He walked round the table. “How to Grow Old” “如何变老” “老年人须知” “怎样安度晚年” “老年人生活艺术” That government of the people, by the people, for the people… 民有、民治、民享的政府 * So, conversion is one of the important techniques and is needed primarily by the differences in syntactic structure and idiomatical way in the two languages.
