English is a foreign language that we learn from primary school, and as our second language, it is bound to have a process of integration with our mother tongue. In this process, a lot of Chinese English (chinglish) was produced, that is, English with Chinese vocabulary, grammar, and expression habits.
When we speak English in the habit of speaking in Chinese, Chinese English is often blurted out, some of which are ridiculous, but some of which are amazing, and have become classics among classics, and have even been included in dictionaries of European and American countries, and widely circulated in foreign countries.
Behind the widespread recognition of these Chinese English, it reflects the continuous improvement of the influence of Chinese culture, and at the same time, it also injects new vitality and vitality into the English language.

Cai Shangjun's film of the same name "People Mountain People Sea" (People Mountain People Sea) debuted at the 68th Venice Film Festival, and he also won the Best Director Award at the Venice Film Festival for this film, so this term has gradually become familiar to the English-speaking world, and it has also been included in the well-known English slang dictionary "City Dictionary".
Directly taken from the pinyin of the word "local tycoon", translated as "tuhao", this word has also been included in the "Urban Dictionary", which is explained as: Chinese nouveau riche, the new rich class, usually spend money indiscriminately to show off (Chinese nouveau riche.). new money, mostly not well spent.)。
A pure word-for-word translation of Chinese English, which was included in the Oxford English Dictionary in 2018.
Nowadays, this sentence is used no less frequently than "long time no see" abroad, and many foreigners think that this reading is correct, so they advocate that Oxford Dictionaries revise the original words.
This is obviously a Chinese English, but its production has little to do with the Chinese people. It was discovered by foreigners through the study of Chinese English and then on their own, so it still comes down to Chinese English.
We all know dumpling in English, but in the eyes of foreigners, dumpling refers to "dough stuffed" food, such as Qingtuan and tangyuan, etc., and the "real" English name of dumplings is our pinyin jiaozi, and this transliteration has been included in the Oxford Dictionary.
It's another year when the Spring Festival is approaching, and I believe many friends are beginning to look forward to red envelopes, so how to say "red envelopes" in English? That's right!
