Lu Posted July 30, 2017 at 08:33 AM Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 at 08:33 AM 拉 lā, to pull. Also used in transliterations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imron Posted July 31, 2017 at 07:56 AM Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 at 07:56 AM P.S. you should find a better way to block out text in an image. What you have there is very readable - "this note will self-destruct.... blah blah blah" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Members DaLongHotpot Posted November 10, 2017 at 07:24 AM New Members Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 at 07:24 AM I think you should put the 拉 in a sentence. Just like the 'pull', 拉 have many means in Chinese. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwr71 Posted November 10, 2017 at 03:49 PM Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 at 03:49 PM It can be used with other words to form a compond word for ex. 拉链儿(simplified) or 拉鏈兒 (traditional) = zip fastener; zipper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imron Posted November 10, 2017 at 04:04 PM Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 at 04:04 PM Guys, it's a months old post that the OP hasn't bothered responding to. I think it's safe to say effort expended on this discussion will not be particularly worthwhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somethingfunny Posted November 10, 2017 at 04:08 PM Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 at 04:08 PM Yeah, but how would you use 拉 in a sentence? I'd probably go for 拉倒吧 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
889 Posted November 10, 2017 at 04:31 PM Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 at 04:31 PM I remember once being reminded to be careful using 拉客: it's not something doctors, lawyers and other professionals do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
