What is the translation of the word "strange or not"?

Translation: He will seriously refuse, and sometimes he won't give a word.

I. Original text

Dongpo lay man is very willing to write, but he can't ask. Beggars for books should be severely reprimanded, otherwise they will not agree at all. In the lock test in Yuan You, I saw every time that the paper on the box was neither thin nor thick, and it was full of books. Sex wine, but you can't get drunk for four or five years. If you don't refuse politely, you will snore like thunder as soon as you lie down. When you wake up, you write like a storm, although the ridicule is meaningful. People in real immortals, how can this be compared with people in calligraphy in this world?

Second, translation.

Su Dongpo is not stingy with calligraphy at ordinary times, but he cannot be asked to write. He will seriously refuse anything he is asked to write, sometimes without giving a word. During the reign of Yuan You, he worked in the Ministry of Rites. Every time he comes to see a piece of paper on the desk, he will write on it, regardless of the quality, and stop when he finishes writing.

He is naturally good at drinking, but he will get drunk after four or five drinks. No matter what venue, he fell asleep and snored like thunder. When I woke up soon, my handwriting was as chic as wind and rain. Even if I'm joking, it makes sense. It's like one of the immortals! Where can contemporary calligraphers compare with him?

Third, the source

Song, Huang Tingjian, later Dongpo.

Make an appreciative comment

Dongpo, written by Huang Tingjian, is neither an ordinary person nor an ordinary person. It is unreasonable for Su to say that he is "extraordinary": he "does not hesitate to ask for books, but can't beg" and even "seriously scolds" book beggars; He is said to be an "ordinary person" precisely because he is not as sour and polite as an old scholar or official: he writes "paper is not thin but thick", gets drunk when he drinks it, lies down when he wakes up and writes "like rain".

This is not only the situation of ordinary people and extraordinary people, but also Dongpo's naivety and loveliness, which makes Dongpo's calligraphy reach the "divine quality" of "today's calligraphers can't compete".
