Forming a line (quaying) is not part of the Chinese etiquette. Frustrating!!!
From a Wikipedia article about a “South Park” episode where “Tree Fiddy” is used.
“This is a take on constant jokes mostly from black comedians, like Richard Pryor, about unusual people asking for money or food during hard times.)”
That’s not pinyin nor Wade Giles.
Yes, it’s a mishmash. I learned Bau Pau Mau in Taiwan, if you know what that is. It is an exact phonetic, more precise than either Wade Giles or Pinyin. There was another system created by the great Lin Yutang but never caught on. It had to do with doubling vowels according to tone. What is your knowledge of Chinese?
Yes, the Chinese tourists are extremely rude. Its generally the in those countries too, but I find the horrible attitudes really come with tourists. I had a great time last working and living in China, Singapore, Hong Kong, but the Chinese tourists that come to Japan take the prize for being rude mouth breathing, dirty, disrespectful arseholes. I have always wondered why all Chinese tourist always walk somewhat slumped over with their jaws hanging loose, and always looking somewhere other than in the direction they are walking.
She is dynamite, LOL
My aunt used to live in San Fran. I asked how she knew the difference between Chinese and Japanese.
She said:
“Easy! The Chinese will kill you to get on a bus or into an elevator ahead of you. The Japanese all have cameras around their necks and are VERY polite.”
Yeah, bopomofo.
I never learned the phonetic symbols.
I know some Chinese is all. Not fluent. I can speak some things well enough to make people think I can speak Chinese, that just gets me responses I can’t understand.
My wife is from Taiwan and I learned from reading and using the character dictionary counting strokes and from many friends I worked with from China and Taiwan.
There is a name for the romanization you used, but the name slips my mind right now.
Not shocking, since only the elite of China get to travel outside of China. They act like the entitled act everywhere.
Re only the elite traveling only partially correct. Over 4 million Chinese tourist visited Thailand last year with projections reaching 5 million tourist for 2015. I looked up the numbers, and statistically 107 million Chinese traveled in 2014 with United States being close to the number one destination.
When they get on our planes, some crewmembers refer to them as “ farmers” because of the way they dress, behave and talk.
For many years I always believed the American tourist were the loudest and of course most arrogant. But undoubtedly the South Koreans and now Chinese folks making a run for that title.
