Hofmann 682 Report post Posted March 2, 2010 mạch exists. See mạch in Wiktionary. It means "pulse".... In the list of Chinese surnames it's under 麥. 脈 means "pulse." That's a given name? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gnitia 10 Report post Posted March 2, 2010 Tuan NguyenThi Bich Nguyen For "Tuan" if you could provide the meaning of it perhaps? As for "Thi Bich Nguyen" if "Thi" means "poem" then it is 诗。shi(1) If "Bich" means "jade" then it is 玉. yu(4) As for "Nguyen" it is 阮ruan(2) Hope it is correct!

gnitia 10 Report post Posted March 2, 2010 Oh wait.... If "Bich" means "jade" then it is 玉. yu(4) It should be "碧" Bi(4) Both means "jade" in Chinese Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JAAHAS 10 Report post Posted March 8, 2010 Could somebody help me translate my vietnamese name in to chinese (pinyin and character)? My name is Tiêu Chấn Bình. Tiêu: means some kind of flute. Chấn: I'm not sure what's the meaning of this word. Bình: means perhaps peace (Bình an) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trien27 27 Report post Posted March 9, 2010 (edited) Tiêu =簫 is the original character meaning flute, with the bamboo radical. Nowadays as a last name, it's changed from bamboo radical to grass radical to 蕭. = xiāo in Pinyin Chấn = not sure. http://vdict.com/?autotranslation gives the Chinese character as 陳, which as a last name would be Tran in Vietnamese. = chén in Pinyin. 陳 means "old". I'm thinking it's mostly 振* from knowledge of Chinese names. Check ** below for the meaning of 振. Bình = 平 = píng in Pinyin *Source: http://vi.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=%C4%90%E1%BA%B7c_bi%E1%BB%87t%3AT%C3%ACm_ki%E1%BA%BFm&search=Ch%E1%BA%A5n&go=Xem **http://www.nciku.com/search/zh/detail/%E6%8C%AF/1319419 Edited March 9, 2010 by trien27 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Llala 10 Report post Posted March 10, 2010 Hi, I was hoping if anyone could help me with this: A Chinese to Vietnamese name translated as Denh. Is this the same name as Ying?? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trien27 27 Report post Posted March 12, 2010 (edited) "Đěnh with a dash on the D" = 櫻, 英, etc... Note: 櫻, 英 could also be Anh. 櫻, 英 = "Yīng" in Chinese Pinyin. 櫻: Đěnh seem to be the origin Vietnamese name, whereas Anh is Sino-Vietnamese?! Vdict.com is unreliable for this character: It translates 櫻 from Chinese to Vietnamese as "Sakura". Sakura = Japanese, not Vietnamese. PS Đěnh might also = those same characters as Anh. Đěnh = 丁* *http://nomfoundation.org/index.php?IDcat=42&cat=7&subcat=2 Edited March 12, 2010 by trien27 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hofmann 682 Report post Posted March 12, 2010 It translates 櫻 from Chinese to Vietnamese as "Sakura" I see 1. anh (xem: anh đào 櫻桃,樱桃) Số nét: 21. Loại: Phồn thể. Bộ: 木 (mộc) ...but of course anh is Sino-Vietnamese. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trien27 27 Report post Posted March 22, 2010 Anh* has been posted before, please see previous posts... but depending on the accent mark on the A, it could be 光 [light], etc... Lu'u** = most of the Chinese words which is "lau" in Cantonese or "liu" in Mandarin pronunciations. *Source: http://vi.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=%C4%90%E1%BA%B7c+bi%E1%BB%87t%3AT%C3%ACm+ki%E1%BA%BFm&redirs=0&search=anh&fulltext=Search&ns0=1 **Source: http://vi.wiktionary.org/wiki/%C4%90%E1%BA%B7c_bi%E1%BB%87t:T%C3%ACm_ki%E1%BA%BFm/Luu PS @namtheo: you have posted the same thing in two separate postings.

aulienated 10 Report post Posted April 10, 2010 Hi, I'm not sure if I'm in the right thread, but if I do make a mistake, then please forgive me. I'm wondering if anybody can help translate my Chinese name to Vietnamese. My Chinese name is 文奥理 (Wen2 Ao4 Li3). Rough translations of the words 文 (Wen2) = Culture, literature. I think it's Van in Vietnamese 奥 (Ao4) = profound, mysterious. I need help finding the Vietnamese equivalent. 理 (Li3) = reason, logic. I think it's Lu in Vietnamese. Would really appreciate if someone can help me translate my name to Vietnamese, if possible with the tonal signs Thanks! Aulia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
