Mr. Silly Posted October 30, 2019 Share #13 Posted October 30, 2019 The 'Q' is just an 'O' that thinks it's special because if has a tail and is usually escorted around with a 'u'. I don't think it is all that special, the 'Q' is just a big showoff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MickinMD ★ Posted October 31, 2019 Share #32 Posted October 31, 2019 Q is weird in the "corrected" American pronunciation of Chinese words, where Q sounds like "ch." I guess it's a little different than the normal "ch" to the Chinese. For example the old name of China's largest city, in English, was Chunking. Now it's Chongqing. But it's pronounced "Chongching." When I was in Chongqing I asked why it's not either "Qongqing" or "Chongching" in Roman letters and was told, "That's your problem. Here we use Chinese Characters." The only important Chinese Characters I memorized before I left to tour China were: The rectangle "head"on the left character signifies a divided farm field over a stylized stick figure and the complete character means "man." The right character means "toilet." I always memorize the local sign for "men's room" when I travel to non-English speaking places. It always comes in handy!
