Why "250" Sounds Dangerous in Chinese 【Culture Secrets B02 二百五十】
Why does the number "250" mean something perfectly normal in one culture, but something completely different in another? In this episode of Yao.Vision, we explore a fascinating Chinese expression through America's 250th anniversary. You'll learn how to read and write 二百五十 (èr bǎi wǔ shí, "two hundred fifty"), discover why the shortened form 二百五 (èr bǎi wǔ) carries a very different meaning in Chinese, and explore how the same number can tell completely different stories across cultures. Every Chinese character has a story. Every culture sees the world a little differently. Welcome to Yao.Vision.
