至于中翻英，这个养成习惯了，可能最后变成说非常拗口的老外都很难理解的英文。我一直觉得英文是一门很有意思的语言，大部分的人的用词， word by word， 都普通得不行，但就这些普通的词语组织好了以后如行云流水，生动活泼。所以与其花时间假想我这句中文要是用英语来说怎么弄，还不如花时间乱看英文原文，发现英文里你都没想到的表达方式。
没强求用什么语言思维，your brain does what it does。我们学英语都是从不停地互翻过来的，事实证明这个方法不好使，那还花时间强化这个习惯干嘛？比如说，别人说“thank you", 你说“you are welcome"，有必要讨论它是等于“没关系”， “不客气”，还是“不用谢”吗？

It's still possible. Somehow depends on how you receive the information initially. Myself is an example. For many things I'm thinking in English now.

First, I am not sure if you are the 'softface'. I was getting a little bored of the Idiom translations that he constantly posted here. So I tried to check whether he would be good at the translation by giving him a few sentences. -- Disappointed.

In fact, I did benefit from Chinese-English translation from here, I learnt something from Detective and he helped me refresh my memory from time to time.

If you put it in English, I may learn something from you. In fact, the way you recommend does not contradict the Chinese-English translation, they complement each other.

I don't think they contradict each other either. All I'm saying is that doing translation exercises is not very helpful, if at all.

To be honest, I usually skip the posts in English if they appear to be too Chinese, which do more harm than good to me, I'd rather read the Chinese-English translation

If you didn't prefer it, just ignore. Please don't discourage someone like "softface" who likes to post those translations, that may give benefits to someone else.

Hey, have some faith in Softface, :-). He won't be so easily "discouraged". Personally I quite like him, he's a lot more interesting than many people in this forum.

".. he's a lot more interesting .." -- Is he just 【interesting】?

With all due respect, I'm not saying your post seemed to be too Chinese, I'm just generally speaking based on my observation
