What does "baobei" mean? is it the Chinese way of spelling baby?  It is printed on my daughter's toy car.

It means "precious," "jewel." It can be used for baby, but it can be used for other things as well.\n\nYes, it is written in English alphabets but is acutally Chinese in "ping yin"

You're probably looking for a Shi Jie Ri Bao (World Journal) - its in Traditional characters. \n\nYou'll find it most places. \n\nWorst comes to worst - drive to the city and they'll be littered with them.

Sorry this will be a bit long... but if you want to get good answer to questions about the meaning of names you need to know which sources and sites you can trust... so I'll try to point out why certain sites are NOT good sources.\n\nIn general, I do not trust the meanings given in the "baby name" sites.  Some are correct, same are way off!  Too much sloppy work and failture to co-ordinate related forms to rely on them.\n\nOne evidence of unreliability is this -- If you check out the "name-meanings" and "babyname" sites mentioned above and search for the list of names below --ALL of which are derived from the same Germanic name ("Karl"), you will find meanings that have nothing to do with each other!      \n\nCharles, Carl, Karl, Carlos\nCarla, Carlotta, Charlotte, Charlene\nCarol, Caroline \n(there are others, but they are unlikely to appear in English)\n\nEsp. laughable is what happens when you choose one of the FEMININE forms.  Some may properly say "from Charles", but others end up as "melody" (for "Carol" -- but this is NOT the meaning of the NAME!), "feminine",  "beautiful woman", etc. \n\nNow it IS true that since "carol" is a word for a type of song or hymn, people MAY choose the name for that meaning, and say it means that.  No problem there, even if that's not the way the name originally came about...  language is like that!  But in any case the names do NOT mean "feminine" or "beautiful".\n\nAlso, since names, like other words, can change meaning over time, some variation is understandable.  (Thus the negative word "churl" is derived from "Carl", but that does not mean the name Carl has that meaning.)\n\nBut that's not what's going on with the baby books and baby-name sites.  They are often trying to make the names sounds interesting and attractive (telling a girl her name is a feminine form of "man" or "warrior" may not be well received!) But in the process they are often far from correct!\n\nOn the other hand I have found "behindthename.com" to avoid such sloppiness.   They try to present the most reliable info they can.  For a cluster of names, ALL the names will eventually take you to one main entry that explains the derivation and meaning.  In this case all the names listed above end up at the "Charles" article.\n\nSo we discover that there is a bit of uncertainty/debate about whether the name simply means "man" (or in some cultures a particular status of man, such as a "free man") OR is from a Germanic root "heri" for "war", hence meaning "warrior" (the sort of name used quite often in Germanic cultures).\n\nBy the way "farmer" is not very helpful here.   It may be that in some societies the typical work of the "(free)man" was as a farmer, but that does not mean this word itself MEANS "farmer".\n\nWikipedia's article on the name is also quite good, and adds a bit of history and a hint at how the name could be related to status in society (which may make it difficult to fully translate, since our societies do not have that same structure)\n\nSo, check out the details at these two links:\nhttp://www.behindthename.com/php/search.php?nmd=n&terms=charles\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_(name)\n(which includes a nice list of masculine and feminine forms as well as surnames)

One thing to remember is that because we name children with any character or any of the two characters put together, we don't have lists of men's names or women's names. You can say that Chinese people actually "invent" names!\n\nWhen parents name their children, it usually depends on either \n1. fortuneteller's suggestion\n2. what happened or under what condition they are born\n3. what they hope their children to be in the future or\n4. what personality they hope their children to have\n\nI think you can add this fact in your novel if you like. It can be a very good factor of a conflict.\n\nShen Huan is a good name, as Shen (沈) is really a Chinese surname, and there are characters pronounced "huan".\n\nIf Chloe is raised in the UK, I think you can give her a name that implies "China" or "Chinese culture", since many overseas Chinese parents don't want their children to "forget their roots", meaning to lose their own culture (the Chinese culture) and forget their true idendity (that they are Chinese). Names like 思中 (Si Zhong) and 思華 (Si Hua) (both of which mean "thinking about China") are of this kind.

Since Chinese is a picture-nased language, showing children how particular words look like what they mean, may be a fun way to teach. \n\nI bought a book titled 'Fun With Chinese Characters' from a bookshop here in Australia and it certainly took a fun approach to the Chinese written language.  http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1932457003/sr=8-1/qid=1151222903/ref=sr_1_1/102-0294955-0287366?ie=UTF8\nThe cover of the book itself shows you for example, how the Chinese word for 'hand' was created based on the image of the hand.\nI recommend this book, and there are others which take the same approach on Amazon.com.\n\nYou can find many examples of these words versus pictures in this Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_character\nOf course, not every Chinese character is a pictograph - but hopefully by getting students familiar with writing the little radicals that make up the words, it won't seem so hard.\n\nHopefully you'll find some good books to help you and that your students and you yourself have fun!

it means yan qiu in chinese.\n\nA conversion to english might be useful to non chinese.\nYou will have to ask her.\nIt depends on the one of four tones used for each word, and the context in which the words are said. Try a google search, or wikipedia. Plenty names even have roots to former Dynasties.

they don't translate anything. Once you press the key board it's already digital information. The fact that it as a letter sticker on it it's only for your understanding. It could very well have the real digital information sticker (for example 1001010 for the letter "a"), but it would be very unpractical for the common user.

The purpose of writing was not solely to reproduce spoken words. The purpose was to record ideas or a story in a concise way to preserve them or to convey them to other people.\n\nChinese characters are based on pictographs. These pictographs are symbols of things like a roof or a pig. In Chinese, the word for house is based on the old agrarian concept of a home. It is written with the symbol for roof over the symbol for pig.\n\nThe combination of symbols or pictographs maybe based on an idea or a simplified representation of a things appearance. These symbols or pictographs may be combined to form other words or concepts. An idea may be conveyed with the same pictographs but the spoken form or pronunciation may differ.\n\nChina encompasses a large geographic area w/ many topographical barriers with a ethnically and regionally diverse population. This vastness lent itself to regional dialects and pronunciations. Chinese emperors standardized the written language throughout the country in order to unify the regions of their kingdom and foster communication. Since written messages were the primary means of conveying laws or decrees it worked.

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.

Dinosaur is a word that was created after the King James Version of the Bible...There are references to dragons in Job and Isiah and a few other places.  Which should not be that big of a surprise because even in the Chinese calender there is a dragon. Which you can rule as mythology or whatever....but its not random to just throw a dragon in there with a rat, pig, and other common animals.
