Nov 27, 2019 at 10:48 comment added Tang Ho I think 秋后 means "after fall arrived". not "after fall end e.g". 秋後斬 (Execution after fall arrived),秋後算帳 , 秋後扇. after fall end is called 冬至 (winter comes)
Nov 27, 2019 at 10:42 comment added dan @TangHo 入 can't be omitted in 由于入秋后 because it will change the meaning. 由于入秋后 means after entering the fall, while 由于秋后 means either at the end of fall or after the fall.
Nov 27, 2019 at 10:08 comment added Pedroski my typo, was correct 入 in my book
Nov 27, 2019 at 10:02 comment added dan I think 延迟花期 here means: prolong florescence.
Nov 27, 2019 at 10:02 comment added tsh Let us continue this discussion in chat.
Nov 27, 2019 at 10:02 comment added Tang Ho "入" in "由于入秋后" can be omitted
Nov 27, 2019 at 10:01 comment added tsh And... "如" in "由于如秋后" is a typo. But it should be ""由于入秋后"
Nov 27, 2019 at 9:57 comment added Tang Ho the way to delay the start of flowing selling period until spring festival is not to sell them before it is time. using electric lighting is for prolonging the selling time every day
Nov 27, 2019 at 9:51 comment added Tang Ho @ tsh "由于如秋后,广州的日照时间缩短" means the daylight time is shortened, The lighting is there to make up for the lost daylight, It is hard to do business when it is dark. So "prolong the selling time" make sense but "delay the selling time" doesn't
Nov 27, 2019 at 8:54 comment added Tang Ho "如" in "由于如秋后" is a typo. It should be ""由于秋后"
Nov 27, 2019 at 8:52 comment added Tang Ho 延迟花期(delay the flowers selling period) is wrong. It should be "延长(prolong)花期"
