< review queue entry 57611 - submitted by 'vermillon' >> Sub for later, feel free to add. All dicts seem to define it with a list of verbs, but a good half of the examples I see are noun usages (in which it would be something like "battle"). |
