《English Translation》大卫: I want to give a gift to my Chinese friend. Do you have any suggestions?
刘娜: Don’t give a clock, because 'giving a clock' sounds like 'attending a funeral' and is considered unlucky.
大卫: What else shouldn't I give?
刘娜: Don’t give an umbrella, because the word sounds like 'separation', which implies parting.
大卫: I see. So what are good gifts to give?
刘娜: Tea, books, or local specialties are all good choices.
大卫: What if it’s for an elder?
刘娜: You can give health products, good tea, or a scarf to show care.
大卫: Got it. Thanks for the advice, Teacher Liu!
刘娜: You're welcome. I hope your friend will like the gift!
