]]> <![CDATA[They've Nailed Down This Cheering Thing In China]]> @GyroBallsDeep: I think it's called anglicizing or something like that. Other languages do it to. To someone from Paris, London is Londres which would be the capital of Angleterre? I think it's just worse for two languages when they aren't from the same family (germanic, romantic, etc).

Taoism - there is no cheer/you are the cheer.
Confucionism - You must cheer or shame your family.
Buddhism - Cheering is suffering.
