tmho160 Posted August 31, 2005 at 01:21 PM Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 at 01:21 PM Hello, I'm trying to find a chinese word for being "told off." I can't even think of any other english words associated with this and my chinese isn't up to scratch to find this word. I want to use this word in a sentence such as this "I hope you wasn't told off by anyone." Thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmho160 Posted August 31, 2005 at 02:53 PM Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 at 02:53 PM So would this make sense: 我希望沒有人裞過你。Is there a more "harsher" word than 裞 because it doesn't convey the sort of telling off i was thinking of. I want something more powerful as like to say to shout at. 裞 seems too leniant somewhat. Doesn't seem right to me anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you want the Chinese grammar to be incorrect as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
