Zhi Hu Zhe Ye

Zhi Hu Zhe Ye (Chinese: 之乎者也; pinyin: Zhī hū zhě yě) is the 1982 debut album of Taiwanese singer Lo Ta-yu. The title of the album consists of a meaningless phrase made solely of four grammatical Chinese particles from Classical Chinese. The phrase functions as an adjective; if someone's Chinese is "Zhi hu zhe ye", it means it is stale and archaic. Internationally, the album was released in 1982 as Selective Works of Lo Ta-yu (羅大佑作品選) by Fontana Records with two additional tracks, "Foolishly Waiting" (痴痴的等) and "Deaf-Blind" (盲聾).
