ahem. He's praising a sentence from last month Unless he didn't read the thread and came up with
exactly the same thing, in which case it must be right

I try to explain the usage of "倾没" in this sentense, but I worry my poor English can't manage
it. So I will use some chinese in my explaination, please excuse me.

In my opinion, we can't tranlate this sentense by it's literal meaning for the expression of the
word "qing mo" is vivid in chinese but not in English. As you know, words of chinese are always
consisted of chinese character, and in this sentense, the word "倾没" also include two character
"倾" and "没", each character means a movement.

"倾没", which is consisted of two coherent movement, can describe the static state of rainbow to
a conherent process, especially the movements "qing" and "mo" have 独特的意象.
“倾”是带有强大力量快速弧线下落，“没”是缓慢的无声的动作，有凝固�
��感觉。这两个字的连用描写了一幅运动的庞大的彩虹图画。So I think if we
want to translate this sentense, we should use the English with the same power , instead of
translating it literally.
