跌親起身
If you fall over, get back up again!

Lit. fall bad-thing, stand back up body.

As the translation suggests, this is actually a conditional sentence, even though it might not seem like it. More explicitly we could say 如果跌親嘅話起身
This sentence is in Cantonese, not Mandarin/Standard written Chinese.

  Level: 2
跌親就企返起身啦!
