There’s a storm coming

(Not to mention the storm that’s already here)

前途多難
zen.to.ta.nan

Literally: before / front – road – many – difficult / trouble

Alternately: Hard times ahead.

Notes: Compare and contrast 前途有望 and 多事多難.

Now imagine that instead of rain, this is thousands of people dying of a preventable plague

About Confanity

I love the written word more than anything else I've had the chance to work with. I'm back in the States from Japan for grad school, but still studying Japanese with the hope of becoming a translator -- or writer, or even teacher -- as long as it's something language-related.
