Ví dụ
Was not expecting ripe (chín) walnuts to look so... explode-y. We planted this tree in 2013 for our first crop now ("walnuts and pears  you plant for your heirs"). Walnuts seldom (hiếm khi) ripen back home in the cooler UK, hence Brits invented pickled walnuts, using the immature nuts in June.

The name Walnuts n Pears stems (có nguồn gốc) from a 17th century English proverb, “Walnuts and pears you plant for your heirs.”  This proverb encourages us to be mindful of how we live and be conscious of what we are leaving for future generations.  In other words, it encourages us to live sustainably.

As the saying goes, “Walnuts and pears you plant for your heirs.” The Hong Kong we see today is the result of the exertion (nỗ lực) of past generations who brought forth good fruit for us to try and thrive on. As for the future, much of the onus (nhiệm vụ) will rest with our younger generations who will not just enjoy the good fruit but will work hard for tomorrow’s harvest.
