Chinese Word of the Day


- Tuo2 - Camel

駱駝 - Luo4 Tuo5 - Camel

This is another of those ones where (I thought) to say camel you have to say these two words together and they don’t mean anything seperately. But jeph says they do! Apparently means “white horse with black mane”. I wonder how many of the other words that I think don’t mean anything, except when used with one other word, actually mean something on their own.

Also 駝背 - Two2 Bei4 - Camel Back means Hunchback.
