<< review queue entry 60423 - submitted by 'sl89' >> 【LAC】 1. 多余的、没有意义的话。 ～少说。 2. 耗费话语。也作「费唇舌」、「费口舌」。 学习要自觉，别老让家长～ 该～还是得～，听不进去也得听！ 【PLC】 take a lot of talking or explaining E.g.: 一说她就明白, 用不着人费话。 Just mention it and she'll catch on. It won't take much talking. 我费了不少话才把他说服。 It took me a lot of explaining to convince him. Editor: 1. PLC is wrong, it should be "to take a lot of time explaining" 2. I shall keep "variant...", supported by M and LA, although it sounds to me bordering on the incorrect; it seems to have been used historically. |
