So when I was writing the post for 漣漪 I learned this 成語. What I found interesting was that the verb used with waves and ripples is 起. We saw it in the 漣漪 post and now we’re seeing it again here. I don’t have much else to say about this one. Keep it in your arsenal, it’s a good one. 🙂

OK, so I’ve got beef with this one. Let’s make this our next post, shall we?
