how to translate these words into english?

创业

一路顺风

一帆风顺

[eric]

no dictionary eh?

chuang ye = do founding work (like starting something large i guess)

yi lu shun feng = what you say when someone is leaving.. like "have a safe trip"

yi fan feng shun is similar, but my dictionary says it's more like "smooth sailing"

thank u

but what i desire is not the meaning,but the corresponding expressions in english.one word is more appreciated.

maybe i should explain the words more clearly.

创业:means start to do business ofen base on enterprise,usually attracting investment is the first step.like Bill Gate,we say"Gate discontinue his studying in Harvard to 创业",what do you say in english?

一路顺风:when our friends will go for a log trip,we always say "wish you 一路顺风"

一帆风顺:doing sth without any frustration,be unmolested.also a wish for sb.

i see =)

yi lu shun feng.. it's like we always say "have a safe trip"

yi fan feng shun.. i never said it, but it sounds like the same thing. sometimes we say "hope you have smooth sailing" so it's probably more like that (but it's really the same meaning in english anyway)

chuang ye... i never used that term but i don't think we'd just say "starting a business" how is it different from that? maybe something entrepreneurship or something.

good

i find this

MIT 's "$50k Entrepreneurship Competition" is translated as 麻省理工学院 "五万美金创业竞赛"

isn't that mean Entrepreneurship is corresponding word of chinese term 创业?

but what's noun,what's verb of 创业?

一路顺风 ~ bon voyage

创业 = establish (a) business

It can be used as a verb (to establish a business) or a noun (establishing a business)

Do buy a good dictionary.
