[quote=LEONARDO,356575]This phrase is a headache for many interpreters and translators. Recently, Ren Xiaoping, the Chinese Ambassador in Namibia, has published an article addressing the problem. She collected several versions of the phras: 1.don't flip flop 2.don't get sidetracked 3.don't sway back and forth 4.no dithering 5.no major changes 6.avoid futile actions 7.stop making trouble and wasting time 8.no self-consuming political movements 9.avoid self-inflicted setbacks She thinks "avoid self-inflicted setbacks" is the best translation of "不折腾".[/quote]
