Elizabeth_rb Posted July 11, 2014 at 10:16 AM Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 at 10:16 AM Hi! A friend is giving a speech soon and he needs the titles of four books translated into Chinese. I could have a reasonable go, but I'm sure the better versions you more expert Chinese speakers could come up with will give him more face in his speech!!! Here they are: 'Stop Fighting-Proven Techniques for Resolving Conflicts''Find Happiness-How To Be Happy in Three Easy Steps''How To Manage Your Money''Free Yourself From Anxiety' Many thanks in advance for your help!

ZoxGuo Posted July 11, 2014 at 10:39 AM Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 at 10:39 AM 'Find Happiness-How To Be Happy in Three Easy Steps' 阳光大道三步走 'How To Manage Your Money' 量财录用 才 of the original word 量才录用 seems almost totally same to 财 … you know, in pinyin 'Free Yourself From Anxiety' 我叫没烦恼 A sentence from a old children's folk 《不开心与没烦恼》 And sorry, I'm so good at English, so I can't understand “Fighting-Proven”, if you think my idea is okay can you explain it, I mean, if you have time? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lu Posted July 11, 2014 at 12:51 PM Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 at 12:51 PM That last one is 'Stop Fighting: [here are some] Proven Techniques for Resolving Conflict'. I like your titles! Creative and catchy instead of literal translations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoxGuo Posted July 11, 2014 at 01:44 PM Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 at 01:44 PM Sorry! Just realize I had made a huge mistake, in the last paragraph, I have lost a “not”, it should be“I'm not so good at English”, I didn't mean to say that, I swear, sorry.

ZoxGuo Posted July 11, 2014 at 02:01 PM Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 at 02:01 PM Eh, I'm not sure if you pardon me, but I thought 刀枪入库:化干戈为玉帛 would be suitable for 'Stop Fighting-Proven Techniques for Resolving Conflicts', eh in my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
