Help in writing Chinese!


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello everybody!

This is Belinda from Sweden, and I really need som help with a question that I have concerning writing in Chinese.

I have a Chinese friend but she is born in Sweden. She asked me to make her a logotype to her mobile/cellular phone, and the text she wanted was "My heart"

"My heart" like my darling, or my loved one.

She was a bit confused when she wrote it in chinese, and she wasn't shore if it was right.

Her writing is like this: 我的心臟

I have been looking in book in the library, but all I can find is horoscope-signs.

Can anybody tell my how to write (my heart) in chinese, please! I would be so glad!

我的心臟 does indeed mean "my heart", but how does this equate to "my darling" or "my loved one"? 心臟 means "heart", as in the thing beating inside your chest.

I think you'd be better off with 我的甜心 which literally means "my sweet heart".

Of course it should be 甜心, how stupid I am. Thanks for the reply!

If you have more suggestions I'm happy to hear it (but I rather se it) :)

Thanks roddy.

As I was enlightned by anonymoose I understand that 心 means the fysical heart, as I was looking for the philosofical meaning as in "love" or "loved one".

:) there is another expession: 我的心肝 or 我的心肝宝贝it means my darling.

I'm a Chinese Girl. I'm sure both 我的心肝and 我的甜心 are correct

心肝宝贝,just like"sweet hearts",it is other appellation for lovers.

sorry,my english is so badly~

Dosn't 肝 means liver ?

How do you mean that 肝 can be tranlasted to "darlig","sweetheart" ?

Curious Belinda!

Thanks tanhql

I got this explained by my frind yesterday, and her parents gave me an education about Chinese language. We sat down and talked for 3 hours, and I get more and more fascinated by Chinese culture.
