<< review queue entry 69305 - submitted by 'sl89' >> * Swordswoman is certainly rare, but translated a text mentioning a 女刀客 and 客 doesn't have to be man, so I feel extra sexist if just submit "swordsman". Is "swordsperson" too weird? * 现代汉语大词典 has a very specific definition, “民国初年称土匪为刀客”, but I have no other reference for it, and even 刀客 for swordsman is rare enough. 如果我是那群太尉府的刀客，我一定死不瞑目，后来这么多条命加起来，只不过值一个鸡蛋。 If I were those swordman from the militia, I'd have refused to die. All their lives were worth only the value of egg! 几日前 有一班刀客经过我家门口 A band of swordsmen passed by a few days ago. 男孩回答："我希望是你的学生，成为最优秀的刀客在土地，"。 "I wish to be your student and become the finest swordsman in the land," the boy replied. |
