@BeijingBuzzz-China-Travel6 ай бұрын
The term "Loong" is an alternative spelling for "dragon" that is sometimes used, particularly in the context of Chinese culture and mythology. Both "Loong" and "dragon" refer to the mythical creature commonly associated with power, strength, and good fortune in Chinese tradition. The choice of spelling often depends on various factors, including regional differences, transliteration preferences, and personal or cultural reasons. While "dragon" is the more common English spelling, "Loong" reflects a closer phonetic approximation of the Mandarin Chinese pronunciation of the word, which is "long" (龙). This spelling variation is sometimes favored by those who wish to emphasize the cultural authenticity or uniqueness of the term within the context of Chinese culture. Ultimately, whether one uses "Loong" or "dragon" depends on personal preference and context, but both terms refer to the same mythical creature deeply rooted in Chinese folklore and symbolism.@@derekchan3095

To answer Ivana‘s question:YES! those kinds of hairstyle and jewelry were mainly for the upper class in the past.ordinary people could only be dressed-up like this once or twice for big ceremony or something. And the hairpins were called 步摇 in chinese,which is literally translated as “walk shake”,They were supposed to limit the movements of the ladies and princesses who were meant to be quite and elegant.

bro i really appreciate how well you took random people taking pictures of you on the street. once i watched a vlogger who takes his camera doing what you are doing exactly in china but took it very badly when random people trying to take pictures of him. i mean come on you are walking around with a go pro and recording everyday people minding their own business, why cant they take pictures of you back? Not a lot of chinese people could see a foreigner all dressed up and its pretty natural that they wanted to record this moment of their life, just like you want to record them. So i really appreciate you and Ivana being really chill about this.

史帅and肯高飞 Can you recognize your Chinese name?帅means GENERAL as a noun and HANDSOME as an adj., he explained it very clearly. 肯,which is Ken's first name, means willing to/love to as an adv., so 肯高飞 means the man is willing to or loves to fly high in the sky, the extended meaning is to chase his dreams. Your Chinese names are pretty good in fact lol
