I believe this is how you would write it in Chinese:\n\n请给我你的姓名和地址。\n\n[Thanks to "mike i" for pointing out my error - I got it right, but then had trouble with my Chinese IME and had to retype the whole **** thing, and somehow didn't catch the change... There, it's all OK now, I changed it back to what it should be!]\n\nOr if you are unable to get Chinese characters to display properly, you can try pinyin (phonetic transcription):\n\nQing3 gei3 wo3 ni3 de xing4 ming2 he2 di4 zhi3. (The numbers indicate the tones with which the syllables are pronounced).\n\nWhich literally means 'Please give me your name and address.' I don't know how elegant it is, but it ought to get the point across.\n\nGood luck!

I assume you want to write your name in chinese. A rough translation is 纳特. Note that there is no special meaning of this translation in chinese. It is pronounced as Na (as in banaNA) and Te (winTEr).

The pound was originally the value of one pound (weight) of sterling silver (hence "pound sterling"). The sign for the pound is the pound sign, £ (or rarely just "L"). The pound sign is derived from the original black-letter "L", as the original duodecimal currency system (pounds, shillings and pence) used the abbreviation 'LSD' (librae, solidi, denarii), libra being the Latin word for "pound". The ISO 4217 currency code is GBP (Great Britain Pound). \n\nSo actually both L and P are used.  £ is used most everywhere, but banks and other financial institutions use the GBP abbreviation (saving having to use special characters).\n\nAnd regarding the question of the symbol for U.S. Dollars ($) the sign is attested in business correspondence between British North America and Mexico in the 1770s as referring to the Spanish-Mexican piastre. The piastre was known as "Spanish dollar" in British North America, and in 1785, it was adopted as U.S. currency, together with both the term "dollar" and the $ sign.\n\nThe sign's ultimate origins are not certain. The most widely accepted explanation, according to the U.S. Bureau of Engraving and Printing, is that "$" is a corruption of the letters "PS" or "Ps" (for 'peso' or 'piastre' - especially the former, as each letter could represent each syllable of "Pé-So") written over each other in Spanish. Eventually, the 'P' was reduced to a vertical line.\n\nThe ISO currency code for U.S. Dollars is USD (again to avoid special characters).

The Chinese letters and the English don't match up.  People who don't read Chinese are reading the English below and guessing the above.\n\nThe Chinese reads: "Mao2 Zhu3 Xi2 Wan4 Sui4"\nLiteral Translation: Mao Main Secretary 10,000 Years (of Age).\n\nMeaning: 'Long Live Chairman Mao'\n\n"Wan4 Sui4", or 'Banzai' in Japanese, is what people normally said to the emperors for respect, similar to 'Viva' in Spanish and 'Long Live the King' in English.\n\nThe English below says what it says, it's supposed to be ironic.  Um, I think you'll be ok wearing this shirt in China.  Most people will read the Chinese there and think you're an uber-revolutionary cultist, whereas the educated who can read English probably are open-minded enough not to care for the English below.

"Noone really knows what it means or where it originated from. Some believe it's a sanskrit word meaning black or dark gold. Some say it's from the word "Cham," either Cham in Burma or Vietnam area."\n\n"The Vietnamese, the Assam, Lawa, and Mon people, the various people of modern day Myanmar and the various chinese groups of South China area -- all called the Thai by the similar sounding names of sam, siam, syam, seem, same, san, tsim, siang, syeem, seyae (Jit Poomisak, Kwam Pen Ma Kong Kum Siam)."

There's actually an answer to this question, the problem is, it doesn't translate into English. The answer is "Mu" (in Japanese,  Wú orMou in Chinese). It's used as a response to certain koans and other questions in Zen Buddhism, intending to indicate that the question itself was wrong.

The fall of Yuan ( The Mongal imperial dynasty )\n\n   In the 1350's, the pace of rebellion picked up. Several rebel leaders, almost all of whom came from the merchant or lower classes, seized cities and set themselves up as kings or even, with just a small bit of territory, proclaimed themselves Emperor. China was no longer in the control of the Emperor—it had been carved up among the rebel warlords. \n\n   One of these warlords was called Kuo Tzu-hsing; he controlled the territory of Anhui. However, it isn't Kuo Tzu-hsing that interests us; it is, rather, the general he appointed in 1355, Chu Yüan-chang, who would become the founder of the Ming dynasty. Chu was a peasant; along with Liu Bang (ruled 206-195 BC), he was the only peasant to found a Chinese dynasty. When Kuo Tzu-hsing died, Chu set about his real ambition: conquering the whole of China. It is said that a scholar told him he would succeed if he followed three rules: a.) build strong city walls; b.) gather as much grain in storage as possible; c.) be slow to assume titles. Chu followed these rules assiduously. \n\n   With his army, Chu slowly conquered one warlord's territory after another while carefully watching the government's army. By 1368, he had conquered all of southern China; this is the date at which the Ming dynasty officially begins. By 1369 he had driven the Mongols out of China. Except for Szechwan in the east (which was conquered in 1371) and Yünnan in the southeast (conquered in 1382), Chu controlled all of China in 1369.

It means, "Always Faithful."\nP.S.- It is not Spanish, it is Latin. And Montezuma (or however you spell it) was a name of the Aztec leaders when the Spanish conquered them. It is the name of a person, not a battle.

to a large extent the sea is reflecting the color of the sky...when the sky is blue, the sea looks blue, when the sky is gray, the sea looks gray. This interrelationship is captured in the Chinese concept of "qing," which means the color of the sea and the sky and covers a wide spectrum of what we think of as distinct colors in English: blue, gray, green, blue-green, etc. Qing is often inadequately translated into English as "celadon."

1. Try "Meilee" or "Meilie" or "Meily" - "Mei" means beautiful, pretty. "Lee" has several cooresponding characters in Chinese, depends on which one you pick, it can mean "gift" , "inside", "beauty", "pear"..... I can send you the writing/calligraphy once you make the decision.\n2. Or "Tienlee" - "Tien" means from God/someone above & "Lee" is the same as #1.

Usually POUND (when it refers to weight) is abbreviated "lb.", although I have sometimes seen "lbs." The Latin word for pound is LIBRA, and that word was once used in English when referring to money. Apparently our word "pound" comes from the Latin word "pondo" which means weight; the Latin expression seems to have been "libra pondo" for "a pound in weight" (as opposed to a pound in money). The Italian monetary unit, the lira, as well as the British pound were coins that were once equivalent to a pound of a precious metal. Both are abbreviated with a fancy capital L (not followed by a period). The story of the terminology can be found in the OXFORD ENGLISH DICTIONARY, and also (under pound, libra and in the appendix) in the AMERICAN HERITAGE DICTIONARY.
