windows translating
ok this doesn't really concern linux except for the fact that solving my problem will help me to install linux.
i have a chinese version of win xp pro installed, but i can't read chinese!! does anyone know of a translating program where i can find out what these chinese characters mean? im seriously having so much trouble with it. i keep getting my bilingual friends to translate for me but they are getting very annoyed with me. please help me out!! |
First, I think it's funny that you're in China and don't know the language!
But really, if you want less grief from your translator friends, it's because you're not paying them off. How come you don't know Chinese tradition Zhou? |

yah, i could do that, but there are things like partitioning my drive i will do from windows before linux is installed. it will be difficult to do this if its all in chinese.
ive only been in china for 2-3 months, since leaving canada. and im learning chinese, slowly....... |
O that 's funny
I'm chinese here in Ireland if you have any question about chinese print it out and I will translate for you free :-)))) |
cool, will do. hey, what does "zhou yi" mean?
by any chance, do you know tony? |
haha
zhou yi means something mythical, I think it may be a historical science of china. With this knowledge you can forecast the whether and people's life I am not good at english, it is difficult for me to explain it even in chinese. Few people in china know zhou yi nowadays. |
tony??
Is it your friend in ireland Absolutly not |
how did you pick that name?
|
tony is a friend of mine who left taiyuan, shanxi a month ago for ireland. thought maybe YOU were him. hehe.
i chose zhou yi because it perfectly matches my english name, joey (joe-y) |

actually, there are several different dialects spoken in china, like over 10 that could all be considered their own language seeing as how they are so different. mandarin and kantonese are 2 major dialects spoken in northern and southern china respectively.
|
yes so many dialects. because china have such long history.

You must be another chinese
glad to see you here but what you sail I don't agree There are so many other dialects like Shanxi Shanxi just because they have different annouce. As you say Contonese just because it has the pronouce standard of itself |
