what does 加油 mean?

Step on the gas. A popular encouragement.

 

[Hyena]

That's it? I've got you beat, not just on beers, but all sorts of cocktails.

Bravo And you're in Michigan? It's late there right now! I had one with dinner and one to ease through the final two groups (and to help me get to sleep when it's over).

 

[bluebamboo]

It means 'go!'.
Literally it means 'add oil' lol

 

[Icey]

Since hola is available, why do countries bother with geo blocking? Will hola allow you to watch Ice Network?

 

[Ophelia]

what does 加油 mean?

It's meant to be a term of encouragement.

 

[ks777]

Add Petrol

really? a chinese fan was holding a sign says above..

 

[Alchamei]

Great combo!

 

[shiroKJ]

Hey am I the only one who likes Kanako's SP? Weird... thought her presentation is lovely. If one can like the quirkiness of Elena, why not Kanako.

I love her SP. It's beautiful. Her FP on the other hand. ....
So nervous for her...

 

[OS]

Yeah Add Petrol Hongo!!!!

 

[Ophelia]

That's the literal translation. The figurative translation is "GO [Name]!"

 

[willdu]

what does 加油 mean?

加油 means to add oil. In China you often chant that at athlete's telling them to push a bit harder! They're words of encouragement.

 

[Alchamei]

YES! triple Flipn and 2 Axel!

 

[mirai4life]

what the hell?

Ive never seen Rika fallen. this girl is crazy consistent

 

[burntBREAD]

Hongo's improved a lot artistically (especially posture-wise) with some work with Akiko Suzuki. Hope she continues to improve!

I love how she always lands that axel right on the beat.

 

[ice coverage]

Polina is warming up in her jacket...that seems unusual.

Not really unusual, IMO.

I like it as well! It has the mature lyrical essence that I miss from Yuna and that radiance that I miss from Akiko. A lovely combo, imo.

Lol kinda like adding oil to your car. Keep it going strong and efficient. Directly translated to english is weird but is commonly used in Chinese

 

[sabinfire]

Great job Rika. You show them how it's done on that horrible ice.

 

[Hanmgse]

Rika's consistency is no joke :shocked:

 

[evangeline]

With her long limbs, Rika has the potential to present such a striking image on the ice. But that posture and those shoulders are SO distracting, sigh.
