In consequence, a large number of terms existing are employed approximately to connote imported ideas, as the various Chinese translators understood those ideas. Various translators invented different terms; and, even when the same term was finally adopted, its connotation varied, sometimes widely, from the Chinese term of phrase as normally used by the Chinese. For instance, klésa undoubtedly has a meaning in Sanskrit similar to that of, i.e. affliction, distress, trouble. In Buddhism affliction (or, as it may be understood from Chinese, the afflicters, distressers, troublers) means passions and illusions; and consequently fan-nao in Buddhist phraseology has acquired this technical connotation of the passions and illusions. Many terms of a similar character are noted in the body of this work. Consequent partly on this use of ordinary terms, even a well-educated Chinese without a knowledge of the technical equivalents finds himself unable to understand their implications. 606 $aBuddhism$vDictionaries$xChinese 606 $aChinese language$vDictionaries$xEnglish 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aBuddhism$xChinese. 615 0$aChinese language$xEnglish. 676 $a294.303 700 $aHodous$b Lewis$0648699 702 $aSoothill$b William E. 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464409003321 996 $aA Dictionary of Chinese Buddhist Terms$91983269 997 $aUNINA
