S7 (Bonus Ep.) | Emma’s Debut on the CSP!

 

Saying: “a bucolic refuge in the midst of a big city”
Pinyin: Shì Wài Táo Yuán
Chinese: 世外桃源

 

Emma's been integral to the CSP for a few seasons now. Here's one more nice chengyu that has loads of utility value. This time Emma herself, introduces the story behind the saying 世外桃源 Shì Wài Táo Yuán. This comes straight from the great Eastern Jin literatus Tao Yuanming. Many of us dreamers have thought about getting away from it all to escape to a utopian paradise. I hope you enjoy the story and Emma's telling of it. We'll be back next season with more useful and interesting Chinese Sayings.
