Chinese Slang

September 21, 2008

I’ve been messing around with translation recently, and have learned some interesting slang commonly used on chinese bbs boards;Here is a list of common ones (thanks to Fauna at chinasmack)

ccav = CCTV. It is a joke because some people do not think CCTV deserves respect so they call it CCAV, AV = Adult Video, instead of TV = Television.
K = kao (fuck, like cao),
JC = Jin Cha (police),
TMD = ta ma de (motherfucker I think, or maybe dammit/damn).
ZF = zeng fu (government)
LZ = lou zhu (the original poster, topic starter)
