xuezhongwen Posted November 12, 2004 at 05:13 PM Report Share Posted November 12, 2004 at 05:13 PM A lot of these are JUNK, IMHO. rooted from poor translation, some were from the 'abuse' of Chinese in Japanese and other languages. YES, they are used a lot in bbs, and maybe eventually will stay in the language. Again, that's IMHO... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seagate Posted November 28, 2004 at 02:01 AM Report Share Posted November 28, 2004 at 02:01 AM This reminds me of a joke about the abuse of English cyber language in real life. In Chinese forums, people use 'nod' to show his agreement with somebody. Once a Chinese student went to the American Embassy to apply for the visa. The visa officer had a dialogue with him: VO: 'so you are going to xx University'? student: 'nod'. VO: 'you got a fellowship'? student: 'nod'. VO: '......'? student: 'nod'. ...... ...... don't know if this guy got the visa finally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
