<< review queue entry 65664 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> zdic says ~ [error due to a strange combination of circumstances] 由多種意外的原因湊在一起,造成了意想不到的結果 But 結果 means "outcome", not "error". The examples below show that the outcome is not necessarily sth unfortunate (mishap, accident etc). In fact, it's quite often sth a very *fortunate* outcome. In the 10 examples below, it's an unhappy outcome in only about 3 cases. So "accident" isn't really appropriate in our def. The examples also show that - the causes are not necessarily "many" - {"freak" combination} is a bit too strong - it's usually adverbial or phrasal, rather than purely a noun. See the examples. Sometimes it's explicitly adverbial, as in two of the sentences below where it's followed by 地. That's why I say "due to an unexpected turn of events" rather than giving noun phrases such as the two in our current definition. --------------------------------- TP 現任台長吳宏昌指出，自己原在東海大學教會計，卻因為投身客家運動，陰錯陽差走入「廣播界」。 Wu says that he was a teacher of accounting at Tunghai University, but when he became involved in the Hakka movement, he unexpectedly ended up working in broadcasting. 但媒體開放太厲害，職位都釋出了。於是陰錯陽差，不在她生涯規劃中的超視新聞部經理的職位，變成偶然出現的意外，她形容這是「美麗的錯誤」。 But the great liberalization of the media changed her career, and she became for a time something that she had never put in her career sights: head of news at the cable station STV. She describes attaining the position as a "happy accident." 講述一個箍桶貴仔，跟著閻王遊地府，卻陰錯陽差地投胎成一隻豬，經閻羅王解救之後，投胎到有錢員外家去，又因為忘了喝忘魂水， Gutong Guizai goes on a tour of the nether regions together with the Underworld King, but things get confused and he accidentally re-emerges in the land of the living as a pig. The Underworld King intercedes and has him reincarnated as the son of a rich man, but Gutong Guizai neglects to drink a potion intended to make him forget his former existence. 雖然造成許多投資人血本無歸，但也陰錯陽差地吸引更多台商與國內旅行社注意到該地的商機， fraudulent business groups in Taiwan cheated many investors with a scam surrounding real estate in Palau, but there was a silver lining to this cloud: It attracted the attention of more Taiwan business people, and especially the domestic tourism industry, to business opportunities in Palau. 在《暗戀桃花源》中，排練悲劇的《暗戀》和排練喜劇的《桃花源》劇團，陰錯陽差的輪流使用同一個舞台， In this play, two theater groups, by a twist of fate, are obliged to take turns using the same stage for dress rehearsals, bizarrely juxtaposing a melancholy Secret Love with a farcical Peach Blossom Spring. 而為了追尋瑪雅文化卻陰錯陽差到了巴拿馬的孫嘉豪， Meanwhile, a chain of accidents led Sun Chia-hao, who was searching for Mayan culture, to Panama. 「陰錯陽差找到工作，只能說是機緣巧合，但也好在我學了第二專長！」 "It was totally by chance I found the work. I can't say it was anything other than coincidence. But fortunately, I had studied in the field." 圖像表達的卻是一隻狐狸一路跟隨，想盡辦法要吃母雞，但卻一直陰錯陽差吃不到牠。 ChinesePod 你不是在猎头公司里面做吗？人脉肯定比我广，推荐一下？你知道的，我大学专业学的是广告设计，阴差阳错才成了编辑。你能帮我物色一些广告公司吗？ Aren't you working in a recruitment firm? Your connections must be more extensive than mine. Could you give a recommendation? You know that my major in university was advertising design. It was just a result of a strange series of circumstances that I became an editor. Can you help me to look for some advertising companies? 第一次看还是阴差阳错地陪老人家去公园组织的老电影放映会，谁知我第一眼就爱上了，从此一发不可收拾。 The first time I watched an old movie, was at a screening party at a park when I accompanied an elderly. Who could guess that I would fall in love with it at first sight, and can be controlled since. |
