kaox0018 Posted April 25, 2007 at 08:38 PM Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 at 08:38 PM I know there are a few meanings to the work 藉, could someone help explain it? I also read this in a book (passage is about editing a story): ....在原有的故事裡加些趣味的對話,藉對話增加想像力,或者是給故事一個意想不到的結局... what does the 藉 mean here?

studentyoung Posted April 26, 2007 at 03:28 AM Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 at 03:28 AM Here 藉 means “use” or “take advantage of”. 藉對話增加想像力: by taking advantage of dialogues to enhance imagination Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
againstwind Posted April 26, 2007 at 05:06 AM Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 at 05:06 AM more examples: 藉着灯光看书。 要藉用一切有用的力量。 In fact, 藉 with the meanings of 'by means of; make use of; to utilize', was an independent character before the simplification of characters in the China Mainland. After that, it was replaced by the character 借. In other words, in the current simplified character system, 借 has two basic meanings: 1. to borrow; to lend 2. by means of; to utilize Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
