jimmyray Posted June 26, 2008 at 04:44 PM Author Report Posted June 26, 2008 at 04:44 PM I am not sure I understand what you mean, can you explain for me? Thank you, Quote
muyongshi Posted June 26, 2008 at 04:51 PM Report Posted June 26, 2008 at 04:51 PM Well it's like here on the forums, you chose to use your name jimmyray (at least I assume it's your name) where as you could have chosen to use i-love-chinese or any number of things. I had a friend that used big dog for his email or another wwwizzkid.... They are the same, some have meaning some don't, but they are not translatable. Any meaning has to be understood through the original language and it may only have meaning to the person using it. Quote
jimmyray Posted June 26, 2008 at 04:54 PM Author Report Posted June 26, 2008 at 04:54 PM Ohh okay I see what you are saying, so I understand for that part but what about the rest of it? Sorry to be such a pain, :-) Quote
