Hi

There are many places to study martial arts in Beijing. It depends on what styles you are
interested in.
Most of the old time teachers still teach but not in schools, They have a few students and you
need to be introduced. Give us some idea of what you are looking for and I may be able to help.

I’d be happy to go through the embassy, but you know, I don’t live in a country :-)
My friend in Holland who’s coming too said the embassy there also wanted a hotel reservation or a
letter.

I’ll be sure to let you know how it goes, I don’t think there will be any funny business necessary
like needing a fake reservation. The visa agent I’m using requires a letter of invitation, since
it also says this on the embassy site, there’s no doubt. My girlfriend wrote a very good one, like
I said, I don’t think there will be any problem now. I’ll have an update A.S.A.P., although it may
be two weeks or so. Good luck with your own trip, Lu! Heh, that’s my girlfriend’s name. ^_^ Take
it easy.

Especially this: 我指隙间流逝

Thanks.

仰望着的时间长河从我指隙间流逝

The long river of time I was looking up ran away through my finger gaps.

vincent123 –

Thank you very much, monto.
The long river of time could be means as the very long time in Chinese? I translate this to
Vietnamese. Now I understood; this sentence was really hard to get its meaning without your help.
Thanks again.

Quote:

Yes. Chinese have a long history of relating the time to river:

子在川上曰:
逝者如斯夫!
Confucius, standing by a river, said,
“Time passes on just like this”!

HashiriKata –

I wouldn’t envy you in this. When you translate from one language to another, you need something
meaningful to translate, but this is not it. (It’s a mingle of big words & cliches which even the
author probably has little idea of what it means either )

It’s quite to the point.
The original sentence is “做作”(affected or, say unnatural) some way, and not quite logical. It
is water or something similar that runs through gaps between fingers, not a river.

comparison:

三十八年过去,弹指一挥间。

vincent123 –

仰望着的时间长河从我指隙间流逝
The long river of time I was looking up ran away through my finger gaps.

With the monto’s English translation, I suddenly understood I was able to translate to my language
like “poetic”, as means in Vietnamese: the long river of time = the endless string of time, and
ran away = flow forever; because of endless, I must used forever.

The endless string of Time has flowed through my finger gaps forever.
as in Vietnamese:
Dòng thời gian bất tận mà tôi ngước trông cứ theo khe hở tay trôi mãi!

Oh! imron, please give me its Chinese characters.

HashiriKata –

Quote:

If it’s supposed to be “poetic”, then it can be forgiven

So, let me try :
仰望着的时间长河从我指隙间流逝 =
Dòng sông thời gian mà tôi ngưỡng vọng cứ theo kẻ hở của bàn tay trôi mãi…
