So, I'm new, not that it matters...

But can someone Translate my name into any dialect you speak minus mandarin...obviously...

My name is: 邱迪和

Thanks :mrgreen:

If it's the sound you're looking for, 邱迪和 would be Yau Dik Wo in Cantonese (Jyutping romanisation: jau1 dik6 wo4).

In 上海话 anyone?

Are these translation in Romanization of that dialect or Pinyin?

Sorry The romanization gets confusing :-?

They are romanisations of those dialects. You can't sensibly use pinyin to transcribe the different sounds present in those dialects.

It would sound something like Chieu Dih Ghu

Spelling 上海话 is impossible, if you've heard it spoken you'll know what I mean. The only way to find out is to ask a Shanghainese to read it out for you :mrgreen:

Tang (Middle Chinese) is *kiou *dhek *huɑ...not that I speak it. I don't know what kind of romanization system that is.
