peer agreement (net): +3a man of very high aspirations Explanation: This phrase should be “心气很高”, I guess. “心性很高”is acceptable, but not authentic. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-01-12 09:17:26 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- cting, 谢谢您的深入解释。“心性”是高深的宗教哲学用语，在此处的语境中不适用；不过在口语中，“心性”也许可以读成“心性儿”，于是“心性儿高”的意思是“自视甚高”“总想与他人一较短长”；与“心气儿”类似，或许就是“心气”误读而成。 Bill |
