Chinese slang blog
A blog dedicated to all the Chinese your teachers never told you...and you were too embarrassed to ask.
Nothing in the world can get a man’s undivided attention more than a gorgeous woman. Any expat living in China for more than a couple months knows how to say “Piao Lian”…a Chinese girl can hear that from any foreigner at the bar. But wouldn’t it be infinitely more impressive for a local Chinese girl if she heard you say that she looked like sexy, enchanting stunner that made you drool with envy? If you are a foreigner living in China, and you can learn the local Chinese slang that her parents still don’t know, it will make her laugh out loud and give you have a much better chance on landing that first date.
