Title: Wei shen me(weishenme) -- definition, meaning, translation
Post by: MSL on May 09, 2014, 02:50:23 AM

About the meaning/translation of wei shen me(weishenme)


  You'll get the definition of this easy word very fast. At first, let me start with this: weishenme and wei shen me are one and the same, but spelled in different ways. The better one is wei shen me, because it reflects better the 3-character structure of this Chinese word. In Chinese it is

为什么

and the meaning is "why". I think "why" is the best translation of this word. (http://translate.google.cn/?hl=en#zh-CN/en/%E4%B8%BA%E4%BB%80%E4%B9%88 (http://translate.google.cn/?hl=en#zh-CN/en/%E4%B8%BA%E4%BB%80%E4%B9%88)) The pinyin for weishenme/wei shen me/为什么 is

wèishéme
