| I 动 be predetermined by fate; be predestined; have a bond; have an affinity: |
| | 有缘千里能相会，无缘对面不相逢。 If there is a bond between them, the two will meet across a thousand li; without a bond, they will not meet though face to face. |
| | 我们真有缘，又碰见了。 It's fate for us to meet again. |
| | 你俩结为夫妻，是前世有缘。 Your union was predestined from a previous incarnation. |
| | 余平生与梅有缘，既画之，又赋之。 All my life I have had an affinity with plum blossoms. Having painted them, I also versify them. |
