Does this make sense?

[moksha]

Would it make sense to say:

"jin ci shi" (今此時)

to mean "now, this moment"?

Thanks

It depends on the context, sometimes you can put Chinese language in a funny way to give a better and rhythmic sentence. But giving the only 3 words you wrote here, I would say it's not good.

如今此时 is better.

but 如今 = 此时, so for the sake of saving some space (especially if you're sending out SMS), any one is enough.

I think 此時此刻 would be the best way to translate this idea

I do like the sound of 此時此刻.

How about 現在此時? Or 現在此刻?

At first I was only interested in getting a tattoo... now I want to learn more about this language. =)

此时此刻 is the best saying, 此时 = 此刻 = this moment, so it's a repetation of "this moment", just as what done in English.

Whatever you guys are trying to invent don't make sense. Sorry

如今此时

今夕是何年？我欲乘风归去，又恐琼楼玉宇。。。
