Hi
I'm just wondering is全盤推翻 a phrase to mean ' overthrow'?
聲稱現狀為頹唐腐敗，要全盤推翻，為未來開創新局面
Thank you
search 全盤推翻 - no result
search 全盤- no result
search 全- find "complete; whole...
search 盤 - find " course; plate"
search 推翻 - find "overthrow"
全盤推翻= "complete/whole + course/plate + overthrow"
now you see there's a verb in the phrase, and you can reform the sentence grammatically -- " overthrow the whole course"
