My dear friends, Have you hear the saying, ‘Prehistoric power’ or ‘mystic energy’ or ‘full potential’ ?
I guess If you are a sport fan, especially like swimming, you should heard of it; If you care about Chinese Buzzwords, you’ve heard the phrase; If you use wechat, you're sure to see the word often.
The Chinese pronunciation of Prehistoric power is ‘Hong Huang zhi Li’. The word ’ Hong Huang’ first originated from ancient legends. It’s said that when the world came into being, there were several large floods that nearly destroyed the whole world. Therefore the prehistoric power can be understood as the mystical powers that can change the universe.
The word ’ Hong Huang’ was spread widely because it appeared in the Thousand Character Classic, which was written in more than 1 thousand years ago in the Liang dynasty(502-557). This book was in reality a primer. Almost every student of the past dynasties have read this book, and the very first statement in it was about ‘Hong Huang’.
In 2015, The phrase was frequently mentioned in the TV series " The Journey of Flower". It meant the boundless supernatural power and uncontrollable force of God demon in this hit drama.
In August 8 2016, A new Internet meme has emerged afterAn adorable Chinese swimmer Fu Yuanhui reacted exaggeratedly to her personal best performance in Rio Olympic women's backstroke semi-final. "I've been utilizing prehistoric powers." she told CCTV reporter. "The power" went viral, and often used to describe an extraordinary amount of energy.
Now, when we say that I have been using the prehistoric powers, it can be interpreted as I have tried my best, or I have given my full play, or I’ve spared no effort.
On the other hand, when a person say "I have been unable to control the power ", it means who’s temper, strength, endurance will be activated, just in a funny way.
This ancient word has given birth to new life and new meaning. It has now been widely used with ridicule。
Do you like the word? Have you already applied the word?
洪荒之力
亲爱的朋友,你听说过“洪荒之力”吗?
我想,如果你是一个体育迷,尤其是喜欢游泳,你应该听说过;如果你关心中国热语,你一定听说过这句话;如果你使用微信,你肯定会经常看到这个词。
洪荒之力的汉语发音是“Hong Huang zhi li”。“洪荒”这个词最初来自古代传说。据说,在世界刚刚形成的远古时期,发生过几次特大洪水,几乎毁灭整个世界。因此,洪荒之力可以理解为改变宇宙的神秘力量。
“洪荒”一词因为《千字文》这本书而在中国广泛流传。《千字文》写于1000多年前的南朝的梁代(502-557)。该书实际上是一本传统的启蒙读物,几乎历朝历代的学生都读过这本书,而这本书的第一句话 “天地玄黄 宇宙洪荒” 就是关于“洪荒”的。
2015年,这个词在电视连续剧《花千骨》中频频出现。在这部热播剧中,洪荒之力意味着无限神力和不可控制的妖神之力。
2016年8月8日,这个表达因为一名可爱的中国游泳运动员傅元慧而一夜串红。她在里约奥运会女子仰泳决赛取得个人最好成绩后反应夸张,“我已用尽洪荒之力”。她告诉中央电视台记者。新的网络热词由此诞生,常常用来描述非凡的能量。
现在,当我们说我已用了洪荒之力,可以解释为我已经尽我最大的努力,或者我已经充分发挥,或我不遗余力。
另一方面,当一个人说“我已经无法控制洪荒之力”,这意味着他的脾气,力量,耐力将被激活,这也是一种开玩笑的说法。
这个古老的词语在今天焕发了新的生机,有了新的寓意。洪荒之力一词现在已被人们广泛用于调侃。
你喜欢这个词吗,你会用这个词了吗?
