從你們的使用法，應為[按]。按，乃動詞。同[依]
，[据]等字的意義。

肚乎度乎！

我在李敖一篇文中，看到三十幾次[度量]。我認為
，應為[肚量]。我向人打聽，人人都說，應為[度
量]。我又查國語辭典，辭典中說，[度量]同於[肚
量]。而且舉司馬相如的古書為證。

我認為，[度量]乃是別字。雖有國語辭典為證，國
語辭典也弄錯了。玆提兩點理由，請大家評論。

1。[肚量]，乃由[肚子之容量]五字，簡化而來。
此容量，慨指學識修養。故，說人之修養，乃[肚
量]，非[度量]。

2。語言的發展，不管中外，處處和人身器官有關，
和地上萬物有關。我們總是說：[某人眼光遠大]，
[胸襟開闊]，[肚小不能容人]。隨時總有個器官。
決離不開器官而說[度小不能容人]。也不能說，
[宰相度內能撐船]。只能說[肚內能撐船]。

Silly用了一個名詞[媒介]。叫我想起[媒體]。大家
來談談媒體，好嗎？

媒體這個名詞，也已很普遍。大陸，台灣，國外，
各報刊上天天見到。雖然這樣普遍，我認為，它仍
然是個錯誤名詞。報上說，李總統請媒體吃飯。我
們讀到此句，似乎很通，因為人人如此用。媒體既
能來吃飯，媒體也會口乾喝茶，有的媒體在抽煙，
有的媒體上廁所，等等不一而足。

中文之妙，正在於無分詞性，隨時可以轉換；以及
字義引申、同音近義互換，不斷豐富字詞的意義。
假如「度」只是動詞，那麼我們的「氣度」、「風
度」、「泱泱大度」，都蕩然無存了。

當然我們怎樣選擇用字措詞，仍是有自由的。那就
看各人的喜好或堅持吧。

「道聽塗說」條：

Please tell me specificly what I did wrong.

THIS IS A QESTION. USE A "?" NEXT TIME.

READ MY MESSAGE AND THINK TWICE BEFORE YOU
ASK.

>I do believe that the so-called "正音" (correct pronounciation) corrects the correct and
does not correct the incorrect.

>THIS IS A QESTION. USE A "?" NEXT TIME.

The sentence "Please tell me specificly what I did wrong" is a request, not a question, so we need to use a full-stop, not a question mark. Ask your English teacher if you have any doubt.

>READ YOUR OWN MESSAGE AND THINK TWICE BEFORE YOU SUMBIT.

Perhaps I'm not clever enough to understand what you said. Please give some specific advices.

If you feel that you are entitle to an
answer and you demands an answer, "Please
tell me specificly what I did wrong" is
too wordy.

I would use "Please indicate my error.".

(PERSONAL OPINION: A request should be
short and very direct. A full-stop is
more prefer in the second case above.)

>The sentence "Please tell me specificly
what I did wrong" is a request, not a
question, so we need to use a full-stop,
not a question mark. Ask your English
teacher if you have any doubt.

"PLEASE TELL ME SPECIFICLY WHAT I DID
WRONG" IS A REQUEST. A QUESTION MARK
IS NOT NEEDED. SEE YOUR ENGLISH TEACHER
FOR HELP.

>Perhaps I'm not [clever enough] to
understand what you said. Please
give some specific advices.

CLEVER ENOUGH......CLEVER AT ALL.......

...too many unnecessary words.
{STREET LANGUAGE: ...TOO MUCH BULLSHIT.}

I guess you may be from HK. English teachers in HK always advice their students to write short sentences to avoid mistakes.

>Please tell me specificly what I did wrong.

If you still think a question mark should be used, or this sentence being too wordy, why don't you go and ask a person with English as his/her first language?

>I would use "Please indicate my error.".

I guess it's more like a command than request. BTW the full-stop at the end should not be used.

Anyways, I don't wanna stick to this English matter in this place any more. This is 中文修改/討論場, not English. Please feel free to discuss English at 談天說地區.

C ya!

REPOST:

Perhaps, this is a good time to draw an
end to this discusion. Enough responds
for now. Before I go, there are three
things I like to suggest to you which
might help you to become more successful
in this station.

You are a good man if you can do all these:

1. Be polite
2. Be respectful
3. No discrimation

>"Please tell me specificly what
I did wrong."

Grammatically speaking. This
sentence is correct. A full-stop
is appropriate. However,if I were
you, I would use this sentence in
a question form.

"Can you please tell me specificly
what I did wrong?"

The way you used it is too wordy.

>I do believe that the so-called
"正音" (correct pronounciation)
corrects the correct and does not
correct the incorrect.

This is a run on sentence. It makes
no sense. Ontario has a very respected
name for good education. What you wrote
is a disgrace to the system.

>I guess you may be from HK.

This sentence insults all the people
in Hong Kong. You should be ashamed
of yourself.

>English teachers in HK [always]
advice their students to write
short sentences to avoid mistakes.

It surprice me how you would know
teachers in Hong Kong ALWAYS teaches
their students to write short sentences
if you are NOT from Hong Kong.

AGAIN. READ YOUR OWN MESSAGE AND THINK
TWICE OR EVEN THREE TIMES BEFORE YOU POST.

>If you still think a question mark
should be used, or this sentence being
too wordy, why don't you go and ask a
person with English as his/her first
language?

Your sentence definately discriminated
all the citizen of Hong Kong. You should
apologize.

>You should say something about........

Icecream 最初是針對這段懶蛇兄對高連兄的留言的用詞，既然高連不介意，Icecream 又何用小題大做呢？
Icecream 既然叫懶蛇
MIND YOUR WORDING BEFORE YOU POST.
MIND YOUR MANNER BEFORE YOU WRITE.
那麼也請你多多留意自己的 manner & wording.
