Also, you gave two translations to the second sentence. You might want to choose one of them and post the other as a note. Thanks. | | | 23 September 2009 09:55 | | | Thanks for your comment.
I suppose that when we ask someone's name , it should be ether first name or last, and when we address to a stranger someone unknown, maybe the better way is to ask their last name=â€å§“æ°â€œ.
And for your second question, when we speak to someone young, to a child, we can ask "å‡ å²äº†ï¼Œå¤šå¤§äº†â€œï¼Œ and when to use a more "genteel" tournure, maybe the other term is a choice.
Thanks again | | | 28 September 2009 08:12 | | | When you are asked what your name is you don't say Mr. Something do you? You tell them your full name, and the one who asks will be the one who calls you Mr. Something. So I guess it's not a first-name-last-name thing. Plus, Chinese see both names as a whole.
As for the second question, that's what you should be putting into the note. | | | 29 September 2009 03:36 | | | Thank you for your remarks, you are right! |
