  Huógāi

  活该!

  It serves somebody right.

  

  Note:

  We use this phrase to mean something (misfortune) deserved by somebody.

  Example:

  A: Nǐ tīngshuō Màikè shèxián jīngjì zhàpiàn le ma? Ta kěndìng huì bèi guān jìn jiānyù.

  你听说麦克涉嫌经济诈骗了吗?他肯定会被关进监狱。

  Did you hear that Mike was involved in a financial fraud investigation? He will surely be put in jail.

  B: Huógāi! Tā zhōngjiū huì yǒu zhème yìtiān.

  活该!他终究会有这么一天。

  It serves him right. He will have to face it one day.

  (Alex Sun)
