Tulee Posted March 3, 2014 at 03:51 PM Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 at 03:51 PM Question about translation of these two phrases: 留胡子 vs 长胡子 I've seen them used interchangeably so it is hard for me to distinguish them. Any help would be much appreciated ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottt Posted March 3, 2014 at 05:03 PM Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 at 05:03 PM Here, both 长 and 留 are verb. 长 = grow 留 = Keep One needs able to 长胡子 first, Then he can decide to keep (留胡子) or not (不留胡子). Normal women never 长胡子. Grown-up boys will 长胡子. Many old men like to 留胡子. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
