我 係 陳凱琪 I|am|Chan Hoi Kei Mein Name ist Chen Kaiqi Jag heter Chen Kaiqi I am Chan Hoi Kei.

陳凱琪 有 一身 黑 皮膚 ，眼睛 圓碌碌 ，個 鼻 同 個 咀 都 唔 細 。 Chan Hoi Kei|has|a whole body|black|skin|eyes|round|measure word for people|nose|and|measure word for people|mouth|all|not|small Chan Hoi Kei has dark skin, round eyes, and a nose and mouth that are not small. 佢 笑 起 上嚟 ，有 一 個 酒渦 喺 左面 ，好 得意 。 He|laughed|up|came|has|one|measure word|wine swirl|at|left side|very|funny When she smiles, there is a dimple on the left side, which is very cute. 你 班 裏面 係咪 都 有 一 個 陳 凱琪 ？ you|class|inside|is it true|also|have|one|measure word|Chan|Hoi Kei Is there also a Chan Hoi Kei in your class? 噉 你 班 裏面 嗰個 陳 凱琪 係咪 好 文靜 㗎 ？ then|you|class|inside|that|Chan|Hoi Kei|is it|very|quiet|question particle Is that Chan Hoi Kei in your class very quiet? 係咪 好 勤力 讀書 ？ is it|very|hardworking|study Is she very hardworking in studying? 佢 個 樣 點 㗎 ？ he|measure word for people|appearance|how|question particle What does she look like? 我 講 呢 個 陳 凱琪 呢 ， 佢 唔 高 又 唔 矮 ， 排 班 隊 嘅 時候 ， 佢 成日 俾 老師 排 佢 喺 隊 中間 。 I'm talking about this Chen Kaiqi, she's neither tall nor short, and when lining up in class, the teacher always places her in the middle of the line. 前面 有 比 佢 細粒 嘅 同學 ， 後面 有 比 佢 高大 嘅 同學 ， 佢 就 係 被 夾 喺 中間 。 ||||smaller|||||||||||||||| There are shorter classmates in front of her and taller classmates behind her, so she is stuck in the middle.

早會 嘅 時候 ，陳凱琪 成日 要 趷高 腳 先至 可以 睇 清楚 少少 講緊 嘢 嗰 位 老師 個 樣 。 morning meeting|possessive particle|time|Chan Hoi Kei|always|needs|tiptoe|feet|only then|can|see|clearly|a little|talking about|thing|that|classifier for people|teacher|classifier for people|appearance During the morning assembly, Chen Kaiqi often has to stand on her tiptoes just to see a little bit of what the teacher at the front looks like. 不過 ，呢個 動作 ，佢 都 已經 好 耐 冇 做過 喇 ，因為 啲 老師 訓話 嚟嚟去去 都 係 噉 嘅 樣 ，噉 嘅 表情 ，都 冇 乜 好睇 ，不如 擘 大 眼 發 白日夢 好過 。 but|this|action|he|already|already|very|long|not|done|particle indicating completed action|because|plural marker|teacher|scolding|coming and going|all|are|like this|possessive particle|appearance|like this|possessive particle|expression|all|not|any|good to look at|better to|open|big|eyes|have|daydream|better than However, this action, she hasn't done it for a long time, because the teachers' lectures are always the same, with the same expressions, which aren't very appealing. It would be better to daydream with wide-open eyes.

其實 ，我 講緊 嗰個 陳 凱琪 都 只係 一 名 普通 嘅 小學 五 年級 學生 ，應該 同 你 識 嗰個 差唔多 啦 。 actually|I|talking about|that|Chan|Hoi Kei|also|only|one|classifier for people|ordinary|possessive particle|primary school|five|grade|student|should|with|you|know|that|similar|sentence-final particle Actually, I'm talking about that Chan Hoi Kei, who is just an ordinary fifth-grade student, probably similar to someone you know. 不過 ，呢個 女仔 身邊 嘅 人 總係 可以 好 輕易 噉 就 將 佢 記住 係 個 心 度 。 but|this|girl|around|possessive particle|people|always|can|very|easily|like that|then|to keep|her|remembered|in|the|heart|inside However, the people around this girl can always easily remember her in their hearts. 陳 凱琪 ， 陳 凱琪 ， 好 親切 噉 嗌 佢 個 名 ， 佢 就 會 笑 瞇 瞇 噉 應 你 ︰ 「 乜嘢 事 啊 ？」 Chan Hoi Kei, Chan Hoi Kei, when you call her name warmly, she will smile and respond to you: 'What’s the matter?'

但係 ，最近 ，陳凱琪 為咗 一 件 事 感到 有啲 煩惱 。 but|recently|Chan Hoi Kei|for|one|measure word for events|matter|felt|a bit|worried But recently, Chan Hoi Kei has been feeling a bit troubled about something.

呢 一 個 學期 ，學校 嚟 咗 一 位 肥 老師 。 this|one|measure word|semester|school|came|past tense marker|one|measure word|fat|teacher This semester, a chubby teacher came to the school. 佢 外表 望 落 去 好似 個 博士 ， 塊 面 成 個 波 噉 ， 戴 住 一 副 橢圓形 嘅 眼鏡 ， 眼鏡 細細 副 ， 眼鏡 下面 有 一 對 好 細 嘅 眼 ， 佢 唔 使 瞇 起 對 眼 都 覺得 佢 好似 瞇 起 對 眼 噉 嘅 樣 ， 眼神 好 慈祥 ， 但 又 有 啲 呆 呆笨 笨 噉 。 He looks like a doctor, with a round face, wearing a pair of oval glasses. The glasses are small, and beneath them are a pair of very small eyes. Even without squinting, he looks like he is squinting, and his gaze is very kind, but also a bit dull. 佢 每 日 著 啲 衫 都 一樣 ︰ 吊帶褲 ， 加 件 白藍格 恤衫 ， 恤衫 下 突出 佢 嗰 條 又 肥 又 白 嘅 頸 同 兩 對 肥 手臂 。 He wears the same clothes every day: suspenders and a white and blue checkered shirt. The shirt accentuates his thick and white neck and his two chubby arms. 對 手臂 有 好多 好多 摺 。 His arms have a lot of folds. 呢 位 老師 姓 魯 ，同學 都 叫 佢 做 魯 老師 。 this|measure word for people|teacher|surname|Lu|classmates|all|call|he|do|| This teacher's surname is Lu, and the students call him Teacher Lu. 的確 ，佢 又 真係 好 老 㗎 喇 。 indeed|he|also|really|very|old|sentence-final particle|past action particle Indeed, he is really quite old. 老 老師 ，係 啲 小朋友 心目中 ，呢個 名 仲係 唔 夠 佢 真人 老 。 old|teacher|is|plural marker|children|in the minds|this|name|still|not|enough|he|real|old In the minds of the children, the name 'Old Teacher' is still not enough compared to his real age.

有 傳聞 話 魯 老師 係 學校 嘅 前 校長 。 there is|rumor|that|Lu|teacher|is|school|possessive particle|former|principal There are rumors that Teacher Lu was the former principal of the school. 有 傳聞 話 魯 老師 係 現任 校長 嘅 老爺 ， 噉 即 係 現任 校長 係 前 校長 嘅 新抱 ？ There are rumors that Teacher Lu is the grandfather of the current principal, so does that mean the current principal is the new partner of the former principal? （媽啊 ！我 好 亂 呀 ！） Mom|I|very|confused|particle (Oh my! I'm so confused!) 更 有 傳聞 話 魯 老師 其實 係 校監 ，嚟 教 三 個 月 視察 下 環境 …… 傳聞 吱吱吱 噉 喺 校園 細細聲 揚 開去 。 even|has|rumor|saying|Lu|teacher|actually|is|principal|come|teach|three|measure word|month|inspect|under|environment|rumor|chirping|like that|at|campus|quietly|spread|away There are rumors saying that Teacher Lu is actually the supervisor, coming to teach for three months to inspect the environment... The rumors are quietly spreading around the campus.

陳凱琪 關心 嘅 唔係 呢啲 嗰啲 傳聞 ，而係 ……呢 一 個 魯 老師 啊 ，佢 真係 太 老 喇 ，居然 唔記得 佢 個 名 。 Chan Hoi Kei|cares|possessive particle|not|these|those|rumors|but rather|this|one|measure word|Mr Lu|teacher|ah|he|really|too|old|past action particle|unexpectedly|forgot|his|measure word|name Chen Kaiqi is not concerned about these rumors, but rather... this Teacher Lu, he is really too old, and actually forgot her name. 陳凱琪 認為 自己 都 算係 明白 事理 ，要求 合理 。 Chan Hoi Kei|believes|herself|also|can be considered|understanding|reason|demands|reasonable Chen Kaiqi believes she understands the situation and demands reasonable treatment. 佢 只不過 要求 一 位 一 星期 教 佢 九 堂 中文 嘅 老師 記 住 佢 個 名 ，而且 ，仲 係 喺 魯 老師 教 咗 一 個 月 之後 先至 有 呢個 要求 。 he|just|requested|a|classifier for people|one|week|teach|him|nine|classes|Chinese|possessive particle|teacher|remember|to|his|classifier for people|name|moreover|still|is|at|Mr Lu|teacher|taught|past tense marker|one|classifier for|month|after|only then|had|this|request She only asks that a teacher who teaches her nine Chinese classes a week remembers her name, and this request came only after Teacher Lu had been teaching for a month. 每 一 次 ， 陳 凱琪 舉手 答 問題 ， 魯 老師 都 淨 係 話 ︰ 「 嗰 位 黑 鼆鼆 嘅 同學 ， 係 ， 你 ， 請 你 回答 啦 。 」 Every time Chen Kaiqi raises her hand to answer a question, Teacher Lu only says: 'That student with the black hair, yes, you, please answer.' 或者 ，連 「黑鼆鼆 」都 慳 返 ，淨係 用 佢 嗰 隻 肥 手指 指 住 坐 喺 課室 中間 嘅 陳凱琪 ，示意 佢 答 問題 。 or|even|black cat|all|save|back|only|use|he|that|measure word for animals|fat|finger|point|at|sitting|in|classroom|middle|possessive particle|Chan Hoi Kei|gestured|she|answer|question Or, even save on calling her "Black Fatty", just use her fat finger to point at Chen Kaiqi sitting in the middle of the classroom, indicating her to answer the question. 魯 老師 記得 張永達 ，佢 記得 趙文芳 ，佢 又 記得 吳康明 ，硬係 唔記得 陳凱琪 呢個 名 ，陳凱琪 覺得 有啲 悶悶不樂 。 Mr Lu|teacher|remembers|Cheung Wing Tat|he|remembers|Chiu Man Fong|he|also|remembers|Ng Kong Ming|just|doesn't remember|Chan Hoi Kei|this|name|Chan Hoi Kei|feels|a bit|unhappy Teacher Lu remembers Zhang Yongda, he remembers Zhao Wenfang, he also remembers Wu Kangming, but he just can't remember the name Chen Kaiqi, which makes Chen Kaiqi feel a bit gloomy.

陳凱琪 希望 魯 老師 能夠 記住 佢 個 名 。 Chan Hoi Kei|hopes|Mr Lo|teacher|can|remember|he|possessive particle|name Chen Kaiqi hopes that Teacher Lu can remember her name. 佢 試 過 喺 小息 嘅 時候 跑 到 魯 老師 面前 ， 叫 魯 老師 以後 唔 好 再 叫 佢 做 「 黑 鼆鼆 嘅 同學 」 ， 要 叫 佢 「 陳 凱琪 」 。 She tried to run in front of Teacher Lu during recess, asking him not to call her "Black Fatty's classmate" anymore, but to call her "Chen Kaiqi". 魯 老師 係噉 講 對唔住 ，解釋 話 佢 教 嘅 學生 太 多 ，有時 好 難 記住 每 一 個 學生 嘅 名 ，但係 佢 應承 今次 佢 會 記住 ，仲 用 手 輕輕 拍 下 陳凱琪 個 頭 ，叫 一 聲 「陳凱琪 」。 Mr Lo|teacher|is like this|said|sorry|explained|that|he|teaches|possessive particle|students|too|many|sometimes|very|hard|to remember|every|one|measure word|student|possessive particle|name|but|he|promised|this time|he|will|remember|also|used|hand|gently|tapped|on|Chan Hoi Kei|measure word|head|called|one|time|Chan Hoi Kei Teacher Lu said sorry, explaining that he has too many students to teach, and sometimes it's hard to remember each student's name, but he promised that this time he would remember, and gently patted Chen Kaiqi's head, calling out "Chen Kaiqi". 陳凱琪 好 滿意 噉 走開 咗 喇 。 Chan Hoi Kei|very|satisfied|like that|go away|past tense marker|sentence final particle Chan Hoi Kei is very satisfied and has walked away.

但係 ，過 咗 兩 日 ，魯 老師 好 明顯 已經 唔記得 咗 佢 個 名 。 but|passed|past tense marker|two|days|Mr Lu|teacher|very|obviously|already|forgot|past tense marker|he|measure word|name However, after two days, Teacher Lu clearly has forgotten her name. 當 佢 想 叫 陳凱琪 答 問題 嘅 時候 ，佢 話 到 嘴邊 又 講 唔 出嚟 嘅 神情 已經 出賣 咗 佢 。 when|he|wanted|to ask|Chan Hoi Kei|to answer|question|possessive particle|time|he|said|to|lips|again|to speak|not|out|possessive particle|expression|already|betrayed|past tense marker|he When he wanted to ask Chan Hoi Kei to answer a question, the expression on his face, as he struggled to say it, gave him away. 於是 魯 老師 又 會 裝模作樣 噉 去 揾 下 個 座位 表 ，但 又 揾 唔 到 喎 。 so|Mr Lu|teacher|again|will|act pretentiously|like that|go|look for|next|measure word|seat|chart|but|again|look for|not|arrive|particle indicating realization So Teacher Lu pretended to look for the seating chart, but he couldn't find it. 最後 佢 惟有 叫 另 一 位 同學 黃 靜儀 答 問題 ， 而 黃 靜儀 根本 冇 舉 過 手 ！ In the end, he had no choice but to ask another student, Huang Jing Yi, to answer the question, even though Huang Jing Yi hadn't raised her hand at all! 同 一 日 嘅 晏晝 ，第 二 節 中文課 ，魯 老師 甚至乎 已經 唔記得 晒 上晝 發生 嘅 事 ，直接 叫 陳凱琪 做 「嗰 位 女 同學 」。 same|one|day|possessive particle|afternoon|ordinal number particle|two|period|Chinese class|Lu (surname)|teacher|even|already|forgot|completely|morning|happened|possessive particle|thing|directly|called|Chan Hoi Kei (name)|do|that|classifier for people|female|classmate On the afternoon of the same day, during the second Chinese class, Teacher Lu had even forgotten everything that happened in the morning and directly referred to Chen Kaiqi as "that female classmate." 陳凱琪 唔好意思 喺 全班 面前 提醒 老師 佢 自己 個 名 ，但 佢 喺 個 心 度 係噉 諗 ，要 諗到 個 方法 叫 魯 老師 記住 佢 個 名 。 Chan Hoi Kei|sorry|at|the whole class|in front of|remind|teacher|he|himself|possessive particle|name|but|he|in|possessive particle|heart|inside|like that|thought|need|think of|possessive particle|method|to call|Mr Lo|teacher|remember|his|possessive particle|name Chen Kaiqi felt embarrassed to remind the teacher of her name in front of the whole class, but in her heart, she was thinking about how to make Teacher Lu remember her name.

返 到 屋企 ， 佢 攤開 寫 俾 魯 老師 嘅 周記 簿 ， 用 咗 二百 字 寫 咗 佢 嘅 小小 心願 ， 仲 表明 呢 個 只 係 一 個 好 合理 嘅 要求 ， 更 喺 文章 下低 貼 咗 一 幅 佢 嘅 近照 。 When she got home, she opened her diary that she wrote for Teacher Lu and used two hundred words to write about her small wish, also stating that this was just a very reasonable request, and even attached a recent photo of herself at the bottom of the article.

效果 ？ effect The result? 滿意 。 satisfied Satisfied. 喺 交 咗 周記簿 嘅 頭 一 個 禮拜 ，魯 老師 真係 記得 佢 個 名 。 at|hand in|past tense marker|weekly journal|possessive particle|first|one|measure word|week|Mr Lo|teacher|really|remembered|he|measure word|name In the first week after submitting the journal, Teacher Lu really remembered her name. 陳凱琪 做 咗 個 小 統計 ，佢 喺 中文堂 舉手 答 問題 嘅 次數 一 個 禮拜 總共 有 四十三 次 ，即係 平均 每 堂 四點七七七七七 無限 個 七 次 。 Chan Hoi Kei|did|past tense marker|measure word|small|statistic|she|at|Chinese class|raised hand|answer|question|possessive particle|frequency|one|measure word|week|in total|has|forty-three|times|that means|average|every|class|4777777|infinite|measure word|7|times Chen Kaiqi did a little statistic; she raised her hand to answer questions in Chinese class a total of forty-three times in one week, which is an average of four point seven seven seven seven seven recurring times per class. 魯 老師 請 佢 答 問題 嘅 次數 有 十 次 ，每 次 都 叫 佢 「陳凱琪 」，準確 無誤 ！ Mr Lo|teacher|please|he|answer|question|possessive particle|number of times|has|ten|times|every|time|all|called|him|Chan Hoi Kei|accurate|without error Teacher Lu asked her to answer questions ten times, and each time he called her "Chen Kaiqi," accurately and without error! 陳凱琪 覺得 好 滿意 。 Chan Hoi Kei|feels|very|satisfied Chen Kaiqi felt very satisfied. 雖然 ， 讀 住 魯 老師 喺 周記 簿 裏面 嗰 句 ︰ 「 名字 有時 不 代表 什麼 」 ， 佢 其實 都 唔 係 好 明 魯 老師 想 講 乜 ， 但 係 佢 好 有 信心 魯 老師 今 次 一定 會 將 佢 個 名 記 住 。 Although she read the sentence in Teacher Lu's journal: "Names sometimes do not represent anything," she actually did not quite understand what Teacher Lu meant, but she was very confident that Teacher Lu would definitely remember her name this time.

但係 ，原來 事情 冇 佢 想像 咁 順利 。 but|originally|thing|not|he|imagined|so|smoothly However, it turns out that things are not as smooth as he imagined. 第二 個 禮拜 ，魯 老師 已經 唔再 成日 叫 佢 答 問題 。 second|measure word|week|Mr Lo|teacher|already|no longer|every day|calls|he|answer|question In the second week, Teacher Lu no longer called on him to answer questions all the time. 可能 魯 老師 想 俾 啲 機會 其他 同學 啦 。 maybe|Mr Lo|teacher|wants|to give|some|opportunities|other|students|sentence-final particle Perhaps Teacher Lu wanted to give some opportunities to other students. 始終 一 班 有 咁 多 個 學生 ，老師 都 唔係 每 一 個 學生 都 可能 照顧 到 。 after all|one|class|has|so|many|measure word|students|teacher|also|not|every|one|measure word|student|all|possible|take care of|to After all, with so many students in a class, it's not possible for the teacher to attend to every single student. 呢個 道理 ，小學 五 年級 嘅 陳凱琪 係 明白 嘅 。 this|reasoning|primary school|5|grade|possessive particle|Chan Hoi Kei|is|understand|past tense particle This principle is understood by Chen Kaiqi, a fifth grader. 不過 ， 到 咗 第 三 個 禮拜 ， 魯 老師 已經 完全 唔 記得 咗 陳 凱琪 個 名 ， 淨 係 叫 佢 做 「 嗰 位 靚 同學 」 ， 搞 到 全班 同學 喺 度 笑 佢 。 However, by the third week, Teacher Lu had completely forgotten Chen Kaiqi's name and only referred to her as "that pretty classmate," which made the whole class laugh at her.

有冇 搞錯 ！ is there|a mistake Are you kidding me! 「黑鼆鼆 」已經 唔掂 ，家下 仲要 叫 我 做 「靚 同學 」。 black cat|already|not good|at home|still|call|me|be|pretty|classmate "Black Chinchilla" is already bad enough, and now I have to be called "pretty classmate." 救命 啊 ！ help|ah Help! 陳凱琪 於是 又 喺度 動腦筋 ，要 諗 個 辦法 令 呢位 老 老師 記住 佢 個 名 。 Chan Hoi Kei|so|again|here|think hard|needs to|think of|a|method|to make|this|old|teacher|remember|his|a|name Chen Kaiqi then started brainstorming, trying to think of a way to make this teacher remember her name. 佢 返到 屋企 用 電腦 造咗 張 好 精美 嘅 名片 ，仲 特登 用 手提電話 為 自己 自拍 一 張 全身 學生相 ，加 一 張 半身 嘅 。 He|arrived at|home|used|computer|made|a|very|exquisite|possessive particle|business card|also|specially|used|mobile phone|for|himself|took a selfie|a|a|full-body|student photo|added|a|a|half-body|possessive particle She returned home and used the computer to create a very exquisite business card, and even specially took a full-body student photo of herself with her mobile phone, along with a half-body one. 全身 嘅 貼 喺 名片 背面 ，半身 嗰 張 就 貼 喺 自己 個 名 隔籬 。 full body|possessive particle|stick|at|business card|back|half body|that|measure word for flat objects|then|stick|at|self|possessive particle|name|next to The full-body photo was pasted on the back of the business card, while the half-body one was pasted next to her name. 名片 上 三 個 字 好 大 ︰ 陳 凱琪 ， 用 咗 四十八 號 字體 ， 標楷 字型 。 The three characters on the business card were very large: Chan Hoi Kei, using font size forty-eight, in standard script. 名 下面 係 佢 嘅 班別 同埋 學號 。 Name|below|is|he|possessive particle|class|and|student ID Below the name were her class and student number. 佢 將 名片 拎去 書局 過膠 ，放 喺 自製 嘅 盒仔 裏面 ，綁 條 絲帶 ，送 俾 魯 老師 。 He|will take|business card|take to|bookstore|laminate|put|in|handmade|possessive particle|small box|inside|tie|a|ribbon|give|to|Mr Lu|teacher She took the business card to the bookstore to laminate it, placed it in a self-made box, tied it with a ribbon, and gave it to Teacher Lu.

魯 老師 笑 住 收 小 禮盒 。 Mr Lu|teacher|||received|small|gift box Teacher Lu smiled as he received a small gift box. 然後 ，每 一 日 喺 集隊 之前 ，魯 老師 都 會 走去 陳凱琪 前面 叫 一 聲 「陳凱琪 ，早晨 。」 then|every|one|day|at|assembly|before|Mr|teacher|all|would|walk to|Chan Hoi Kei|in front|call|one|shout|Chan Hoi Kei|good morning Then, every day before the assembly, Teacher Lu would walk up to Chan Hoi Kei and call out, "Chan Hoi Kei, good morning." 雖然 玩 玩 下 突然 有 一 位 肥 老師 無啦啦 同 自己 講 早晨 係 有啲 煩 ，但係 陳凱琪 都 會 好 高興 噉 應 一 聲 ︰ 「魯 老師 ，早晨 ！」 although|play|play|for a while|suddenly|has|one|classifier for people|fat|teacher|out of nowhere|with|herself|said|good morning|is|a bit|annoying|but|Chan Hoi Kei|also|will|very|happy|like that|respond|one|sound|Mr Lo|teacher|good morning Although it was a bit annoying when a chubby teacher suddenly said good morning to her out of the blue, Chan Hoi Kei would still happily respond, "Teacher Lu, good morning!"

兩 個 禮拜 過 咗 ，魯 老師 唔記得 陳凱琪 個 名 嘅 跡象 又 出現 喇 ！ two|measure word|weeks|past|completed action particle|Mr Lu|teacher|forgets|Chan Hoi Kei|measure word|name|possessive particle|sign|again|appears|particle indicating a change of state Two weeks passed, and the signs of Teacher Lu forgetting Chan Hoi Kei's name appeared again! 佢 首先 唔再 叫 陳凱琪 答 問題 ，跟住 就 叫 佢 「嗰 位 同學 」，淡忘 嘅 情況 同 之前 差唔多 ，不幸 中 嘅 幸運 係 佢 冇 叫 陳凱琪 做 「靚 同學 」或者 「黑鼆鼆 」或者 「有 個 酒凹 嗰個 」。 he|first|no longer|called|Chan Hoi Kei|answer|question|then|just|called|her|that|classifier for people|classmate|forgetting|possessive particle|situation|with|before|almost|unfortunate|in|possessive particle|fortunate|is|she|not|called|Chan Hoi Kei|as|pretty|classmate|or|blackie|or|has|classifier for people|wine stain|that one First, he stopped calling Chan Hoi Kei to answer questions, then he referred to her as "that student." The situation of forgetfulness was almost the same as before, but the silver lining was that he didn't call Chan Hoi Kei "pretty student," "blackie," or "the one with the wine dimple."

陳凱琪 呢 幾 日 ，都 全心全意 喺度 諗 要 點樣 令 魯 老師 永遠 記得 佢 個 名 。 Chan Hoi Kei|these|few|days|all|wholeheartedly|here|think|how|how|make|Mr Lo|teacher|forever|remember|he|his|name Chan Hoi Kei has been wholeheartedly thinking about how to make Teacher Lu remember her name forever these past few days. 哈 ， 居然 變 得 好 挑戰 好 好玩 噉 。 Ha, it has surprisingly become quite a challenging and fun experience. 比起 佢 最 怕 嘅 數學科 ，呢 種 挑戰 有趣 得 多 。 compared to|he|most|afraid of|possessive particle|math subject|this|kind|challenge|interesting|much|more Compared to her greatest fear, mathematics, this kind of challenge is much more interesting.

早會 嘅 時候 ，陳凱琪 又 企 喺 人龍 中 入定 ，專心 喺度 諗 令 魯 老師 記 住 佢 個 名 嘅 方法 。 morning meeting|possessive particle|time|Chan Hoi Kei|again|stood|in|line of people|within|settled|focused|there|thinking|to make|Mr Lo|teacher|remember|to keep|her|measure word|name|possessive particle|method During the morning assembly, Chan Hoi Kei stood in the crowd, focusing on thinking of ways to make Teacher Lu remember her name. 然後 ，佢 俾 同學 集體 嘅 交談 聲 帶 返 返 嚟 早會 度 。 then|he|gave|classmates|group|possessive particle|conversation|sound|brought|back|return|come|morning meeting|at Then, she was brought back to the morning assembly by the collective chatter of her classmates. 後邊 有人 話 ︰ 「 都 話 魯 老師 係 我 哋 嘅 校監 嚟 㗎 啦 。 」 Someone at the back said: "It's said that Teacher Lu is our supervisor." 左面 嘅 就 回應 話 ︰ 「 原來 係 真 㗎 喎 。 」 The person on the left responded: "So it really is true." 右邊 隔籬 班 同學 話 ︰ 「 魯 老師 要 走 喇 ， 有 啲 唔 捨得 呀 。 」 A classmate from the right said: "Teacher Lu is leaving, I feel a bit reluctant." 陳凱琪 搖 下 個 頭 ，想 將 由 前後 左右 傳嚟 嘅 聲音 隔開 去 ，好好 聽 清楚 魯 老師 透過 擴音器 傳嚟 嘅 說話 。 Chan Hoi Kei|shake|down|measure word for people|head|want|to separate|from|front and back|left and right|coming from|possessive particle|sound|isolate|away|very well|hear|clearly|Mr|teacher|through|microphone|coming from|possessive particle|speech Chen Kaiqi shook her head, trying to separate the sounds coming from all directions, to clearly hear what Teacher Lu was saying through the microphone. 魯 老師 嘅 聲音 比 平時 更 低沉 更 朦朧 ︰ 「 好 高興 有 機會 同 你 哋 一齊 學習 ， 我 為 你 哋 感到 好 Teacher Lu's voice was deeper and more indistinct than usual: "I am very happy to have the opportunity to learn with you all, I feel very...

自豪 。 proud Proud. 返去 之後 ，我 會 將 我 呢 三 個 月 嘅 觀察 寫低 ，研究 一下 對 你哋 嚟 講 ，乜嘢 先 算 係 最 好 嘅 學習 。」 go back|after|I|will|put down|I|these|three|measure word|months|possessive particle|observations|write down|study|a bit|to|you all|come|say|what|first|count|is|most|good|possessive particle|learning After going back, I will write down my observations from these three months and study what is considered the best learning for you.

陳凱琪 旁邊 嘅 謝穎心 喊 咗 出嚟 。 Chan Hoi Kei|next to|possessive particle|Tse Wing Sum|cried|past tense marker|out Xie Yingxin, next to Chen Kaiqi, started crying. 漸漸 ，喊 嘅 同學 越嚟越 多 ，一 個 傳染 一 個 噉 。 gradually|shout|possessive particle|classmates|more and more|many|one|measure word|infects|one|measure word|like that Gradually, more and more classmates began to cry, one infecting another. 陳凱琪 見到 好多 同學 嘅 眼圈 都 紅 咗 。 Chan Hoi Kei|saw|many|classmates|possessive particle|eye circles|all|red|past tense marker Chen Kaiqi noticed that many classmates had red circles around their eyes. 佢 雖然 覺得 魯 老師 真係 好 老 ，又 肥 ，又 冇 記性 ，但 佢 都 唔 捨得 魯 老師 走 啊 ，佢 都 開始 流 眼淚 ，數 唔 清 有 幾多 滴 淚水 喇 。 he|although|thinks|Mr Lu|teacher|really|very|old|and|fat|and|has no|memory|but|he|also|not|willing to|Mr Lu|teacher|leave|ah|he|also|started|to flow|tears|count|not|clear|has|how many|drops|tears|already Although he thinks that Teacher Lu is really old, fat, and forgetful, he still can't bear to see Teacher Lu leave, and he starts to shed tears, unable to count how many drops of tears there are. 校長 想 講 啲 安撫 嘅 說話 ，不過 ，大家 都 聽 唔 入 耳 。 principal|wants|to say|some|comforting|possessive particle|words|but|everyone|all|to hear|not|into|ear The principal wants to say some comforting words, but no one is listening. 堂 仍然 都 係 要 上 ，於是 ，大家 都 靜靜 噉 喊 住 返 上 課室 。 class|still|all|is|have to|go up|so|everyone|all|quietly|like that|cry|continuously|return|to|classroom Class still has to go on, so everyone quietly cries as they return to the classroom.

最後 嗰 兩 節 由 魯 老師 教 嘅 中文堂 ，大家 都 爭住 問 魯 老師 問題 。 finally|that|two|class|by|Mr Lu|teacher|taught|past tense marker|Chinese class|everyone|all|eagerly|ask|Mr Lu|teacher|questions In the last two periods of Chinese class taught by Teacher Lu, everyone eagerly asks Teacher Lu questions. 你 要 返去 邊度 呀 ？ you|want|go back|where|question particle Where do you have to go back to? 邊個 教 我哋 中文 呀 ？ who|teach|us|Chinese|question particle Who is teaching us Chinese? 你 到底 有 幾 老 喇 ？ you|exactly|have|how|old|sentence-final particle How old are you actually? 你 可唔可以 俾 你嘅 電郵 聯絡 我哋 呀 ？ you|can or cannot|give|your|email|contact|us|question particle Can you give us your email to contact you? 魯 老師 都 笑 住 一一 回答 。 Mr Lu|teacher|all|||one by one|answered Teacher Lu smiled and answered one by one. 然後 魯 老師 拎 咗 疊 信 出嚟 ，將 信 一 封 一 封 噉 派 俾 每 一 位 同學 。 then|Mr Lu|teacher|took|past tense marker|stack|letter|out|to distribute|letter|one|envelope|one|envelope|like this|distribute|to|every|one|individual|student Then Teacher Lu took out a stack of letters and distributed them to each student one by one.

信 裏面 有 簡短 幾 句 對 同學 嘅 叮囑 ，大部份 都 係 關於 學習 方面 嘅 。 letter|inside|has|short|a few|sentences|to|classmates|possessive particle|reminders|most|all|are|about|study|aspect|possessive particle The letter contains a few brief reminders for the students, most of which are related to learning. 每 個 人 都 唔一樣 。 every|measure word for people|person|all|different Everyone is different. 魯 老師 話 ， 呢 啲 係 佢 對 同學 喺 呢 三 個 月 裏面 嘅 觀察 ， 係 佢 批改 學生 功課 、 默書 、 測驗 時 得到 嘅 結果 ， 雖然 好 短 ， 但 已經 用 咗 佢 好多 晚 嘅 時間 同埋 工夫 。 Teacher Lu said that these are his observations of the students over the past three months, based on the results he obtained while grading students' homework, dictations, and tests. Although it is very brief, he has already spent a lot of his evenings and effort on it. 陳 凱琪 翻開 佢 嗰 封 信 ， 信 裏面 寫 住 ︰ 「 凱琪 ， 如果 作文 能 多 用 上 形容詞 ， 會 令 文章 更 豐富 。 Chen Kaiqi opened her letter, which said: "Kaiqi, if you can use more adjectives in your essay, it will make the writing richer. 還有 ，請 留心 寫字 的 筆劃 。 also|please|pay attention to|writing|possessive particle|strokes Also, please pay attention to the strokes when writing." 對了 ，名字 其實 真的 很 重要 嗎 ？ right|name|actually|really|very|important|question particle By the way, is a name really that important? 我 不 一定 記得 你 的 名字 ， 但 我 會 記得 那 一 位 上課 時 勇於 回答 問題 的 女孩子 。 I may not remember your name, but I will remember that girl who bravely answered questions in class. 就算 沒有 了 名字 ，你 仍 是 很 獨特 的 。」 even if|without|past tense marker|name|you|still|are|very|unique|possessive particle Even without a name, you are still very unique.

鐘聲 響起 ， 啲 同學 喊 住 噉 同 魯 老師 講 「 再見 」 ， 當然 都 有 同學 冇 喊 。 As the bell rang, the classmates shouted 'goodbye' to Teacher Lu, although some classmates didn't shout. 平時 轉堂 時 嘈雜 嘅 課室 ， 好 靜 ， 淨 係 聽 到 紙張 摺疊 嘅 聲音 ， 嘶 —— 嘶 —— ， 同學 將 魯 老師 嘅 信 ， 一 封 一 封 噉 放 返 入去 雪白 嘅 信封 裏面 。 In the usually noisy classroom during class changes, it was very quiet, only the sound of paper folding could be heard, sss—sss—, as the classmates put Teacher Lu's letters back into the pure white envelopes, one by one.
