<< review queue entry 67151 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> 1) 不合時宜 By far the most common usage of 時宜 is in the phrase 不合時宜, which means "out of step with the times; outmoded". LA 不符合現代的趨勢及流行風尚。 例 「不合時宜，令人厭惡」。 Some CE dictionaries say it also means "not suitable for the occasion", but I don't see so much evidence for that. If true, it seems to be a relatively minor sense. I'll include "inappropriate for the occasion" at the end. And I think "premature"(in our current definition) is just plain wrong. Examples: 傳統的角色分工漸漸不合時宜， traditional roles in the division of labor have become no longer suited to the times 常讓現代人覺得有些不合時宜， often giving people the impression that the Church is out of step with the times 養兒防老既然已不合時宜， He thinks that the idea of raising a child to care for you in your old age is already outmoded. 相對於現代化建築的舒適、便利，三合院老屋顯得有些不合時宜。 In terms of comfort and convenience, the old semi-enclosed-courtyard homes don't fare very well when compared to modern homes. 但多已不合時宜， it contained much that no longer suited the times ------------------------------- 2) 不入時宜 is far less common, but dicts say it's another way of saying 不合時宜. ------------------------------- 3) 合于時宜 and 合時宜 are obviously the opposite of 不合時宜. examples 衣冠服裝樣式規格要合于時宜 一定要有社會的常識，才可以合于時宜地運用法律； 高校思想政治工作必须合于时宜，不断加强大学生的爱国主义教育、社会责任感教育、卫生健康教育、规则意识教育等， 其实一个人的言行并没有绝对的对错,关键是看是否合于时宜。 |
