abcdefg Posted April 21, 2011 at 02:42 AM Report Posted April 21, 2011 at 02:42 AM I have a casual friend who told me yesterday she is down with a cold. I tried to add something like a “get well soon” wish at the end of the text message I sent in reply but it came out all botched up. So last night I found 祝你早日恢复健康 in one of my textbooks from earlier in the year. I had scribbled a note in the margin that 快好起来 was more colloquial. What do you usually write in a situation like that? 1 Quote
Meng Lelan Posted April 21, 2011 at 03:30 AM Report Posted April 21, 2011 at 03:30 AM My friends and I don't say that when it's a very mild illness. Usually some expression of concern or a suggestion to 多保重 or 休息休息 or something like that, then a day or so later ask 身体好点儿了吧？ 1 Quote

abcdefg Posted April 21, 2011 at 08:07 AM Author Report Posted April 21, 2011 at 08:07 AM Thanks everybody. My friends and I don't say that when it's a very mild illness. This girl always sends me messages saying to wear warm clothes if the weather is chilly and so on so I felt obliged to say something that showed concern even though it was not a major ailment. Quote
