Pepatah Mandarin 2

万事开头难
Segala sesuatu sulit pada awalnya

活到老,学到老
Hidup sampai tua, belajar sampai tua

彼一时,此一时
Yang lalu sudah menjadi masa lalu, yang sekarang ya sekarang

捕风捉影
Mengejar angin menangkap bayangan

临渊羡鱼
Hanya berdiri saja di tepi kolam berharap mendapat ikan

否极泰来
Setelah terlepas dari kemalangan, datanglah kebahagian

求之不得
Pucuk dicinta ulampun tiba

善有善报,恶有恶报
Kebaikan akan dibalas dengan kebaikan, kejahatan akan dibalas dengan malapetaka

生米煮成熟饭
Nasi sudah menjadi bubur

Abdurrahman Wahid 也做成了Gus Dur。( 卜杜拉曼 · 瓦希德)。 他不但是印尼伟大的伊斯兰教的学者,也是印尼伟大的思想家。虽然他是残疾人,可是他当过印尼的总统。他的功绩很多,例如,在他的总统任期中,他承认华人也是印尼民族的一部分。他也承认孔子教是印尼宗教的一部分。虽然他现在不在了,但很多人都认为他仍在他们的身边。我也觉得如果他还活着的话,印尼就没有麻烦。

But when you see and learn the examples with this word, then you can easily answer on that question. We cannot say 厚孩子 hòu hái zi or 厚脖子 hòu bó zi, because with people we use the adjective 胖 pàng and for thick things in diameter 粗 cū ,胖孩子 pàng hái zi and 粗脖子cū bó zi. We can say: 厚书   hòu shū  – a thick book 厚木板  hòu mù bǎn   – a thick plank 厚礼 hòu lǐ  –...
