Welcome!
Hello! On this blog I will try to post my (admittedly not the best) translations of the 大理寺日志/White Cat Legend/Dali Temple Chronicles comic strips. You can find the original comic strips on the author’s Weibo and Lofter or on Bilibili.
Full discosure, I haven’t been studying Chinese for very long, so if anyone ever has any corrections or suggestions, my ask box is open. This project is in great part to help improve my language skills, but I’m hoping that somebody whose knowledge of Chinese is even worse than mine will find those translations helpful. So feel free to message me if you’d like me to make a post on any of the historical details mentioned in the translation or notes!
I think in English the comic strips are known as Dali Temple Chronicles, but I’ll be using the official translation for the donghua, for reasons that I will probably explain in the next post.

New chapters are posted every Sunday. You can also read this translation on Mangadex or on my website!
