This Chinese joke is not for the faint of heart, and definitely not for kids. This profane language mix-up joke o<\/em>nly makes sense if you know which Chinese words have double meanings.
Dirty Chinese Jokes: Beginner, Intermediate AdvancedThe crux of the joke is that the word sun, \u65e5, and the word “grass”, \u8349, are pro<\/em>nounced identically to the way two Chinese swear words, both meaning “fuck”, are pronounced. So the phrase “\u6211\u65e5” means both “I’m the sun” and also “fuck me!”, while the phrase “\u6211\u8349“\u3000means both “I’m the grass” and (if pro<\/em>nounced the same but spelled differently in writing), “Fuck me!”
This usage of the term “\u6211\u64cd” (the profane way to spell \u6211\u8349) is pure Beijing taxi-driver slang, not an actual invitation to have sex. For example, “Fuck me! That guy almost ran right into us!”
There are a few other swear words with double meanings, so I’m going to do this a little differently than I usually do. I’ll write the Chinese, and in the English translation area, I’ll include the double meanings of words.
Lest you think I’m being crass [only] for crass’s (crasses? Crassnesses?) sake, these swear words are very often used in China, and because they have alternate meanings, it’s hard to figure out what’s going on when you read them.

Grass: I’m grass, who are you?
Sun: I’m the sun.
Grass: I’m the grass. Seriously, who are you?
Sun: I’m the sun! And you’re the grass!
Grass: Goddamnit (literally: His mother’s)! Really this time, who are you? I’m the grass!
Sun: I’m the sun! The sun, I say!
