Loner, do you happen to know why both Chinese and Japanese use exactly the same first Kanji for the word "English"? What does the first Kanji mean anyway?

On it's own in Japanese it means 'excellent' or 'superior'. That being said, I will now wish Yuri a happy birthday using said 'excellent' and 'superior' language. Just like God intended.

Happy Birthday Yuri! :hapbirth:

Loner, do you happen to know why both Chinese and Japanese use exactly the same first Kanji for the word "English"? What does the first Kanji mean anyway?

The Chinese and Japanese actually use the same kanji for the whole word "English," except the Chinese version is more simplified. Although it's interesting that the Japanese never adopted the Chinese version of France and Germany, but did for England, Korea, and China.

The first kanji means what 2-20 said, but it was also selected for its phonetic value: in Mandarin, it's pronounced "ying."

And Loner, why yinghua as opposed to yingwen?

Omgz! Happy Birthday Great Teacher Yurizuka!!

[loner]

"Yingyu", which is what most people I know normally call English O_o

And yeah, the Japan adopted the Kanji from us. And yes, the first word was chosen for its phonetic value. They did find a character that is pronounced "ying" with a more dignified meaning.

[Yurika Star]

ARAWR!

Cheers lovelies'.

I didn't go out on Saturday, my birthday, but went out on Sunday instead. The woes of working in a private English school, I teach saturday and sunday but get the rest of the week more or less free.

Thanks for the messages, it's really nice to still have people remember me through my recent inactivity, especialy when I've been here almost 5 years.

And yea, yingyu is what everyone calls English language D:~ You crazy Chinese mother ****ers.

I'm now learning Chinese and Japanese ^^ It's hard ~.~

P.s. Got a computer for my birthday, so I'm like online now, if anyone wants to chat.

[Minnie]

:O Bitch! You didn't even tell me it was your B-day in MSN? I hate you and I hope you had a fairly pleasant birthday.

[Yurika Star]
