"Snakes" in Chinese........

[Izanami]

Hello everyone,

I was wondering what "Snake" translated to in Chinese.

So i got a hold of a translator and this is what it gave me:

snake [sneik] 名 蛇;蛇一般的人;阴险[狡猾]的人

近义词： serpent; viper

snake-charming n. 玩蛇术

But i'm looking for "readable" chinese. Like a romaji equavilant in Chinese. If i remember right, i believe it's called pinyin?

Could anyone help?? Thanks!

Also, the translation for "goddess"(goddess ['g/o/ dis] 名 女神;绝代美女;受崇拜女性

)and "beauty"

(beauty ['bju:ti] 名 美;美人;优点

反义词： ugliness

beauty spot 风景胜地)

would be great!!

Thanks again!

xoxo

I converted this with HanConv, a useful little program. Unfortunately, their website seems to be down.

Hey, thanks!

But i was wondering which of those i sould use?

Like which one is more colloquial? =)

oh, and i found that snake charmer is:耍蛇者

and the translation i got at this other site was:

Your PinYin Translation:

耍shua [蛇she;yi] 者zhe

So, how would i write "Snake Charmer" out? Shua She Zhe, Shua Yi Zhe, OR ,Shu She Yi Zhe??

OR is it Shua-Xi-She??!

[Ding Yiyi]

[pop=person juggling snake/shuǎ shé zhě]耍蛇者[/pop] would be written as shuǎshézhě, or shua3she2zhe3. The accent marks are more fluid to read, but the numbers are easier to type so you'll see both.

depending on what your purposes are:

Snake, as the animal: she 蛇

Goddess: nu (with an umlaut over the u) shen女神

A Beauty (as in a beautiful person): meiren 美人

beautiful (adj): mei or meili 美 or 美麗
