rockytriton Posted January 11, 2006 at 02:52 PM Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 at 02:52 PM Hi, I'm trying to go through the script for "Hero" the movie, there are some things I'm not quite understanding, so I will post them here. 大王法令 (My Kings decree) 有破刺客长空者，赏千金，封千户侯 (Someone kills the assasin 长空, ?? 1000 gold, ? 1000 ??) The parts with the question marks is where I'm having a problem. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skylee Posted January 11, 2006 at 03:22 PM Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 at 03:22 PM If anyone kills Changkong, the assassin, (he will be) rewarded 1000 (pieces/teals of) gold, and conferred with the title of Qianhu Hou (meaning the lord/marquis of a thousand households).

rockytriton Posted January 11, 2006 at 03:41 PM Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 at 03:41 PM Ok, so: 赏 means something like "to be awarded". 封 means something like "to be given a title" and 千户侯 is a common expression to be called "the lord of 1000 households" Am I right in this?
