2008-09-21 / 10:38PM | | Yes, I know it means “nerve”, but if you put “nerve” as it is in the sentence, maybe it doesn’t make sense at all.
三大原因牵动电力紧缺神经
Three reasons for affecting power shortage nerve???
If it means “nerve” even in the sentence, then maybe I’ve translated the sentence incorrectly. Can you please show me how it would be translated so it could make sense. Thankyou! | |
