imron Posted July 21, 2004 at 08:08 AM Report Posted July 21, 2004 at 08:08 AM Carbon Monoxide is 一氧化碳. and just in case you were interested, Carbon Dioxide is 二氧化碳. Deforestation is: 砍伐森林 Reforestation is: 重新造林 Quote
Guest Yau Posted July 21, 2004 at 10:45 AM Report Posted July 21, 2004 at 10:45 AM Reforestation is: 重新造林 It's grammatically correct and exactly the same as dictionaries. However, I'd only say "造林" for daily use. Quote
Quest Posted July 21, 2004 at 11:09 AM Report Posted July 21, 2004 at 11:09 AM Deforestation is: 砍伐森林 Reforestation is: 重新造林 伐林 and 造林？ Quote
Guest Yau Posted July 21, 2004 at 11:15 AM Report Posted July 21, 2004 at 11:15 AM 伐林 and 造林？ i vote this one better~ Quote
Quest Posted July 21, 2004 at 11:30 AM Report Posted July 21, 2004 at 11:30 AM also: in expressing "asian values", would you go for ya4zhou1 zhun3ze2 or ya4zhou1 jia4zhi2?? maybe 亚洲人的价值观？ Quote
holyman Posted July 25, 2004 at 07:49 PM Report Posted July 25, 2004 at 07:49 PM think its 毁林 and 造林 for deforestation and reforestation. i remember the ex-prime minister of singapore used 亚洲价值观。 Quote
