Tips

usage
Not a dictionary headword. 夏过 is a productive phrase fragment ( 'summer' + 'pass/elapse') that routinely begins set expressions like 夏过秋来 and seasonal farming/aquaculture sentences - which is almost certainly why it surfaces in the news corpus as a 'word.' Treat as a phrase, not a lexeme.
