The Angry Chinese Blogger posted this nice little translation dictionary on his page. I agree with most. But he did leave a few out. 1) You're a foreigner, you wouldn't understand I'm Chinese and I don't understand either, but I'm not going to admit it 2) Because China has 5000 years of history A) Because I can't think of a better reason right now B) ..... Just because 3) Things are different here I know that it's messed-up, but I'm too stubborn to admit it 4) In China people think..... In China the government tells us to think..... 5) It is a local specialty A) My mother used to cook it, so now I do B) It's all that will grow round here since they started dumping toxic waste up stream. 6) It's a little spicy It's banned by 3 separate UN weapons conventions 7) I think that this restaurant is cleaner than that one A) The food here will give you flaming diarrhoea, the food there will kill you B) The kitchen staff here have rabis, SARS, and enteric fever, but I will gain face with the owner if I bring foreign customers here It's suitable for vegetarians It's made with pork 9) It's suitable for vegans I don't know what "vegan" means, but here is a nice dish containing chicken, pork and beef 10) Do you have a Chinese girlfriend?
