edelweis Posted April 8, 2010 at 07:29 PM Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 at 07:29 PM This is a sample sentence from jukuu: 她的成绩是B+。 How do you read the grade? "bee plus" as in english or is there a chinese word for "+" (and "-")? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B- = B 減 / B 减 [if translated directly from English] or 乙減 / 乙减 [in Chinese] from 甲乙丙丁[from the first 4 heavenly stems, used to grade papers according to A,B,C or D in English respectively. ] or even 乙- if a combination is used. + = 加, jia = add; plus - = 減 / 减, jian = subtract ; reduce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
