Taken the elephants as an example , we can name them with some very special features, like “four pillars,” “two sharp horns,” “long nose,” etc. As to the potato here, “土豆” which used in simplified Chinese means “earth bean,” and “馬鈴薯” in traditional Chinese means “horse bell yam” literally. This kind of naming variants also exist within different regions of Chinese speaking people besides the writing system. > Thanks, > Mihkel > >> -- Cheers, by Cheng-Chia Tseng -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/l10n/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
