<< review queue entry 61715 - submitted by 'ycandau' >> caveat: not much time, so maybe not fully researched. my first impression is that 習氣 refers to a set of habits, a style, rather than a single "unhealthy habit" (like smoking maybe?) 21fisrt says /habit/mannerism/ -- "mannerism" seems to be even further GF: 长期形成的不良习惯、不良作风。 CH: 行为举止上不良的习惯和作风。一般指旧时代遗留下来的陋习，如小市民习气、市侩习气、流氓习气等。共产主义教育的任务之一就是要克服守旧心理以及旧习气。(rather lengthy and politically oriented --------------------------------- Editor: Here is a TP example where 习气 isn't derogatory 趙自強認為劇場是「手工業」，不是制式工廠，每個劇團都有自己的習氣，全世界獨一無二，而劇場則是人生悲喜的一面鏡子，也是人表達情感的工具。 Chao considers theater a kind of handicraft rather than a structured, assembly-line affair. Every theater troupe has its own unique style, each is one of a kind. Theater itself serves as a mirror for the joys and sorrows of life, and is a tool for the expression of human emotion. Other TP examples where the 习气 is a regrettable one: 「當時大陸人『吃大鍋飯』的習氣很重，」 吃大锅饭[--鍋飯] chī dàguōfàn v.o. ①eat from a big common pot ②pay or be paid at a fixed rate ③〈PRC〉 work under conditions lacking incentive to be productive 自己怎麼沾染了傳統文人自擺姿態的習氣，脫離了尊重讀者的初衷？ Chien’s subsequent efforts to bring his sales background to bear on the new business upended the literati-driven management model that had previously dominated the publishing industry. 急功近利、囫圇填鴨，其實是台灣教育的一種習氣，和升學的困難度不一定成正比。 Looking for quick results and stuffing information down the children's throats. . . . That's the way education is done in Taiwan and it is not necessarily related to the difficulty of getting into a school. 而投資人不管經過多少次慘痛教訓，追漲殺跌的習氣總是難以扭轉。 Despite numerous painful lessons in the past, the habit of chasing a rising market and cutthroat selling in a falling market has proven difficult to change. 應該重新打打算盤，早日戒除「衝動型」、「發洩型」以及「炫耀型」的消費習氣，免得跟財富絕緣。 you are simply going to have to change your priorities and abandon impulsive, emotional, or conspicuous consumption if you expect to keep your rendezvous with fortune. |

<< review queue entry 61556 - submitted by 'ycandau' >> at the time I put in /realistic/ I also suggested /practical/. I was groping for a word. I now think /pragmatic/ is even closer to what I was looking for. That sense was obviously akin to Rich's last. It covers a whole spectrum, but I don't see that the extreme of that spectrum is only Tw: 现在的女人是真的都很现实 (materialistic or self-interested would fit) Editor: Thanks. That seems right. |

<< review queue entry 61254 - submitted by 'ycandau' >> B says "news planning" but (as often) it seems this is a crude translation of the Chinese and not sth in English. "communication management": sth I thought up while reading on "public relations". It seems to at least exist: " Master of Communication Management program ... You will learn how to design and execute effective communication strategies and tactics across a range of settings, such as supporting a corporation in crisis to regain credibility, or crafting a compelling story for a non-profit organization, ..." admittedly "public relations" is probably wider than 新闻策划 |

<< review queue entry 61295 - submitted by 'ycandau' >> the def doesn't make much sense, does it? English dicts are mostly like "to offer official posts and make lavish promises" (which probably was an influence here) GF: 事先许诺给人官职或某种好处，诱使别人替自己效力。 it seems to be about promises, right? but other dicts are not quite so definitive: 以名利收买别人为自己所用 为了使别人替自己卖力而答应给以名利地位 in fact the expression is a bit confusing. If you take 許願 as "promise", /to grant official positions and make promises/ is strangely unbalanced. Look at L's examples: 「政治腐敗，封官許願盛行」、「他向選民承諾，絕不會以封官許願的方法來安排人事」。 1. making promises is not a big sign of gvt corruption, while actually giving benefits would be 2. why would he pledge to not make promises *after he* is elected? the following examples follow the same pattern: * 卸任在即 美国总统奥巴马也加紧“封官许愿” 他任命了56名公职人员、为79名联邦囚犯减刑、授予21人“美国总统自由勋章”，... (he is leaving office, what promises could he make?) *《组工干部“十严禁”纪律要求》主要包括:严禁“封官许愿”，违规干预下级单位和有关部门的干部选拔任用工作 so I chose a non-committal wording ("to offer") |

<< review queue entry 61368 - submitted by 'ycandau' >> "preface" I think is sth I would say more of the author talking about his book etc., especially for a literary work. 1. GF@绪言 跟“序言”不同。“序言”不是著作的内容；而“绪言”是著作内容的组成部分 "Words Into Type succinctly characterizes the differences between a preface and intro: "A preface or foreword deals with the genesis, purpose, limitations, and scope of the book and may include acknowledgments of indebtedness; an introduction deals with the subject of the book, supplementing and introducing the text and indicating a point of view to be adopted by the reader. The introduction usually forms a part of the text [and the text numbering system]; the preface does not." (that's my experience, in the scientific domain at least) other dicts may not be as affirmative M 書籍或論文的導言文字。也作「導言」、「緒論」 still, 導言 is "introduction'; and M doesn't say 序言 (which has a different def) 2. 绪论 may appear in book titles: 法学绪论 (Introduction to...) 3. here is the content of a book 第一章:绪论(约半周); 第二章:秦及汉初作家(约一周) 绪论 is not before the main matter 4. 緒論 appears a lot in the context of theses, where discussions here and there seem to point to what I'd never call a preface. 问了两位老师。老师教导： 绪言与前言在论文里没大不同，许多人是把它们互相通用。但严格来说，绪言是论文的一部份，必须与论文内容有关，如点题，论文意义的。前言可以是题外话如感想等，可以不是论文的一部份。而且如果写书，前言更多是请别人来写。绪言一般是比前言长。 -------------------- Editor: That's pretty convincing. |
