iPhone Chinese Alphabet App
January 31st, 2010 | View Comments
Good Characters, Inc has come out with a new iPhone application: Chinese Alphabet. Thankfully, the creators realize such a thing does not exist and this is for entertainment value only, to add “mystery” to your writing. Of course, everything from the Orient is mysterious…
To those gullible enough to think this will translate their writing into real Chinese, for just $1.99 you can sound like an idiot!
三內丁口了!
According to the app, it says “Enjoy”, but it actually says:
“Three inside diced meat/vegetables mouth [past tense marker]!”
On second thought, I might actually enjoy three pieces of diced meat/vegetables in my mouth. Mmm… beef stew.

American-born Taiwanese girl who married a Japanese guy. And who forgot about six years' of Spanish grammar and most of the vocab.
Korean-American girl who blogs under a Spanish pseudonym because being culturally confusing is fun. Native speakers say that she has outstanding Spanish (which is a definite compliment) and outstanding German (which is most assuredly not).
American-born, Taiwanese guy who took five semesters worth of German and ended up with a major in Linguistics.
