Emperor Naruhito was caught in a conundrum when it came to wording in his speech in Japanese to declare the 2020 Tokyo Olympics open during the July 23 Opening Ceremony at the National Stadium. […] The official English version for the Tokyo Olympics was: "I declare open the Games of Tokyo celebrating the 32nd Olympiad of the modern era." […] Following discussions among central government officials and the Tokyo Olympic organizing committee, it was decided to allow Naruhito to use "kinensuru" for celebrating. The term has more of a nuance of marking or commemorating an important occasion.

Kuomintang

c. 1912, from the Wade–Giles romanization of Mandarin 國民黨 /国民党 (Guómíndǎng), Wade–Giles: Kuo²-min²-tang³.

It is generally believed that the creation of the Kuomintang will somewhat straighten out the political tangle in China caused by the multitude of parties. The Kuomintang holds itself out as the democratic party, and its support of the President will be tempered by the path his future actions take.

1912 September 7, “The Passing of the Tungmenghui”, in North-China Herald and Supreme Court & Consular Gazette, volume CIV, number 2352, Shanghai, →OCLC, page 686, column 3:

The trend of events from the founding of the Republic to the unseating of the Kuomintang members of the National Assembly in November, 1913, however, confirmed the belief held in many quarters that republicanism was not a suitable system of government for the Chinese in their present stage of political development.

1916, F. L. Pratt, “CONSTITUTIONAL DEVELOPMENT, 1915”, in China Mission Year Book 1916, Shanghai: Christian Literature Society for China, page 24:

U Nu's government was Socialist with a program of nationalization. But it had to fight for survival against almost universal disorder complicated by a Communist rebellion, a Karen rising, which was far more serious, and, in 1950, the arrival from Yünnan of General Li Mi's Kuomintang division after its rout by the Chinese Communists.

1968, Daniel George Edward Hall, “Burma”, in Encyclopedia Britannica, volume 4, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 442, column 2:

He drew lists of Party cadre members of both before and after forty-nine, and pored over the scant details of those entrusted with the takeover of big enterprises where technological know-how was required: in particular the Kiangnan shipyard, a massive affair from which the Kuomintang elements had repeatedly to be purged.

1977, John Le Carré, The Honourable Schoolboy, Folio Society, published 2010, page 238:

The Kuomintang Party, after capturing 62 of the 71 seats in the Dec. 3 legislative elections, has retained control of the Legislative Yuan of Taiwan, the bastion of recovery, that it has held for the past 30 years.

1983 December 4, “6.7 Million Voters Select 71 Legislators”, in Free China Weekly, volume XXIV, number 48, Taipei, page 1:

By 1927, these gangs had come to play a cardinal political role, serving as agents of the Kuomintang in dealing with unions, radicals, and other opponents of the regime.

1985, Harold R. Isaacs, Re-encounters in China: Notes of a Journey in a Time Capsule, M. E. Sharpe, →ISBN, page 6:

If we say that the Communist Parties in West European countries are tainted with some undesirable traditions of the social-democratic parties, the Chinese Communist Party is more or less tainted with the undesirable traditions of the Kuomintang. The concept of “ruling the country by the party”, held by some comrades, is a manifestation in our Party of an abominable tradition of the Kuomintang.

1992 [1941 April 15], Xiaoping Deng, “The Party and the Anti-Japanese Democratic Government”, in Selected Works of Deng Xiaoping, Beijing: Foreign Languages Press, →ISBN, →OCLC, →OL, page 17:

Next door, you can't miss the Fushan Illuminated Wall, a huge sign with red Chinese characters on a white background declaring: "Sleep with one's sword ready." Its purpose was to brace the islands' Kuomintang troops and to warn off the Communist troops always watching from just across the waters.

2004, Phil Macdonald, National Geographic Traveler: Taiwan, National Geographic Society, →ISBN, →OCLC, page 203:

In February, the newly elected mayor of Taipei, Chiang Wan-an, welcomed a delegation from the Shanghai branch of the Taiwan Affairs Office. Andrew Hsia, a Kuomintang vice chairman, went to China and met with Wang Huning and Song Tao, two key figures in Beijing’s Taiwan strategy.

clear blue water

It was the Conservatives' policy, designed in part to put some clear blue water between themselves and Labour and to refresh Conservative Party ideas.

But, Boyle's admission does put clear blue water between CC and the autonomist politics of another notorious commons enthusiast, Peter Linebaugh, who is also included in this chapter.

[…] the Conservatives can still create clear blue water between them and Labour by showing how they prioritise the family over the State.

2011, Martin H. M. Steven, Christianity and Party Politics: Keeping the Faith, page 62:

I was of the view that there ought to be clear blue water between us and the Tories on this issue.

Qin

en-proper noun

Qin (countable and uncountable, plural Qins)

From the Hanyu Pinyin romanization of the Mandarin 秦 (Qín), from Middle Chinese (*dzin), from Old Chinese (*dzin).

An ancient feudal state of China that existed between 778 and 207 BC.

The youth of China, deeply concerned with the future of their country, began to question everything and re-evaluate everything. What had been considered valuable became worthless, and what had been regarded as worthless became priceless. The more they examined, the more doubtful they became. This inquisitive approach shook the ancient political system, which had been handed down with little modification from the Chin Dynasty more than twenty centuries before. The new generation cried, "Democracy."

[1943, Kwok Ying Fung, “Out of Yesterday”, in China, New York: Henry Holt and Company, →OCLC, page 14:

Sian was the captial of the Cin Dynasty(221B.C. - 201B.C.), which built the Great Wall of China. The city is now known for archeological finds, such as the clay soldiers, horses and arms buried with the emperor of the Cin Dynasty.

[2007, “Our Trip Back to Shanghai”, in A Girl From Shanghai: The Story of Lillian Hsu, a Medical Geneticist, a NTU Medical College Alumna, →ISBN, →OCLC, page 48:

Until 1974, the name Qin Shihuangdi (221-210 B.C.) was essentially known to specialists through the annals of Sima Qian, official historian to the Han dynasty (206 B.C.-220 A.D.). The Han overthrew the Qin dynasty founded by the First Emperor and this might call for reservations concerning his objectivity. Yet Sima, who wrote a century after the facts, was well informed.

2007 September 14, Souren Melikian, “A Chinese emperor's cultural revolution”, in The New York Times, →ISSN, →OCLC, archived from the original on 2024-11-28, Arts:

The highlight of every Chinese New Year meal with the family is when the "hongbao", red envelopes filled with brand new banknotes, are handed out at the end. The tradition goes back to the Qin dynasty (221 - 206 BC) when hongbao were given to children to protect them from evil spirits.

2016 February 11, Frank Sieren, “Sieren's China: Cashless into the Year of the Monkey”, in DW News, archived from the original on 2016-02-12, China:

The first imperial dynasty of China, lasting from 221 to 207 BC.

Atreid

Borrowed from Ancient Greek Ἀτρείδης (Atreídēs).

bor+

Ancient tradition said that Mycenae was founded by the Perseid dynasty and that the Atreids (Pelops, Atreus, Agamemnon) were outsiders.

1998, Michael Wood, In Search of the Trojan War, page 157:

While in the Oresteia sacrifice operated as a metaphor for the intrafamilial murders of the Atreids, among the Taurians the metaphor takes on materiality.

1999, Barbara Goff, “The Violence of Community: Ritual in the Iphigenia in Tauris”, in Mark William Padilla, editor, Rites of Passage in Ancient Greece: Literature, Religion, Society, page 112:

The family history of the Atreids is so complicated you'd need a flow chart to get it; what's more, that chart would flow with the blood of doomed family members. Situated in Mycenae, the Atreids were a brutal and competitive bunch; they worked hard to outdo each other with generation after generation of heinous crimes.

2010, Chiron the Centaur, The Mythic Warrior's Handbook, page 28:
