留名 [
liú míng]
leave behind a good reputation
- 他能够创办一所让他身后留名的银行吗?
Can he build a bank that will outlast him? - 而令它青史留名的正是其本身傻瓜式但杰出的设计——因为嘿,你可能要说,电子邮件同样充满了空洞的废话。
And what makes it historical is that it's stupid and splendid by virtue of its design—because Hey, you might say, Email is full of inane bullshit too. - 更重要的是,那些写作能力好的人有机会留名于世,因为他们最精辟的观点不会因为缺乏表达途径而只能被困于脑中。
More importantly, people who write well have the opportunity to make a mark in the world, because their best ideas aren’t trapped in their own minds for lack of a means of expression.
