Pretending to be a fluent English-speaking person, an employer said to his worker, "Look Year Now, Party For Free Come the Must":


Seek for translation in Chinese  

The hint is the speaker doesn't know English.

回復 #20 taurus 的帖子

Hi Brother Taurus & All,

I am just an ordinary guy who often need to "eat characters & brain" and drink "my cup of tea". I"ve got not many a joke that brings good laughs and happiness to whosoever I meet.

One day, my dear neighbour showed me a letter in English for applying a whatever licence with the Gov't.   It wrote :
             "Kuk Cheung,
              Nei Ho, Ngor Sheung Sun Ching
              Yat Kuo XX Pai Chiu......"

This worked and he finally got what he wanted.

This is called "Romanization" in the Translation business.  So the answer to
"Look Year Now, Party for Free, Come the Must" is

"落二樓,把啲火灰冚啲貓屎。"

Insomnia -- in the Blur          夜難眠  --  朦矓


( My Debut Po-um )

Twinkle Twinkle little stars
It's a hard-day nite
My Bonnie lies over the Ocean
Can but send emails sealed with a kiss

She lives by the west side
The train never shall meet

One day one wonderful morning...
I'll follow her, I'll follow her
Never realize what a kiss could be
Down the Aisle with me

Beautiful dreamer chances to break
Oh! No

( 是詩不是詩 )

繁星閃閃
疲累一夜
我的甜心在那方
祇有寄情於依猫

彼此異地
相逢無期

温馨一早
緊隨她去
渴望深情的一吻
响起教堂那鐘声

奈何夢醒夢碎
噢!惱


( Don't Laugh )   (但求一笑)

Appreicate you are a man full of humor and accomodation.

I was a translator. It's sarcastic that  English, the subject my teacher always gave me fail marks  in my examinations,  was my only paraphernalia.

Keep up to exchange views and dont hesitate to point out what i need.

Brother Taurus

Casino Head-hunters are looking for you, Taurus the bean-counting expert.

I worked with the disciplined department in the Govt. before.  Sorry, cant disclose too much. Of course I had to render interpretation service, tri-lingual.

多謝, 多謝 Neiahyeah兄的美言 !

你可否悟得到嗎 ?   
Hi Brother Taurus



看山是山      看水是水
看山不是山   看水不是水
看山還是山   看水還是水

I have little knowledge about "contemplation".  The captioned denotes the level of mind, thinking and living you have achieved.

I appreicate that you are a very humble and modest fellow. I suppose, you have attained to 看山還是山   看水還是水.

Neiahyeah is still 看山是山   看水是水, sometimes naive

English language is strange

English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. .English muffins weren't invented in England or French fries in France. Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat.

If we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.

How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and wise guy are opposites? How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? How can a person be "pretty ugly?"

You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of this language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out and in which an alarm clock goes off by going on. Why is "crazy man" an insult, while to insert a comma and say "crazy, man!" is a compliment when applauding a jazz performance.

English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human races. That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it, but when I wind up this essay, I end it.
