View Full Version : Ni Hao, MeiGuo
Hello everyone,
China is cool. Very very cool. And it's not as socialist as one might think.
Saw a PLAAF bomber today- a Tupolev from the 50s! Ha!
Good times here and I'm thankful this site isn't blocked.

Good deal! Are you getting any pics?
Not yet, I have to get a digi first, though I might be able to borrow one for a few hours to chuck some pictures up.
It sounds like a warzone at times. I woke up this morning thinking someone was opening up somewhere with an AK, but alas it was just Spring Festival. You ain't seen fireworks until you've seen Chinese fireworks!
Stay safe Huey, and enjoy!

glad to know you have a blast...
Now, for Chin101:
one gold bond powder (pick-up only) for those who know the thread title translation. No googlin/on line translation. Either you know it or come up with best guess :D

I don't know Chinese (and I'm not going to Google it, as per the rules), but my guess is that it would be some kind of proper Chinese greeting ?
(Google-flex :lifter )
Ni(You) Hao(Good) MeiGuo(America) = You good, America?
How are you? I'd like to visit SE Asia after college, very interesting cultures.
Close. It's "Hello". Ni hao ma is "how are you?" Meiguo is indeed America. :) It literally translated means Beautiful Country.
Cheers, Gypsy!
Hehe! Almost, glad to see you're enjoying yourself. Is this a vacation or a move?

Hey Huey14 !
You arrived there safely - terrific !
Let us know how you are doing and, as Kyo said, send pics!
Xie'xie (phonetically "shayshay" - is that correct ? I think I can also count to 10, if that helps :D :lifter )
