jbradfor 681 Posted February 7, 2011 at 02:49 PM Report Share One of these days I'll look up what 怠 means, but that seems like too much work right now. B) Link to comment
creamyhorror 216 Posted February 7, 2011 at 06:10 PM Report Share "At idle speed", huh. No idea about the antonym, though. Link to comment
jbradfor 681 Posted February 7, 2011 at 06:32 PM Report Share Something tells me the antonym is not 怠速外. Maybe 忙 速中? Link to comment
jbradfor 681 Posted February 8, 2011 at 02:59 PM Report Share Humm, I'll consider it. However, google only has 41 hits for that phrase (it says more, but if you go past page 4 it says only 41), most of them are related to VOA, and many of the others have a punctuation marking in the middle (e.g. 常速、中速和高速). So while it's foolish of me to disagree with you, it doesn't pass my normal test. So roddy, what is the answer? My other guess is 運行中? Link to comment
roddy 5826 Posted February 11, 2011 at 08:00 AM Report Share Oh yes, the bit where I'm meant to come back and tell you the answer. The other one (going in the same direction, btw) was 急速中. Link to comment
xiaocai 235 Posted February 11, 2011 at 11:50 PM Report Share That sounds scary. I'd rather take the one says 怠速中. Link to comment
skylee 1913 Posted February 12, 2011 at 01:21 AM Report Share I agree that 急速中 sounds scary. Link to comment
