New Members Suze Posted October 16, 2010 at 03:53 PM New Members Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 at 03:53 PM Would you suggest just getting the character "hai" to mean ocean, or the entire word "haiyang" Thanks, Suze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zhxlier Posted October 20, 2010 at 06:02 PM Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 at 06:02 PM I like hai more. Haiyang is more used to refer to the scientific ocean, like you are going to discuss oceanology. Hai is the literary "sea/ocean". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushroom Posted November 3, 2010 at 06:57 AM Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 at 06:57 AM Just a character/word? or in a sentence? if just a character/word, i prefer to say "海洋" or "大海", because if I see a Western who has just only a character tattoo "海", maybe i think it is a typo of "嗨" (口 + 海), it means "Hello!" if in a sentence, please give me a intact sentence.
