Talk:常願

RFD discussion: October 2021–February 2022
SoP, not an adverb. 常 "always" + 願 "to be willing" = "to be always willing". — justin(r)leung { (t...) 15:06, 27 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Thoughts? SOP or not? &mdash; Fytcha〈 T | L | C 〉 03:46, 26 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete as it is 文言文. —Fish bowl (talk) 03:54, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete. SoP. Not in any of the monolingual dictionaries. ---&#62; Tooironic (talk) 08:01, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
 * In the quote provided, isn't the meaning of 常願 there the same as 寧願? Like a synonym maybe? --Mar vin kaiser (talk) 09:13, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure. The translation is by an IP, which I wouldn't trust. is not necessarily literal and may involve some interpretation. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 04:09, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh, here's a monolingual dictionary, definition is "平素的志愿" https://www.zdic.net/hans/%E5%B8%B8%E6%84%BF. --Mar vin kaiser (talk) 06:27, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for catching that. This definition is indeed in 漢語大詞典. It seems to be different from the sense that's currently in the entry. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 06:33, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I did notice that. However, that's not the sense that is being contested here. ---&#62; Tooironic (talk) 06:53, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
