Demonic_Duck Posted October 11, 2013 at 02:02 PM Report Posted October 11, 2013 at 02:02 PM Is that one official? Seems to me Pleco doesn't market their software to a Chinese audience, so why would it have an official Chinese name? Quote
roddy Posted October 11, 2013 at 02:33 PM Report Posted October 11, 2013 at 02:33 PM 华为 Huawei. Pretty big electronic company. Can I ask why we're doing this? If we're just going to list every Chinese company in existence then... well, why? Quote
pprendeville Posted October 11, 2013 at 03:50 PM Author Report Posted October 11, 2013 at 03:50 PM Sorry, you can delete thread if you like. I guess for me it's a good active way of helping me remember characters. If it's clogging up the system just let me know, I won't post anymore. Quote
roddy Posted October 11, 2013 at 04:08 PM Report Posted October 11, 2013 at 04:08 PM I'd query the efficiency of this, but if you're finding it useful, fair enough... Quote
Demonic_Duck Posted October 11, 2013 at 05:27 PM Report Posted October 11, 2013 at 05:27 PM I thought it was more of a "let's post random brand names' Chinese translations for fun and marvel at how clever/fitting/awkward/amusing (delete as appropriate) they are" kinda thread, rather than a serious study aid. But yeah, posting things like 联想 and 华为, which are already Chinese brands, doesn't seem to add much IMO. Anyway, here are some car-themed ones, see if you can guess 'em: 奔驰 大众 奥迪 现代 法拉利 别克 Quote
