Speaking of numbers...

Chinese bad words - stupidity and madness
When you want to tell someone that they are not the smartest or a little crazy, it can be useful to learn these few phrases...
As you will see, many negative meaning words in Chinese are made of eggs, such as:
old
Like a "stupid egg", this term takes some getting used to.call someone a fool, idiot, idiotetc.
villain
Being a "rotten egg" This is an adjective that is often used tocall someone unscrupulousor with reference to a "bad person".
bastard (she dan)
It means to be a "mixed egg". As you can probably guess, calling someone a "mixed egg" has something to do with their uncertain origins.
In fact, this word is used to name a person who is a scoundrel, scoundrel or scoundrel.
stupid (shǎquē) / stupid hat (shǎmàor)
Both simply mean dumb -not the harshest of the insults we've listed here... but still, make it clear!
(Talent Table)
Pervert.
This word is used both to define someone who actually suffers from mental illness and someone who has an ambiguous manner and attitude.
DID YOU KNOW? You often hear this as a condiment in certain restaurants..
As you can imagine, biǎn tài lā (which translates directly to pervert as hot) means the hottest thing you could ever want.
Chinese bad words: relaxed sexual morality
masturbarse (dǎ fēi jī)
Literally translated, this means "hit the plane."
How does this relate to a sexual swear word? Reflect…?
Y,it means masturbate! Makes sense now, doesn't it?
The three little ones (xiǎo sān)
Literally "little three", it refers to someone who isthird person/third wheel in a relationship, another name for a foster wife, mistress.
Hündin (jiàn rén) and Hündin (jiàn huò)
Both expressions contain the word 贱 Jiàn "cheap" and refer toa simple woman or a cheap person. The former is followed by 人 rén "person", the latter by 货 "goods".
Miss (xiǎo jiě)
If you're in Taiwan and Hong Kong, you can call a young lady 小姐 "Miss", but if you're in mainland China, you'd better just say "美女", pretty girl, becauseSenorita became synonymous with "prostitute".
Selling tofu (fu para afilar)
This has a funny literal translation that doesn't seem to make much sense!
"Sell Tofu" in the true sense of the word! It is used as a euphemism for prostitution.
If you are a vegetarian or avegan in china, and you like tofu, keep your cool when asking around at local markets and restaurants!
comer tofu
Another tofu-related swear word? Strange right?!
This literal translation is "eating tofu"
It is used to describe a man who is a pervert.
Be careful if a Chinese friend asks you 你喜欢吃豆腐吗? (Do you like tofu?)...if it's a good/close friend, he probably won't ask you what you think...! Note the soft and somewhat springy texture of the tofu...
We leave the rest to the imagination!
PSST –want to learnhow to read a chinese menuin minutes?
