OK guys, we are going to continue our vocabulary lessons. Today’s word is:
Yes, it does not have a corresponding Chinese word, just the pinyin (phonetic alphabet). It was created by the sponsor of the 2008 Modern Sky Festival, the brains behind Modern Sky Records, one of the leading rock labels in China.
They set up a 4th stage called “cha” which had no artists’ performances during the festival. Everybody could get on the stage to show off, act stupid, or do whatever they want to win prizes. It’s Modern Sky’s this year’s new idea to implement their concept of “Music+”-not just music/more than music.
Well, what exactly does “cha” mean? Look at this poster first:
An elementary school girl wearing 1980s style dress and haircut holding a bottle of Er Guo Tou, one of the strongest Beijing made liquor!
I guess that’s what “cha” means. Do what you want, even if it’s stupid, and go hell with what other people may think about it!
That’s it for today. Let’s “cha”!
I just LOVE these vocabulary posts! You explain the words very well too. I will never forget the pictures for “cha” and “lei”!
haha, I wish I could hang that cha poster in my apartment!
hehe, I wish to have that on my wall, too! Let me see if I can find it somewhere.
That would be great. Let me know if you ever find it for sale!!
sure thing!
the girl looks like dora the explorer!
..thanks for these lessons. by the way, can you also include how to pronounce them? is it cha as in cha-cha or cha as in change? coz i am not really good in reading the stresses (like that one on top of A)
