To impress your loved ones this Valentine's Day, why not try some other alternatives instead of the usual bunch of hastily-purchased flowers or a box of chocolates? We spare no pains in the Focus to present crooning lovers a more meaningful love festival that differs from others.

今年的情人節,浪漫的你若想要打動愛人,又不滿足于隨意購束鮮花或弄盒巧克力送給對方,何不嘗試著用其它方法來表達你的愛?我們推出的這期特別關注,希望能給甜蜜情侶們帶來一個意義非凡的浪漫情人節...

 

Saint Valentine relates his story

   Priest Valentine relates his story 

There are varying versions as to the origin of Valentine's Day. This year, we invite the priest Valentine to tell of his moving story that happened in the days of Emperor Claudius. It is about worldly love and the holy mission.

關于"情人節"的來歷,現存的版本很多。06年"情人節"到來之際,我們請到了傳說中的圣·瓦倫丁,讓他親口講述一段發生在克羅狄烏斯時代有關"神職之愛"與"世俗之愛"的故事。


    

 

A bride and groom take a photo in front of a wall in Paris, which is dotted with the words "I LOVE YOU" in 311 different languages.

  Say "I Love you" in different languages

Close your eyes and picture an emotional image: You proclaim your love to the God-blessed beloved in 311 different languages on the day of Valentine… The odds are that your tongues would have been held up by a deep kiss from your swooning sweetheart before you could accomplish the grand cause. Maybe, on the moment you say the divine words in the 17th language.

閉上眼睛,想像一副畫面:情人節那天,你用世界上311種語言對你的愛人說"我愛你"… 他或她會是什么反應?實事上,不等你說到第311個時(也或許是第17個),愛人或許就已用熱吻把你剩余的語言全部吞咽了。


Read love "code" by means of countries' name。

  Read love "code" by means of countries' name

Linguists would probably shed their tears when coming up with the coined love "code." For all novelty, the absurd "Chinglish" should have been condemned. However, in the name of true LOVE, we beg Muse for a pardon on this Valentine's Day.

用國家名稱作為"愛情代碼",很有創意但也很不正統。語言學家看到了,會痛心我們對文字的褻瀆。但今天,2006年情人節來臨之際,我們以"真愛"之名,請求繆斯暫且容忍以下荒誕的"中國式英語"。
