According to me? 梗係唔係啦！ [#commonmistakes🌋 ]
According to，中文係根據，指既係一種客觀既依據。
所以 we don't give our own opinions with according to, 要講個人睇法，我地就唔會用 according to 啦。但如果係第三人稱，例如according to him／her／our teacher就冇問題既。
> I thought the test was open book, but 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝘆 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗿, no notes will be allowed.
> 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘄𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗽𝗲𝗿, the murder suspect was captured and is being held in the local jail.
如果真係想表達自己既意見呢，我地可以用：
📌 In my opinion…
> 𝗜𝗻 𝗺𝘆 𝗼𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗼𝗻, children under the age of two should not be allowed to watch television.
📌 From my point of view…
> 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗺𝘆 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄, I see myself as a helpful and supportive friend.
📌 Personally, I think…
> When I'm with my family, I get along well with my uncle, but 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆, 𝗜 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸 he's a doofus.
📌 As far as I’m concerned…
> 𝗔𝘀 𝗳𝗮𝗿 𝗮𝘀 𝗜'𝗺 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗱, your argument is more eloquent.

話明係客觀既依據，我地好少會喺according to後面用 view 或者 opinion等等比較主觀既字嘅

eloquent中文 在 郭莉芳 X 理財講堂 Facebook 的精選貼文
去年底新增了一個身分--Lyricist，作詞人，
幫公勝保經撰寫企業歌的中文歌詞，彷彿是一種職業病，從此就會認真地聽歌詞。這一支Schroders的影片很感人，歌也很美，取名是The Joy of Sorrow.
而歌詞我是聽到了那句「We all learn more from pain......」引起了想要知道整首歌詞的興趣。
才意外地發現，這支影片不是英國總公司製作，而是台灣Schroders施羅德投信的出品（天啊，真是令人欣羨的企業行銷預算啊～）而作詞作曲也是本土優秀的人才。謹把歌詞貼在下方，大家有空都可以欣賞一下這支影片，洋蔥很多啊！
The Joy of Sorrow
詞：蔡柏璋 曲/中譯：羅恩妮
吉他：董運昌 人聲：柯智棠 Kowen
We’re all living, we’re all dying 活著，為了消亡
We’re all simple but complicated 單純，也需要偽裝
We’re hiding, yet craving to be found 逃避，又痴想被揭穿
We’re all hurting, we’re all wounded 信念粉碎，遍體鱗傷
We’re all awake but unaware 無論有意無意
Learning the joy of sorrow 都在學著，如何與哀傷共存
We’re all pure, we’re all blended 無色，也是混濁
We’re all envious but content 貪婪，但也知足
We’re suffered, yet somehow entertained 受苦，仍不忘自嘲
We’re all generous, we’re all selfish 慷慨，但無法無私
We cross our hearts 只能祈願
hoping to die with the joy of sorrow 終能理解，苦澀的況味
We all learn more from pain 痛苦使人茁壯
We all smile while tears sneak in 嘴角揚起才好承接淚水
We all grin even when the world turns its back on us 即便被世界遺棄也望坦然
We’re like a pure flame, living by an invisible sun within us 我們像是淨火，只要心中陽光不滅
We’re all lost, we’re all determined 迷惘有時，堅定有時
We’re all traitors but not haters 轉身，卻還心懷念想
We’re silent, yet not completely mute 沈默，但非噤口不言
We’re all flawed, we’re all perfect 眼看缺陷，眼看無瑕
We’re all patiently impatient 我們耐心的隱忍
Waiting for the joy of sorrow 等待，磨難後的清明
We all learn more from pain 痛苦讓人茁壯
We all smile while tears sneak in 嘴角揚起才好承接淚水
We all grin even though the world turns its back on us 即便被世界遺棄也望坦然
We’re like a pure flame, living by an invisible sun within us 我們像是淨火，只要心中陽光不滅
We’re all proud, we’re all humble 既驕傲，也卑微
We’re eloquent but incoherent 好言，但條理難辨
We’re happy, yet oddly find it unbearable 快樂，卻無法由衷
We’re all young, we’re all mature 年輕，又似老成
We’re all blessed but often doomed 被眷顧，但也註定
Yearning to grasp the joy of sorrow 渴望汲取，來自哀傷的喜悅
eloquent中文 在 玳瑚師父 Master Dai Hu Facebook 的最佳貼文
【玳瑚師父客人見證】 《我生命中的良師益友》
A Good Teacher & A Valuable Friend in My Life (English version below)
文 / 黃騰慶 Written by: Joseph Ng
我早在2006年有幸和玳瑚师父会面，並得到他的慈悲提點，从我的中文姓名測試中更認識自己。我非常驚訝，也讚嘆師父測名的精準，于是請他賜我一個良名。師父他勞心為我量身撰了三个名字，也非常有责任地解釋每個名字選擇的精髓。過去的幾年，我都一直在用我的新名字，使我的職業生涯和人事關係有了顯著的進步。
我也有福份能夠請玳瑚師父到我剛購買的四方式組屋勘察風水。雖然這房子的總面積才那區區的92平方公米，但師父非常細心地看，費了3個小時才大功告成。我覺得真是物有所值！
師父他對這間屋宅的格局並無好評，說這房子是「無情」的，所以我們住進去不會有一個家該有的溫暖和溫馨。他勸我們住滿5年後就搬家。他說最好的風水莫過於先天的格局好，而不是人爲的佈局。我起初也不很重視他這一番忠告，但住在這房子一段時間後就開始懂了。我住在這房子無法一百巴仙自在，也無法真正的感受到家的溫暖。這間接影響了我在事業上的專注，也在某些程度上沖擊了我的婚姻。慶幸的是師父有提供一些在風水上補救的方法，不然我看我的痛苦會加倍。
我如今已不住在那間組屋單位了，也就更明顯地看見生活狀況的差異。還住在那裡的日子裏，我錯失了很多機會來提昇自己的生活。我無論多努力也看不見在錢財方面有轉機，更別提有貴人相助。一切一切都不順心。打從我搬家後，生活的改變迅速而明顯。現在住的地方也有請玳瑚師父來勘察風水。事業和錢財方面都大大改善，貴人也在沒有預料中出來拔刀相助。我在之前的那間組屋根本無美麗的回憶可言，所以我是絕對不會再搬回去那裡住的。
師父也不斷地提醒我年輕時應該多累積善功德，不要貪圖享樂。他說我和太太的先天福份不夠，所以才會拿到那麼差勁的屋子。如果我更早認識玳瑚師父，我一定會請他為我擇屋子。
師父他处事态度认真，外表严肃，但背后影藏着一颗博爱的心和的一個對于善用自己的生命和玄学知識去利益別人的堅定精神。 他拥有非常饱满的佛學知識，更非常樂意地與人分享，勸人向善。 那時候的我對宗教和人生有著許多疑惑，師父也不辭辛勞地為我解答。
對我而言，玳瑚師父不是一個普通的“算命先生”。他是一位言行一致的佛學老師，我生命中的良師益友！

I have had the privilege of engaging Master Dai Hu to do a name analysis for me way back in 2006. It was quite a surreal experience as what he told me, be it my personality traits, my childhood, my career and relationship, was stark accurate. I asked him to pen a new Chinese name for me. He came up with 3 name selections for me, and I was pleasantly surprised how eloquent they sounded. He painstakingly explained the essence of each name selection, and after much consideration, I chose one. I have been using my new name for the past several years, and have experienced positive changes in my career and relationships.
It was also my good fortune to be able to engage Master Dai Hu for a Feng Shui audit of my new 4-room flat. Even though the place was a mere 92sqm, he spent nearly 3 hours going into the details. It was definitely value for money! He did not have a good appraisal of the house, explaining that layout of the flat would not provide the warmth and comfort of a home, and advised us to move as soon as the 5-year Minimum Occupancy Period is up. He said the best Feng Shui comes from having a good layout in the first place and not man-made remedies. At first I did not give much thought to his advice but the longer I stayed there, I realized what he was trying to tell me. I did not feel fully settled at home and this affected my focus at work and to a certain extent, my marriage. Master Dai Hu did advise certain steps to mitigate the negative effect, and I am glad that things did not go any worse.
Now that I am not residing there any longer, the difference in my life is stark and telling. In the past, there were always missed opportunities. No matter how hard I worked, my finances were always in a rut. There were no benefactors in sight and things did not go my way at all. My life has improved tremendously in terms of my luck and career growth since I moved out. Master Dai Hu also did the Feng Shui audit of my current residence. I received unexpected assistance along the way and my career fared much better. There is no way I am going to stay in that house again for all the negative memories it has given me.
Master constantly reminded me not to indulge in worldly pleasures but instead, use the time to accumulate merits through virtuous deeds. He said my wife and I had insufficient merits to begin with in this life and thus ended up with a lousy flat layout. If I had known Master Dai Hu earlier, I would have definitely gotten him to assist in my house selection.
Behind his stern demeanor lies a very compassionate spirit with an insurmountable tenacity to make the best use of his life to help others through his vast experience in Chinese metaphysics. He also possesses a huge wealth of knowledge in Buddhism and is never afraid of sharing it. That was a great thing for me as I was, at that stage of my life, seeking more understanding into the religion and asking a lot of questions about life.
To me, Master Dai Hu is not just your usual "fortune teller". He is a teacher and a mentor in life and Buddhism, and most importantly, a brave and tenacious human being who walks the talk!
