I am doing a revision on this character 掛｜挂 which we can pronounce as kua3, gua3 or guê3.
Use of kua3
|
Ziah4
ka1 kua3 do6 he2 in2 |
|
隻骹掛在許椅｜只骹挂在许椅 |
|
One’s leg is placed on that
chair. |
Why is it not both legs?
If it is both legs, then it would be said as sang1ka1 雙骹｜双骹。
Whose legs?
The sentence does not disclose the leg belongs to whom.
How is this sentence said in Mandarin?
腳放在椅子上｜脚放在椅子上
(A) leg is placed on top of a chair.
