FM, it shouldn't be difficult but, if you don't mind my telling you, your text is not
exempt of errors as to be translated properly.

If "plants die, sometimes it's your fault, sometimes it's not", is what you mean, then you could write, in simplified Chinese:

植物死了,有时候是你的过错,有时这不是

thank you Francis. Im always amazed at accomplishments of our members. I worked in China for several years (months at a time) and I only was mediocre in my language skills. I NEVER learned to write the Script using the brushwork although I always was asking staffers to prepare calligraphy banners for tercolors that I did for friends and clients.
