Good day, my friends,

We have lots of names in different languages. I have names in Mandarin, in Japanese, in English, in Spanish, and in Taiwanese (a kind of dialect in Chinese). I dug meanings of my nameS, they appear hopes which my parents or teachers wanted me to be.

Do you know the meaning of your Chinese name?

We had a homework about writing your name, there are simple meaning on the paper for each words. Maybe someone think that it is not enough.

Here is a website, 中華起名網, it can let you dig the meaning of each word deeply.

You can fill “a word” to this grid with TRADITIONAL CHINESE.If you didn’t know how to type in traditional Chinese with pingyin, you could reference this PDF document. This PDF teaches us how to set your computer.

Then, we can find the meaning of each words in lots of Chinese and a little of English. 🙂
If there were not meaning in English, you could ask me. I will explain them for you.

Now, you have meanings of the two words of your first name. Please combine them, and integrate them.
For example, 洪家寶, “家” is “home; family”, “寶” is “treasure; precious”. So “家寶” means that he is “the treasure in their family”.

In a few days later, I want everyone in 10 grade to SPEAK to introduce what the meaning of your own name, both of Spanish name and Chinese name.

Ps.
At last but most important, thanks for Professor Kelly Lin, she shared this website to us.
