somethingfunny Posted April 12, 2020 at 01:23 PM Report Share Posted April 12, 2020 at 01:23 PM 什么年的了吗 What era are you from? 先进模范有屁用 Being an "advanced example" is of no use... The translation of 先进模范 would depend on the context. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
889 Posted April 12, 2020 at 01:49 PM Report Share Posted April 12, 2020 at 01:49 PM It's 什么年代了 妈 。 先进模范 no doubt refers to the somewhat dated awards China gives to 先进模范人物. http://www.gov.cn/gongbao/content/2005/content_64227.htm Who cares these days: they're useless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaffoRasta Posted April 12, 2020 at 02:43 PM Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2020 at 02:43 PM Thank you both for your help, how would that award's name translate to english? Any possible documentation in english about it? Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
889 Posted April 12, 2020 at 03:27 PM Report Share Posted April 12, 2020 at 03:27 PM As China Daily explains it, the "advanced worker" award is one step above the traditional "model worker" award. That is, 先进模范 is a shorthand for the two awards. https://www.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2010-04/28/content_9782220.htm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
