[quote=BBQQ,281707]"I do feel safe using this one though... 贤内助 ... Of course, with my luck I mis-translated it...and it really means wicked old witch ;-) Oh, no Griz. 贤内助 doesn't mean wicked old witch. If you call your wife 贤内助, she will be very happy. In Chinese, 贤内助 means that the wife is very capable. She gives useful ideas to his husband, share his unhappiness and support her family members very well. Since my English is not good, I can't find a suiteable English word for 贤内助. The dictionary gives me a translation of 贤内助----helpful helpmate. Personally, I think that it has explained 贤内助 very well.[/quote]
