jbradfor Posted February 20, 2011 at 09:48 PM Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 at 09:48 PM 愛情膽識生現 (I assume -- the 4th character is missing a stroke) Meaning I'm less sure about. 愛情 means love 膽識 courage and insight （according to MDBG -- had to look that one up) 生現 ?? comes now?

jbradfor Posted February 22, 2011 at 06:15 PM Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 at 06:15 PM alot of people seems to disagree... why? Because it doesn't? I did a quick google search, and from what I can tell it does not mean that. Carpe Diem is a set phrase with a specific meaning. It very well might not have a direct translation into a Chinese set phrase. However, some people might be saying that 生現 is the closest, or are trying to make 生現 into a common phrase in Chinese. But that doesn't mean it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
