You might have realized that this “Quote of the day” section has become a large part of my website’s content. While I was picking up Chinese again in my late 30s after dropping it in my late 20s, I decided that the best way to study is to translate some quotes that I encountered into my mother tongue and English on the go.
These quotes may be funny or related to self-help. What’s better than being a better version of you while studying? Have fun with quotes in 3 languages. Check back here everyday for a new quote. Enjoy learning Vietnamese, Chinese, and English.

🌙🍷😄 Drunk by the moon but not by love, lest love be heartless. Drunk on rain, not on people, with a blissful laughter. // 醉月不醉爱，免得爱无情。醉雨不醉人，醉醺醺的笑。 Zuì yuè bù zuì ài, miǎndé ài wúqíng. Zuì yǔ bù zuìrén, zuìxūnxūn de xiào. // Túy nguyệt bất túy ái, miễn đắc ái vô tình. Túy vũ bất túy … Read more
🥂💖😌 We pour for each other until half-drunk. Warm love and a peaceful life, that’s happiness. // 我们相互倾斟，直至半醉，温暖的爱和宁静的生活就是幸福。 Wǒmen xiānghù qīng zhēn, zhízhì bàn zuì, wēnnuǎn de ài hé níngjìng de shēnghuó jiùshì xìngfú. // Ngã môn tương hỗ khuynh châm, trực chí bán túy, ôn noãn đích ái hòa ninh tĩnh đích sinh hoạt … Read more
