Some notes on dialects in the book
Personally, I believe that dialect is an important part of the work. It is simple, clear and impressive for expressing the characters' inner thoughts, personality traits, regional characteristics, customs, etc. Given the context, there are probably only a few places that I really don't understand. However, in the later period of the text, with the changes of the times, more and more people spoke Mandarin, and correspondingly fewer dialects were spoken. Thank you everyone for watching and commenting.
The author wrote this book specifically to adapt it into a TV series.
Happy New Year! All the best!
In the first chapter, I feel that the author is not a native of Shanghai. One Shanghai never talks about alleys, only alleys. Two, make rice and stir-fry vegetables in the morning? Keep it simple first, usually it's leftovers from last night, plus some moldy tofu pickles
The subject matter is so good, it's even more exciting than the previous book, and it's going to win another award!
After learning from the painful experience, I decided to make a major change in the narrative style of this book. Wait a moment.
First, the two narrative lines were canceled and changed to chronological order, first in the 1980s and then in the 1990s. The second is to make appropriate adjustments in dialect, giving priority to understandable expressions. The adjustment may take some time, so readers please wait a moment.
Thank you for the great encouragement! Here I go again. Both books are very beautiful. I read more than 20 chapters of this new book. Book first and take a look later 😁
The author is telling a two-line narrative. Can you mark the time when changing the timeline? Otherwise it will be a bit tiring to jump around.
I always have to jump to read, and I can't find the normal logic, which is very uncomfortable.
Happy New Year to the car god! Wonderful writing!
