Order is particularly important
Thread Content
If you say a female college student working as a hostess in a nightclub at night, it doesn’t sound very good. But if you talk about a nightclub dancer who persists in attending university classes during the day, that’s full of positive energy. If you say you are a scholar who started a company, you will be looked down upon and considered vulgar – a real scoundrel. But if you say you are a businessman who also dedicates time to academic research, people will hold you in high esteem and refer to you as a scholar-businessman. So when speaking, order is particularly important.
Yes, it’s extremely crucial; this way of speaking really needs to be learned well* – it’s a whole art form.
Speaking is an art, and there are countless rules to the Chinese language.
Be yourself, no matter what others say.
What role one plays determines what they do; in the eyes of others, a label has already been attached to them
There are many jokes online about the Mandarin language exam, which indeed confuse foreigners; it’s likely that some Chinese people are also troubled by it.
The ancients said: A kind word can warm one through three winters, while harsh words can hurt someone even in the heat of summer. Speaking is an art as well as a form of wisdom. Rude people’s speech often lacks aesthetic grace, only destroying the beauty that exists in the world ； Wise people, when speaking, strive for a pleasant atmosphere and a harmonious mood. Polishing language can make many things in life that might hurt others become warmer.
It reminds me of the story of failing over and over again yet trying again and again
At first hearing, it seems reasonable; but upon closer consideration, there is still a difference: a female college student who works as a hostess in a nightclub at night, as opposed to a nightclub worker who goes to college to attend classes during the day. (Scholars and businessmen are) fundamentally different: 1. First of all, what do you do? One is a female college student, and the other is a nightclub dancer. 2. Once again, what is your goal? What is the purpose of female college students attending university? Is it to work as escorts? Why do nightclub dancers accompany clients? And why do they go to university to attend classes during the day? 3. What was their final outcome? Do college students turn into hostesses, or do hostesses turn into college students? This matter is worth considering.
