Translations and annotations of the original text of the Four Seasons Appreciation Record
The following is the original text, translation, and notes of the "Liuhe Pagoda Night Play Wind Tide" in the "Four Seasons Appreciation Record": ###Original text Most people watch the tide in Zhejiang during the day in August, but few know how to watch it at night. I used to burn the temple and light the tower lamp. At noon, the moonlight filled the sky. The river was silent, the water was flowing, and the moonlight was spitting. It was a wonderful scene. After a while, the wind suddenly cold, the tide rose at the sea gate, the moon shadow silver waves, light shake spray snow. The clouds moved to the jade bank, the waves rolled and thundered, and the white silk was blown by the wind. It was like the sound of mountains, which made people's hair and bones stand on end. Gu Yun's '100,000 troops marching in the middle of the night' was true! I was shocked when I saw it, and I remembered that when I was wandering in the past, I drifted with the water and the sky, chasing the waves with the tide. I don't know how many times I became an ordinary person. At this time I pondered, only to realize that fame and fortune have harmed me a lot. From a distance I saw a few spots floating in the waves, all of which were boats coming from north to south. Sad husband! These two words have been used in the world for thousands of years. No hero has ever broken them. They are all dreams of fame and fortune. They are deep in the storm and cannot be awakened. ###Translate Many people knew that the tide in Zhejiang should be observed during the day in August, but few people knew that it could be observed at night. I used to practice in the temple until night time when I lit up the pagoda lamp. At midnight, the moonlight filled the sky. The river was silent and the moonlight reflected on the river. It was a wonderful scenery. After a while, a cold wind suddenly blew, and the tide surged up from the sea gate. Under the moonlight, the silver waves swayed like snow. The clouds moved on the jade-like shore, and the waves rolled with a thunderous sound. The white waves were like white silk that was blown up by the wind, flying and winding forward. The momentum was like the sound of mountains collapsing, making people's hair stand on end. The ancients said,"The tide in the middle of the night is like the sound of an army of 100,000." It was indeed true! After seeing it, he was shocked. He recalled swimming in the waves back then. His body seemed to float with the water and the sky, chasing after the waves. He did not know how many times he had been like this. Now that I think about it, I realize that fame and fortune have misled me. From afar, he saw many bubbles on the surface of the water. It turned out that they were all ships coming from the south to the north. Sadly, the word fame and fortune had been playing with people in the world for thousands of years, but no hero had broken this situation. They were all immersed in the dream of chasing fame and fortune, deep in it and not allowing others to wake them up. ###Remarks - (1) Burning Cultivation: This refers to cultivating in the temple. - 2. Floating Retting: The bubbles on the water surface. Since the original text, translation, and annotations of the book were not available, only this part of the content can be provided for reference.

It was an indispensable means for the translator to achieve the purpose of translation. In the practice of translation, the translator's "whether to annotate, when to annotate, and how to annotate" was often handled according to personal judgment and even preference. However, there were some standards for the application of "annotation" techniques, such as conciseness and clarity, understanding of the original text when the annotation must be made, targeted, clearly marked, appropriate location, and the form of annotation according to the length and subject of the original text (note in the sentence, note at the end of the page, note at the end of the text, etc.). Due to cultural differences, annotations were basically cultural annotations, except for some professional articles that annotate the language itself. In proverb and literary translation works, although annotations may affect the fluency of the translation, they played an irreplaceable role in conveying the cultural content of the original work.

Part of the original text and translation of "Heavenly Works" are as follows: " A man cannot live for long, but the grain gives birth to him. The grain cannot grow on its own, but the life gives birth to him." Note: To live, to survive, to feed. Humans could not survive for a long time. They could survive because they could rely on grains to feed themselves. However, grains could not grow by themselves. They needed to be planted by humans. Preface: " The heavens and the earth are endless, and there are tens of thousands of things. And things are also due to it. It is not human power to complete it without leaving it behind." [Note: It was formed indirectly.] Under the cover of the sky and above the earth, there are tens of thousands of species, and everything changes randomly into various forms without missing a single one. Could it be caused by human power? "I beg the great cause of the literati to throw this book on the table. This book has nothing to do with fame and progress." Note: Beggar, request.

Among all things, there is no difference between the living and the beneficial, each half of which is contained.

However, the flowers of dates and pears have not been appreciated, but they have imagined the "Chu Ping"(1); The Fan Xianjing of the pot is good, but they talk about the "Ju Ding"(3); The painter likes to draw ghosts and evil dogs and horses (4), so how can Zheng Qiao and Jin Hua be strong?

The painter replied: It is difficult to draw dogs and horses. The king of Qi asked again, what is the easiest thing to paint? The painter replied: Painting ghosts and spirits is the easiest.

Strong: Beautiful, beautiful. Ji Kang's "Fu on the Guqin":"The sound is strong and far-reaching." The sky is above, the earth is below, and there are all things in between.

However, since there are tens of thousands of things, how many can be recognized if they must be recognized by word of mouth?
