(*新年快樂!我希望二〇二四對大家好。多學習,多快樂,多愛,多創作,多健康。*:)今年我有計劃繼續自習。感謝大家幫助我學中文,而我希望我也可以幫助你學英文。)

因為我去年開始熱情的喝各種的茶,所以最近好奇我父母的對茶的看法。我問我媽,但她告訴我她從來對茶沒有那麼大的印象,只會在教會或餐點裡喝一兩杯。其實,是我爸爸很愛喝茶。

如此當我想要洞察力時,我只能察一個愛茶人的廢墟,而想知道那些故事和意見。一個有各種各樣的舊茶壺和茶杯的食品儲藏室。兩個充滿了很多快用光了茶袋子的廚房櫃子,一些比較新的,一些比較舊的。日前在鋼琴旁邊我竟然找到了一個在盒子裡還沒用過的台灣紅色的茶壺。而在某個時間點有一個廚房抽屜被清除了為了放一個圓圈茶葉,現在永遠一半月亮。我和我媽媽不知道是哪種。我猜測是普洱。


Lately, I've been pretty curious about tea from my parents' point of view. I tried asking my mom for her take, but as it turns out, she was apparently never that into tea beyond the customary cups at church or in restaurant; rather, it was my dad who was the aficionado.

So whenever I'm looking for insight, the best I can do is to just observe the remnants of a tea lover and wonder about the anecdotes. A pantry scattered with those old teapots and cups varying in size and shape. Two kitchen cabinets' worth of near-empty bags dating back 20+ years. The other day by our piano I found what appears to be a Taiwanese red clay teapot still in its silk-lined box, unused. And there's a kitchen drawer that at some (more recent) point in time was cleared out entirely for a full cake of compressed tea leaves, now a half-moon in perpetuity. Neither of us have any idea what kind it is. My best guess is Pu-erh.

Could you post the native context?
Are「多學習」「多創作」 what you inspire people to keep learning and creating?

其實相反地,是我爸爸很愛喝茶。

If you want to express the opposite opinion of your father (your father likes tea, but your mother doesn't)
By the way, can 'rather' be replaced by 'conversely'?



如此

I supplemented michael122's answer.
I think 'insight' here is not easy to translate, it's better to specify what it is in Mandarin.
The things he left is tea set, right? If so, here the translation of 'tea pot' is.
'anecdotes' in Chinese is 趣聞 or 軼事, but i think both of 2 are kind of formal. It's up to a writer's style.

1)I was trying to express that I hope 2024 is full of learning, creating, happiness, and health.
2) Yes, if expressing an opposite opinion, conversely works! Conversely more strictly means on the other hand/expressing opposite ideas, whereas rather can have other meanings depending on the context.
3) 感謝你,Absinthe!

What "Insight" specifically did you want to get? Is that what kind of tea your dad likes?

一個有各種各樣的舊茶壺和茶杯的食品儲藏室。

兩個廚房櫃子放滿了很多快用光了茶袋子的廚房櫃子的茶包,一些比較新的,一些比較舊的。

日前在鋼琴旁邊我竟然找到了一個在盒子裡還沒用過的紅色台灣紅色的茶壺。

而在某個時間點有一個廚房抽屜被清除了為了放一個圓圈茶葉,,為了放一塊茶葉餅,被清空了,(現在永遠一半月亮?)

I didn't get what does "a half-moon in perpetuity" mean. Is that an idiom?

謝謝你幫助我!對不起,我原本的句子沒有那麼清楚。關於你的問題:
1)By this I meant whenever I'm feeling curious/wanting insight on my dad's opinions, knowledge, history, preparation methods, and personal stories about tea, I just look at the things he left and wonder about all that he could possibly tell me. I can't actually get that insight, so I just take stock of the physical items.
2) The tea cake will remain half-used/a half-moon shape because my mom objects to using it/insists on leaving it as it was last used.
而我的中文能力還是很差;年我的字應該會有一點無聊。如此,我感謝你還花時間幫助我!

那你可以這樣寫:
1) 當我想了解爸爸對品茶的認識和研究,...
2) ... 現在茶餅只剩下了一半,而媽媽也不讓我碰它。
你寫得很不錯啊,我也很喜歡飲茶
