| 久而久之 (jiǔ ér jiǔ zhī) “over time, as time passes” 久 (jiǔ) refers to a “long (duration of) time,” as in 好久不见 (hǎo jiǔ bu jiàn) “long time no see.” 久而久之 (jiǔ ér jiǔ zhī) speaks of a reverence for the passage of time. 久而久之，老石也风沙化了 (jiǔ ér jiǔ zhī, lǎo shí yě fēng shā huà le) = Over time, old rocks also eroded into sand.  不厌其烦 (bú yàn qí fán) “to take great pains, show great patience” A direct translation of the components of this phrase might read, “to not reject this troublesome (thing).” It’s a very socially-minded sentiment that a beginner Chinese learner might use to describe their language learning efforts, or even the efforts of their teachers. 为什么大自然要不厌其烦地创造蚊子呢？(wèi shén me dà zì rán yào bú yàn qí fán di chuàng zào wén zi ne? = Why did Mother Nature have to take such great pains to create mosquitos? 一无所有 (yī wú suǒ yǒu) “not having anything at all, utterly lacking” 一无所有 (yī wú suǒ yǒu) can refer to a lack of material things as well as abstract concepts like knowledge. It takes four words that any beginner first-year Chinese learner would know, and combines them with precision to make a new phrase. Again, the language highlights the gorgeous elegance of simplicity. 浪迹天涯 (làng jì tiān yá) “to roam far and wide, travel the world” Here is a beautiful four-word phrase that brings to mind images of far-off grasslands, roving trains, and travelers without destinations. With greater understanding of different languages and cultures comes a greater capability to explore and comprehend what you see and hear, as well as greater appreciation for beautiful expressions like these. #Our teachers # More than 10 years teaching experience Master Degree Certificate for teaching chinese as a foreign language   # About us # Founded in 2007 Chinese test and training center 200+ Chinese teachers 5000+ students  # Contact us# Name:fiona Phone number:021-52287809,13918358891 E-mail:info@mandarinmorning.com www.mandarinmorning.com If you are interested to join Mandarin Morning school or want more details about our services, scan the following QR code. ☟   Mandarin Morning Chinese test center attached to Confucius institute headquarters Authorized Test Center and Training Center for International Chinese Language Teacher Certificater 10 years+ ，200 teachers ，more 10000 students，200+companies  |
