Another common way of making nicknames is by putting &quot;\u8001&quot; (l\u01ceo) before one&#8217;s surname. Usually this is used with older men, for example, &quot;\u8001\u738b&quot; (l\u01ceo w&aacute;ng).<\/p>\n<p>  2. &quot;\u8fd9\u513f&quot; and &quot;\u8fd9&quot;<br \/>  &quot;\u8fd9\u513f&quot; (zh&egrave;r) versus &quot;\u8fd9&quot; (zh&egrave;): The first means &quot;here&quot;, the second means &quot;this&quot;. &quot;\u8fd9\u513f&quot; is the same as &quot;\u8fd9\u91cc&quot; (zh&egrave; l\u01d0).<\/p>\n<p>  3. \u771f<br \/>  &quot;\u771f&quot; (zh\u0113n) means &quot;really&quot; and is often used before an adjective to signal emphasis.<\/p>\n<p>  4. \u90a3<br \/>  &quot;\u90a3&quot; (n&agrave;) is defined in this dialogue as &quot;in that case&#8230;&quot;.<br type=\"_moz\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"chine-tie-zi-nei-rong-zhi-hou\" id=\"chine-2892494616\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-1889418300638825\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1889418300638825\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"7273022922\" \ndata-ad-layout-key=\"-gw-3+1f-3d+2z\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the dorm Dachuan and Gao Qiang are playing Chinese chess.
