For Amy: Managua is Mǎnàguā / 马那瓜 / 馬那瓜
Mǎnàguā seems perfectly transliterated, but if it were translated literally, my guess is that it would be something like: Horse that claws
February 15th, 2007 at 1:06 am
Hey , how do you say peruvian in chinese
thanks, ciao
February 15th, 2007 at 1:19 am
Hi Rodrigo,
Peru is Bìlǔ (秘鲁) so a Peruvian person would be a Bìlǔrén.
February 20th, 2007 at 12:57 pm
Would you say “She/he is beautiful” by:
Tā shì Měi
?
February 20th, 2007 at 3:27 pm
Hi Malcolm
You would need to say: Tā hěn měi. In English that translates to “She is ‘very’ beautiful” but in Chinese the hěn has a lighter meaning so it’s needed for this sentence to make any sense.
February 26th, 2007 at 12:51 am
how do you say ecuador
February 26th, 2007 at 3:00 am
Hi Ricky,

Ni hao everyone,
I’m very curious to find out what: Holland a.k.a The Netherlands is and ‘I’m Dutch’ (not to be mistaken with I am Deutsch…;-) that always seems to be tricky…;-)
Xie Xie!
Catherine
March 23rd, 2007 at 6:05 pm
Hi Catherine,
The Netherlands in Chinese is He2lan2 (荷兰). I’ve added it to the Vocabulary section above. So to say “I’m Dutch” you’d say Wo3 shi4 He2lan2ren2.

Hi everyone
I really like your podcast. Thank you so much for offering it. I hope I can use my knowledge when I will travel to Asia this summer.
Now my “country” question: Could you tell me how ‘Switzerland’ is written in Mandarin?
Have a nice weekend
Chris
March 26th, 2007 at 12:57 am
Hi Chris,
Switzerland is Ruìshì (瑞士). Thanks for listening!
-Adam
March 26th, 2007 at 6:28 pm
I’m happy to say that the Vocabulary section above has been updated with all the countries you asked for with Simplified, Traditional characters and Audio! So pick your favorite country and learn how to pronounce it. These countries are also now part of the Word-bank.
May 1st, 2007 at 3:40 am
你好!
I’m revisiting these erlier lessons and realize that I don’t know my contry name in chinese. If I would like to say “I am from Norway” will it be in this way then? In this exampel but here you don’t use “guó =国” for country
wǒ láizì nuówēi should be like this in chinese 我来自挪威 or could I also say it in this way “wǒ shì cóng nuówēi = 我是从挪威”
I look forward to your answer
regards Haakan
May 1st, 2007 at 5:12 pm
Hi Haakan.
As you noted, there are a couple of ways to say it.
1. Wǒ láizì Nuówēi.
2. Wǒ cóng Nuówēi lái.
In lesson 13, I go over the question and answer format for the #2 format.
Hope that helps!

how do you say Filipino/Philippines in mandarin?
xie xie ni!
July 13th, 2007 at 12:06 am
Hello KC,
Philippines is Fèilǜbīn in Mandarin. To learn how to say it, click on the Vocabulary link above to hear the pronunciation of many countries. To say someone is Filipino, you just add a rén at the end so a Filipino would be a Fèilǜbīnrén.
July 15th, 2007 at 3:38 pm
Hello, how would you say Lithuania?
July 15th, 2007 at 7:50 pm

Hello Jacek,
Poland is Bōlán (波兰 / 波蘭)
A Polish person is Bōlánrén while the Polish language would be Bōlányǔ.
August 1st, 2007 at 2:04 pm
Ni hao
Xiexie ni, but how to pronounce “-nyu”?
Zaijian
August 2nd, 2007 at 12:55 am
The yǔ refers to “language” so it actually becomes “Bōlán yǔ”
