ankong Posted January 1, 2005 at 04:22 AM Report Share Posted January 1, 2005 at 04:22 AM I have heard "康定情歌" sang by man and woman together. It's a very nice song. It touched my ear at first hearing. So I'd like to know what this song tell the listener about. I have some problems to understand the meaning of the whole song. There are some words hardly to understand and it is difficult to interpret, for example '溜溜' which appear everywhere in lyric. I looked up the word '溜' in dictionary, there are many meanings, 溜 = glide, slide, slip, smooth, steal I don't know which one should be the best meaning in this song. And I think that it must hide some stories in the song. Does anyone know the story or meaning of this song? Please help me. Thank you. Here is lyric. 跑马溜溜的山上 一朵溜溜的云哟 端端溜溜的照在 康定溜溜的城哟 月亮弯弯 康定溜溜的城哟 李家溜溜的大姐 人才溜溜的好哟 张家溜溜的大哥 看上溜溜的她哟 月亮弯弯 看上溜溜的她哟 一来溜溜的看上 人才溜溜的好哟 二来溜溜的看上 会当溜溜的家哟 月亮弯弯 会当溜溜的家哟 世间溜溜的女子 任我溜溜的爱哟 世间溜溜的男子 任我溜溜的求哟 月亮弯弯 任你溜溜的求哟 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HashiriKata Posted January 3, 2005 at 09:30 AM Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 at 09:30 AM Ankong, I really enjoy listening to 康定情歌. As you like it, you may also like this: 黄河船夫曲 (Song of the boatmen on Huanghe River) 你晓得天下黄河几十几道湾哎? 几十几道湾上,几十几只船哎? 几十几只船上,几十几根竿哎? 几十几个那艄公嗬呦来把船来搬? 我晓得天下黄河九十九道湾哎, 九十九道湾上,九十九只船哎, 九十九只船上,九十九根竿哎, 九十九个那艄公嗬呦来把船来搬。 Like 康定情歌, you have to try a few interpretations (from Baidu?) to pick out the one you like.

ankong Posted January 5, 2005 at 12:51 PM Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2005 at 12:51 PM Skylee, thanks for giving me those links. HashiriKata, thanks for the song. I wonder that '几十几' and '九十九' have the same meaning, haven't they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They both mean "many" (hardships endured by the boatmen ) Cheers, HK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seesaw Posted January 15, 2005 at 08:09 PM Report Share Posted January 15, 2005 at 08:09 PM In this song, yes. They both mean "many" (hardships endured by the boatmen ) I don't think so. Yes, 九十九(ninety-nine) may mean "many". (Actually, I don't think it is necessary to explain this explicitly. ) But "几十几", in my personal opinion, simply means "how many". 你晓得……几十几……？……几十几……？……几十几……？ Do you know how many ...? How many ... ? How many ...? 我晓得……九十九……，……九十九……，……九十九……。 I know that ... ninety-nine .... ... ninety-nine .... ... ninety-nine ... It's sort of "a question-and-answer song", isn't it?
