Recommended Posts

what exactly does this mean?

i've seen sentences like

huo dao lao

xue dao lao

hai you san fen xuebudao

meaning still can't learn 3/10's

if someone is saying..

Nimen liangwei budan neng shuo, erqie shuode shifen hao.. does this mean 10/10's = 100% also meaning very good, top, etc.?

or does shifen have an actual meaning.

"活到老, 學到老, 還有三分學不到" - meaning there is no limit to knowledge and even if you spend your whole life studying you will never learn everything. 30% is not to be taken literally.

Something with the same meaning - "學海無涯" - the sea of knowledge is boundless.

"吾生也有涯,而知也無涯" - my life is limited, yet knowledge is limitless.

十分好 means very good. Not 100%.

十分好吃 - very tasty

十分聰明 - very clever
