How do you pronounce AMERICA? THe "ME" in AMERICA sounds like MEI. DUH!!!! It's phonetic based. Just like Fa-guo, De-Guo etc., all phonetic.
BTW, I challenge you to find ONE racist comment that I've made on my blog. You can't do it!
Criticizing someone's behavior, mannerisms or other social characteristics is not racism.
No.
Meiguo is phonetic, yes. But choosing which character that is pronounced mei was not random.
Faguo as well. Fa was chosen because of the law aspect.
