There is nothing wrong with __________. ?

[call_me_scar]

Having a period at the end of a text but we shall treat it as such

[xichuwangwai]

There is nothing wrong with not knowing how to fill in the blank.

[Solitude_asian]

Lol. Hao de.

[xichuwangwai]

hao de bi huai de hao

[Solitude_asian]

Hahaha, shuo de ye shi. Ni zhen you mo, 喜出望外。

[Solitude_asian]

Wow, I should copy you and use 成语 for usernames next time.

[xichuwangwai]

Thank you for the compliment.
There are like thousands of them, you'd have a lot of options.

[Solitude_asian]

Yeah, imitation is the greatest compliment. Yeah, thousands of them. And this is the first time I see people use a Chinese idiom as username on an English site. But why you pick Xichuwangwai? Are you always happy?

[xichuwangwai]

I think there's a little bit misunderstanding here. You said "Ni zhen you mo", and then I said "Thank you for the compliment", it had nothing to do with "imitation".
On the websites over here, all of them were taken, like, xichuwangwai was taken (not by me), xichuwangwai123 and xichuwangwai321 were taken (again, not by me) too.
I don't really remember why I chose this username, probably because I wanted to be surprised, in a good way, well, that's the definition of xichuwangwai. Always happy? Well that's... Actually, right now, I'm trying to remember what being happy feels like... And I failed.

[Solitude_asian]

Imitation means I want to imitate your style of using Chinese idioms as usernames in future. By imitating you, I am indirectly complimenting you. Isn't it?😊

[Solitude_asian]

If people are on this site, chances are that they aren't happy. Anyway, great to see a Chinese user like you on here, cos it's rare 😊

[Solitude_asian]

喜出望外：遇上出乎意料的好事而感到特别高兴。

愿您我每天都能喜出望外。

[xichuwangwai]

I'm not Chinese, I'm from my country.

[Solitude_asian]

Wow, then it's cool that you know the language.

[Solitude_asian]

I am a Chinese born in Singapore. Chinese doesn't mean must be born in China. Where did you learn Chinese from?

[xichuwangwai]

I've never been to Singapore.
I'm thinking, maybe you want to take a look at my profile. "PROFILE SUMMARY", click "SHOW MORE".

[Solitude_asian]

Hmmm, you are from 沈阳？你是中国人吗？I am so confused. Lol.

[xichuwangwai]

Ok, how do I put this...
The border-lines in the map are evil. They're lines of hundreds and thousands years of wars; they're lines of hate; they're lines of the greedy human nature; they're lines of... Ok, I guess you already know what I mean.
So, I'm from my own country, and my country is not on any maps.

[Solitude_asian]

@Let me see, uh, the King, the Cook, the Barber, the Writer, the... well, one. There ARE one people in my country

Haha, nice, I can see your sense of humour here.

[xichuwangwai]

I'm glad now we both know where I'm from.
You speak Mandarin? Or Cantonese? Or others?

[Solitude_asian]

I speak Mandarin, English and Hokkien. What about you?

[xichuwangwai]

Mandarin, English and... you win.

[Solitude_asian]

. . . and body language.

You also can type in Chinese han zi too, don't you?

[xichuwangwai]

You miss them?

[Solitude_asian]

No, just asking, just curious to see you type in Chinese. Don't be stingy. Lol.

[xichuwangwai]

变化太突然了，我都有点儿糊涂了，汉语怎么说来着？

[Solitude_asian]

什么变化，哪里有？O_o

[xichuwangwai]

有啊，语言的突然变化

[Solitude_asian]

I just want to see you type in Chinese. Just for fun. And thank you 😊

[Solitude_asian]

Maybe next time can have a Chinese version of GAG.

[xichuwangwai]

又变了？坏啦，英语怎么说来着？

[Solitude_asian]

哈哈，那就随便你变来变去咯 。混合用吧！

[xichuwangwai]

That sounds like a really good idea.

[Solitude_asian]

Yeah, cos it is hard to translate a lot of Chinese phrases into English, like 失去了原汁原味。
Example: how do you say " 退步"in English?
Is it regress/regression?

[xichuwangwai]

原汁原味, you're totally right.
退步? I have no idea how to say that word in English, I've never even thought about that word, I guess, 我从来不退步?

[Solitude_asian]

I asked many people in my country and they said 退步= deprove (opposite of improve)
But we know there is no such word as "deprove".

Chinese is always the most beautiful and poetic language.

[xichuwangwai]

Maybe: degenerate? decline? Native English speakers know, but too bad they don't know 退化.
I guess you can find many languages beautiful and poetic when you know them deeply.

[Solitude_asian]

But in translating "他的功夫退步了“, we
cannot say "His Kungfu degenerated/declined" , right? Hehe.

I don't know , the subtitles of a local Chinese movie translated it as "regressed".

[xichuwangwai]

You can ask a question like "What's the antonym of the word improve?" on here, and I promise I won't reply.

[Solitude_asian]

I actually wanted to yesterday but forgot. Lol.

[I-am-a-nobody]

Arranged marriages... sorry just answered a question on this.

There's also nothing wrong with you responding to my PM questions/answers.

[Solitude_asian]

Lol.

[Solitude_asian]

Maybe next time can have a Chinese version of GAG.

[Solitude_asian]

Sorry, please ignore the last message. I typed in the wrong box.
