字词 好雨, 天留客。
释义
好雨, 天留客。

Hǎo yǔ, tiān liúkè.

Lit [By such a] good rain, Heaven has detained the guest.

Note [Said by a host when a guest is unable to part because of bad weather. This is a shorter version of a longer written sentence: xià yǔ(,) tiān(,) liú kè(;) tiān(;) liú(,) wǒ bù liú, often cited as a humorous ambiguity, where the punctuation marks in parenthesis indicate the possible pause junctures in reading. The alternative reading means: “When it rains, Heaven detains the guest(s); Heaven detains them, not I.” See also rén liú, sānfēn jiǎ below.]
