philipbeckwith Posted November 17, 2017 at 05:28 PM Report Posted November 17, 2017 at 05:28 PM Hi Everyone, I know a person who says "smile every chance you get" as a catch phrase. I would like to say it in a natural way yet simple. Below is my try. Any suggestions? 你每次有机会,微笑一下 Thanks! Quote
Jim Posted November 17, 2017 at 09:30 PM Report Posted November 17, 2017 at 09:30 PM Not a native speaker, but would something like 能笑即笑 work? Quote

Shelley Posted November 18, 2017 at 06:20 PM Report Posted November 18, 2017 at 06:20 PM I like @Jim's effort, the four character format make it seem a bit like a chengyu 成语。 Quote
