Hey, Ergot.

[Sidoh]

What does this mean?

w xian zai bu neng he ni zu

Some guy in my guild is having his character power-leveled by some chinese dude and I whispered him and that was his response, followed by "sorry     hwere  are you   at?"

There's a Chinese guy in my guild, but he only knows Cantonese and he said that was Mandarin.

[Ergot]

I'm guessing w = wo would mean "I"
I don't know xian.
zai means "on" or "at"
bu means "no"
neng means "able"
he means "and"
ni "you"
I don't know zu.

However, pinyin/mandarin/chinese is very had to understand because those sounds have many meanings. It can be narrowed down if they gave the sound markings though... so it might not mean that at all.

Looking some of it up... "I currently can't join your group(guild)"

Yeah, I've heard that before.  Kind of interesting how that works.

Thanks, though.  :)

[Ergot]

READ THE EDITED... I helped myself solve it ;D

[Sidoh]

More likely group.  I was joined up with a guildie going into Dire Maul, so he was probably trying to /invite me.

Additionally, the foriegn exchange student here told me that Xiaomei is 'girl that is younger that you,' or something ot that affect.  Is this true.

Lots of Chinese gold farmers on my server =P

[Ergot]

xiao (small/little) mei (younger sister). xiao jie is also possible... jie is older sister ;P

[Sidoh]

Ergot, you've proven a useful resource.  We'll be in touch.

First comes translation, then comes marriage..... then Ergot pushing a baby carriage!

I've got some more for you, Ergot.  We met a farmer in Winterspring and were having a 'conversation' with her.

ni men zai zuo shenm ne

zao gan ma ne

[Ergot]

ni men zai zuo shen me ne?
What are you guys doing?
Word for Word:
ni =You
men = (pluralfy noun)
zai = on
zuo = work
shen me =what
ne = thingy to end question

Don't know what other one means, give me a second to look up.

The thing I'm worried about is WoW terms. I'm not familiar with WoW, or what they call shit in Chinese.
No clue what he's doing... but match it up using the dictionary.. maybe you'll find something.

[Sidoh]

It makes sense, since they are actually working on WoW.  (They farm gold and then sell it for real money).

Thanks again Ergot.  :)
