Goldfinger Posted December 1, 2014 at 09:37 AM Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 at 09:37 AM Good Morning, Many years ago I purchased this button at a 4th of July Festival. I have always wondered what the writing on it says. Can someone translate it for me? If you place your mouse over the picture, you can see it much better. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tiananmen-Square-Button-/321603120479?ssPageName=ADME:L:LCA:US:1123 Thanks!!!

anonymoose Posted December 1, 2014 at 09:55 AM Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 at 09:55 AM Hi Steven, It says 斯迪纹 which presumably is just a transliteration of your name. The characters don't literally mean anything in that combination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldfinger Posted December 1, 2014 at 12:12 PM Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 at 12:12 PM Thanks Guys!!!!Chinese must be a very difficult language to learn from what I've read. I admire anyone trying to take on another language. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
