Profile
I'm an English speaker in New Jersey, US, living right near NYC. I'm really interested in learning Chinese (Mandarin) but I have very little knowledge of the language so far. I'm a web developer and musician (guitar, piano) and would love to find someone with related interests to have relatable dialogue with!

    What is the Pinyin and Traditional Mandarin for "Keith"? I have had some trouble trying to figure out what my name would look like in Chinese (Mandarin) and which Pinyin to use when using the Chinese keyboard. Does anyone know if there is a translation?

    It's usually not good grammar, but it's very popular in music from 1960-ish and up, for example, "Aint that Peculiar" by Marvin Gaye https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaPl_mmmHnY and it's still used a lot in modern rap and pop. You don't usually use it in conversation unless you're quoting a song lyric when it's appropriate. For example, if you do something that seems tough, you might say "aint nothing but a G thang" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=flBuQ8ZZ7Bs) in a joking way.
