: ※ 引述《ngiiong ()》之铭言：
: 正中书局出了一套林语堂中英对照，
: 我发现其实林语堂有些地方的翻译是错误的。
: 例如陶渊明的归去来辞[或植杖而耘籽]
: or perhaps, planting my cane, begin to pluck the weeds and till the ground.
: 其实植杖是倚杖的意思，不是种植/树立杖的意思。
植->种->竖立->人没事竖个杖作啥？原来是要方便倚著。
中英都通耶。
: 孟子[牛山之木尝美矣。]
: There was once a time when the forests of the Niu Mountain were beautiful.
: 牛山前面不应该有the

: Mencius said:

: “Once there was a time when the trees of Ox Mountain were beautiful, but
: standing on the outskirts of a great city, they soon met with axe and saw and
: were felled.
加不加都有道理啦。
阳明山、玉山在台湾就这么一个，不加冠词，也不会搞混；牛山如果也是这样(比方对您
或对海外的汉学家来说)，那就不用冠词了。
但牛山也搞不好跟台湾的埔顶还是几张犁、几块厝一样，满地都是，那加个冠词，也很好
呀，“《孟子》书里讲的那个”牛山嘛。
