Definition: Welcome to my little translation nook Translated Over Tea!🍵📜 A small corner of the internet where I share English translations of classic Chinese stories and novels that I’m currently reading and exploring. A quick note about the translations: I am not a native Chinese speaker, nor do I fully understand the language. My translations rely on modern translation tools, careful reading, and additional research to understand the context and meaning of the stories. Because of this, there may be small imperfections along the way, and I truly appreciate your patience and understanding as I continue learning. What I do have, however, is a deep appreciation for the wisdom found in these ancient stories and a genuine love for Chinese culture. Over the years, I’ve also become a big fan of Chinese music—especially songs from the dramas I’ve watched. Those dramas were actually one of the things that sparked my curiosity about the literature behind the culture. I first started reading Chinese novels when I was around 28 years old. At the time, I often felt frustrated when I couldn’t find English translations of books I was curious about. Many fascinating stories simply weren’t available to English readers, and that curiosity stayed with me for years. Now that translation tools are more accessible and I can do my own research, I decided to start translating and sharing the stories I’m currently reading. This project is truly a passion for me. It’s my way of learning, appreciating the culture I admire, and helping other English-speaking readers discover these beautiful works of literature. If you love stories that teach, inspire, or make you pause and reflect, you’re in the right place. Thank you for joining me on this journey!🍵📚
