Hi MPL

Nice of you to reply. Reminds me of this Chinese quote that says:

人活一口氣,難得拼一回,生死路一條,聚散酒一杯,只是誰與我共同一樽還酹江月啊!

I will let you have the meaning soonest.

Cheers.

Hello MPL ...

Greetings.

The word ‘UPPITY’ from dictionaries has the following definitions. I have also included the Chinese translations for you.

1. Snobbish, uncivilized and disrespectful (the list goes on)
自負的, 沒有教養的, 無禮的

2. Presumptuously arrogant
帶著傲慢的放肆

3. Brandishing immodest boasting that need to be squelched.
厚顏無恥的炫耀及自吹自擂的行為必須連根拔除


Other definitions include:

Rebuff or ignore others as being social inferiors
如同 “狗眼看人低” 的意思

Imitate, admire, or seek association with people regarded as social superiors.
會模仿高尚的人並諂媚的討好巴結

Characterised by offensive boldness; and displaying ostentatiously an insolence or impertinence air of self-satisfied superiority in matters of taste.
懷著大膽冒犯他人的性格, 而自我招搖地顯示出一股自誇自大無禮的行為.

I’ll let you have the synonyms after I have worked out the translations.

Best regards.
