The new won't come if the old doesn't go

There's a Chinese saying that "the new won't come if the old doesn't go." It is so true. I haven't updated my blog in a while, and I think it's about time to make a change. I've deleted my old blah blahs to start all over. Hopefully posts from now on will be more helpful for Chinese learning.

舊的不去，新的不來。/ Simp. Ch: 旧的不去，新的不来。

(jiu4 de bu2 qu4, xin1 de bu4 lai2)

The new won't come if the old doesn't go.

舊的 jiu4 de (adj/n) old; the old

去 qu4 (v) to go; to leave

新的 xin1 de (adj/n) new; the new

來 lai2 (v) to come
