杰声 Posted March 14, 2005 at 06:01 PM Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 at 06:01 PM I'm trying to write up a piece of coursework for my chinese degree which is basically creating a story from some random pistures we got.... very random pictures O_o One of them happens to be 2 people being accosted by a dog which kinda looks like it has rabies. I want to write the person is telling the dog to go away but came up with: 玛丽说：“不来了！” As I have absolutly no idea how to say go away that was the closest I could come up with. However, when I showed it to my mum she broke down laughing, apparently “不来了” is what a girl will say to her boyfriend when playing hard to get She did write something down for me but its in traditional which I don't learn plus she scribbled it I know the first part is 走 but can't figure out what the second hanzi is. Anyone got any ideas? ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Posted March 18, 2005 at 05:56 AM Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 at 05:56 AM Can you tell a dog to 滚? That's 'bugger off', give or take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insanity Posted March 19, 2005 at 04:36 AM Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 at 04:36 AM Eh ... about the "滚" thing ... yes, if you say it in a commanding way, it means "bug off," "get outta here" but it can also mean "roll" and with a dog, I could also translate that as teaching it doggy tricks o.O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
