How to Learn any language

Dirty Chinese

Hover over any underlined Chinese character to see the pinyin tooltip(note: if you are reading this in an RSS reader, you probably won't be able to see the pinyin tooltips, in which case you should click on the link to the original post.)

(WARNING: Explicit language below. Do not read on or click the link if you are easily offended)

John from ChinesePod just posted a link to a site entitled "Chinese sex words, obscene language, curses and slang"

This stuff is definitely beyond any textbook I've ever seen. One has to wonder how the author learned all this language!!

There's some nice imagery in some of the words:

肉棒 ròubàng = meat stick
肉洞 ròudòng = meat dungeon
蜜穴 mìxué = honey hole
玉门 yùmen = jade door
乳球 rŭqiú = “milk balls”

I'm sure (and I hope) that most of these words will be unfamiliar to learners of Chinese. Don't know if you'll get a chance to use any of them, but it could make a fun conversation between close friends.


I'm not really learning much new Chinese these days, so this blog is pretty much on the back-burner now, but I will continue to post links to interesting Chinese material as and when I come across it.

haha, where did you find this stuff. In fact, people don't use them in oral Chinese, they are used in books,but may be some porn novels, i think.

Really, zheng is right. We seldom use the stuff in oral Chinese.
