Self Contained (静水深流) | S4E187 | OWAD Learning Mandarin Chinese

Learn Chinese with One Word A Day
~7 min a day with me to understand how Chinese make meaning with their language. Make foreign familiar. #chinesetutorial, #mandarin

A minor note: While I accept the universal 静水深流 - still waters run deep, I am not sure the converse holds i.e. 深水静流 - deep waters still current (which is what I think you said at the end). I would guess that 深水快动 / 深水湍急 might be more the case. 不管, your generous teaching 就是川流不息. 非常感谢。👏🙏😀

Great explanation of this expression! That wisdom is so deeply embedded in this culture.
