Word Not Found - Cantonese Translation

Hand in hand with freedom of speech goes the power to be heard, to share in the decisions of government which shape men's lives. Everything that makes man's life worthwhile -- family, work, education, a place to rear one's children and a place to rest one's head -- all this depends on decisions of government; all can be swept away by a government which does not heed the demands of its people.

同言論自由一齊，就係被聽見嘅權力，分享政府嘅決定，而呢啲決定塑造咗男人嘅生活。一切令到人嘅生命值得嘅嘢 —— 家庭、工作、教育、養育子女嘅地方同休息頭嘅地方 —— 所有呢啲都取決晒於政府嘅決定；所有嘢都可以畀一個唔聽從佢人民嘅訴求嘅政府掃走晒。

On my way to the pizzeria a second time today, the 27th of March of 2015, I encounter Moli the Fijian in her garden as she trims her bushes in the sculpted shape of penises. They remind me of that old movie Caligula. Her name in Fijian means orange. Her husband Leong, also Fijian, studied sinograms as a child, but has forgotten everything. To each other, Moli and Leong speak a brownish English.

今日，即係2015年3月27號，我第二次去薄餅店嘅路上，我喺佢個花園度遇到斐濟人莫利，佢將佢嘅灌木修剪成陰莖嘅雕刻形狀。佢哋令我諗起嗰套舊電影《卡利古拉》。佢個名喺斐濟文嘅意思係橙色。佢老公梁，亦都係斐濟人，細個嗰陣學過漢字但係已經忘記咗所有嘢。對於對方，莫利同梁都係講啡色嘅英文。

Before battle was joined they say that someone from Trachis warned him how many Persians there were by saying that when they fired their bows, they hid the sun with the mass of arrows. Dianeces, so the story goes, was so dismissive of the Persian numbers that he calmly replied, "All to the good, my friend from Trachis. If the Persians hide the sun, the battle will be in shade rather than sunlight."

喺戰鬥開始之前，佢哋話有人嚟自特拉基斯警告過佢有幾多波斯人，佢話當佢哋開弓嗰陣，佢哋會用大量嘅箭嚟隱藏太陽。故事係噉講，戴安娜對波斯嘅數字好無視，所以佢冷靜噉答：「一切都好，我嚟自特拉基斯嘅朋友。如果波斯人隱藏太陽，戰鬥就會喺陰涼嘅地方而唔係陽光下。」

It is the 28th of June of 2013. On the Web, I have encountered other Latinate conlangs besides Interlingua. But because Interlingua was created by a very professional committee, I opine that Interlingua is the best of the Blues. Many would agree with me if they had the chance to peruse other brands. Interlingua was developed between 1937 and 1951 by the International Auxiliary Language Association (IALA), so it already has a long history.

係2013年6月28號。喺網上，除咗 Interlingua 之外，我仲遇到過其他拉丁文嘅conlang。但因為Interlingua係由一個好專業嘅委員會創立，所以我認為Interlingua係藍調入面最好嘅。如果佢哋有機會睇吓其他品牌，好多人都會同意我嘅講法。Interlingua係由國際輔助語言協會（IALA）喺1937至1951年間發展出嚟，所以佢已經有好長嘅歷史。

It is the 4th of March of 2015. In religious discussions with other people and in readings, I have learnt different scenarios about the spirit-soul. Some say that the spirit is different from the soul. Some say that the body is the soul. Some say that there is neither soul nor spirit, but there is a fluid consciousness stream. Some say that there are multiple souls or spirits inside or outside the body.

係2015年3月4號。喺同其他人嘅宗教討論同讀書中，我學到唔同嘅關於靈魂嘅場景。有人話精神同靈魂唔同。有人話身體就係靈魂。有人話嘅冇靈魂，亦冇靈魂，但係有一條流動嘅意識流。有人話身體入面或者身體外面都有多個靈魂或者靈魂。

Just at daybreak, I was awakened by a series of awful screams from Bill. They weren’t yells, or howls, or shouts, or whoops, or yawps, such as you’d expect from a manly set of vocal organs — they were simply indecent, terrifying, humiliating screams, such as women emit when they see ghosts or caterpillars. It’s an awful thing to hear a strong, desperate, fat man scream incontinently in a cave at daybreak.

啱啱黎明，我就畀Bill一連串可怕嘅尖叫聲叫醒。佢哋唔係大叫、吼叫、大叫、嘩嘩、或者打喊露，好似你喺一套男人味十足嘅聲音器官入面所期望嘅咁 —— 佢哋只係唔禮貌、恐怖、羞辱嘅尖叫聲，例如女人見到鬼或者毛蟲嗰陣發出嘅尖叫聲。黎明時聽到一個勁、絕望、肥嘅男人喺洞穴入面失禁尖叫，真係好恐怖。

The Ram is called in Egyptian ba on account of the digs which he makes with his head, and a force which has occasioned the name of 'ram' to be given to powerful engines. The Heron is also called ba because with its bill it cleaves the fishes which it attacks. And the word which we translate Soul or Spirit is called ba, because it is conceived as something which 'pierces, penetrates and divides.'

羊喺埃及文入面叫做 ba ，因為佢用頭挖，同埋一種力量，令到強大嘅引擎有「羊」呢個名。鷹亦都叫做 ba ，因為佢用佢個嘴劈開佢攻擊嘅魚。而我哋翻譯嘅靈魂或者靈魂呢個字叫做巴，因為佢被認為係一種「穿透、穿透同分裂」嘅嘢。

The movement spread from spot to spot, involving every town on the surface of Europe, and in less than a hundred years free cities had been called into existence on the coasts of the Mediterranean, the North Sea, the Baltic, the Atlantic Ocean, down to the fjords of Scandinavia; at the feet of the Apennines, the Alps, the Black Forest, the Grampians, and the Carpathians; in the plains of Russia, Hungary, France and Spain.

I have even studied the grammar of Esperanto to understand what it’s about, and I came to two conclusions. It is a very, very well-made language. From the linguistic viewpoint, it really follows admirable criteria of economy of language and efficiency. Secondly, all other movements for international languages have failed, but not that of Esperanto, which further unites humanity everywhere in the world, because behind Esperanto is an idea, an ideal.

我甚至研究過世界語嘅文法，去理解佢嘅意思，我得出咗兩個結論，佢係一種非常非常好嘅語言。從語言學嘅角度睇，佢真係遵循咗令人佩服嘅語言經濟同效率標準。其次，所有其他國際語言嘅運動都失敗咗，但係世界語嘅運動就冇失敗過，因為世界語嘅背後更加團結咗世界各地嘅人類，因為世界語背後係一個想法，一個理想。

In the morning of the 9th of November of 2021, as I entered the cafe, a muscular white man with black hair in grey and blue clothing entered before me. As it was full inside, I had to drink my iced oat milk at a table outside. Then, I ate two slices of pizza at my friend Rose's pizzeria. Nearby, a big labourer exclaimed, "You think the Netherlands is a different province..."

At my corner window table, I was reading the Esperanto science fiction book La Imperio Ornaks by A. Thorkent. My parents bought me the book from the Esperanto Museum in Vienna, which they visited years ago. I also carried with me a French-Esperanto mini dictionary from Paris, 1947, from Internet shopping. Lately, I've been researching Japanese "hako-chitsu" bookbinding, which I first encountered in the Asian Library of UBC, my university.

In the 1980s, my family sometimes visited my uncle and aunt's home on top of a mountain in Oregon. Their neighbourhood was full of fragrant bark mulch. I watched MTV, a music video channel that we did not have in BC, on their television. Music videos were like haiku for my generation. The Grotto, a Roman Catholic shrine, was a nice visit on top of a mountain. There were gardens and statues.

In the afternoon of the 22nd of January of 2022, on my way back from the cafe, I met Sherie, wearing a red and black checkered long-sleeved shirt, as she was walking her pitbull. I asked her the name of her dog, which is "Sekari," supposedly Inuktitut. Sherie is part-Cree, part-French, part-Norwegian, etc., a "Heinz 57," we both agreed. Sherie has artificial vampiric fangs because she is a Goth.

Chinese American actress Anna Mae Wong wanted to play the female lead in “The Good Earth,” but she did not get the role. “The reason why Anna Mae Wong wasn’t cast was because of this production law that was part of Hollywood. The industry itself put up a production law, and part of the clause was this anti-miscegenation clause that said that you could not have interracial romances on-screen,” said Yuen.

華裔美國女演員黃安娜梅想喺《好地球》入面飾演女主角，但係佢冇得到呢個角色。「黃安娜梅之所以冇被選中，係因為呢個係荷里活嘅製作法。呢個行業本身就制定咗一個製作法，而呢個條款嘅一部分就係呢個反混血條款，話你唔可以喺銀幕上面有跨種族嘅浪漫關係。」袁偉哲話。

Kevyn was an online Filipino friend who lived in my North American metropolis. He was an enthusiast of conlangs, such as Toki Pona and Elefen. He wrote a poem in my own conlang Vong. Dear to him was the comparative deep study of religions. He grew up Roman Catholic, but later grew to like Hinduism. In his religious studies, he did not neglect the sexual aspect. I noticed that he had an Oriental face.
