Dear friend

Someone should add an explaination for the 'Dear friend' salutation commonly used by native chinese speakers, even in very formal contexts. --91.114.188.73 (talk) 14:33, 9 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

“N****r-brown”

At least 4 incidents involving the use of the N-word to describe the color brown — the 2007 Doris Moore Sofa Incident, Abercrombie & Fitch in 2012, the 2017 Walmart hairnet incident, and, most recently, a pair of boots listed on Groupon in 2018 — all have Chinese origins and stem from a Chinglish mistranslation. Might be worth mentioning in this article. Thank you. 2600:1700:53A0:63D0:D41A:197D:4562:C0FF (talk) 16:20, 26 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
