Sample Sentences
我北来后,他写了一信给我,信中说道,“我身体平安,惟膀子疼痛利害,举箸提笔,诸多不便,大约大去之期不远矣。”我读到此处,在晶莹的泪光中,又看见那肥胖的青布棉袍,黑布马褂的背影。唉!我不知何时再能与他相见!
After I settled in the north, he wrote a letter to me saying that: “I am well except for the pain in my shoulders. The pain makes eating and writing a little difficult. I think the end of my life is not too distant.” As I read this, thru my glistening eyes, I again see my father’s heavy figure in that dark blue turquoise robe. I sigh. I wonder when I shall see him again.
