A: 又在聊天啊。怎麼這麼多數字？還有這些話，是
中文嗎？
yo`u za`i lia´otia¯ n a. zeˇnme zhe`me duo¯ hua`, sh`ı Zho¯ ngwe´n ma?
shu`z`ı? ha´iyoˇu zhe`xie¯
You’re chatting again. Why so many numbers? And what’s this crazy language? Is it Chinese?
B: 爺爺，這都是網絡語言。現在大家在網上都用這
些。

Grandpa, this is all internet slang. Nowadays everyone uses it online.
A: 是你們自己瞎編的吧？
sh`ı nˇımen z`ıjˇı xia¯ bia¯ n de ba?
Did you all randomly concoct it yourselves?
B: 不是， 這些都是有道理的。很多是諧音， 比如說“偶”是“我”的意思，“稀飯”就是“喜歡 ”。您看，我這裡寫的“偶稀飯”就是“我喜歡”。

No, it all makes sense. A lot of it is similar pronunciation, like “ou” meaning “wo,” and “xifan” for “xihuan.” Look, where it says “ou xifan” right here means “wo xihuan.”
A: 哦，是這個意思。我還以為是你吃稀飯不消化， 嘔出來了。那，這個“醬紫”是什麼？

Oh, is that what it means. I thought it meant you ate congee but didn’t digest it, then threw it up. So what’s this “jiangzi?”
B: “這樣子”。爺爺，您看，除了這些，這裡還有
一些是數字諧音，比如886，94。

ba¯ ba¯ liu`, jiuˇs`ı.
“Zheyangzi.” Grandpa, look. Besides these, there are also some numerical approximations, like 886 and 94.
A: 我看不懂。誰平時說話用這些？
woˇ
ka`nbudoˇng. she´i p´ıngsh´ı shuo¯ hua`

I don’t understand them. Who uses that when they talk?
B: “886”是再見的意思，英文的諧音。“94”是“
就是”。
“ ba¯ ba¯ liu`” sh`ı za`ijia`n de y`ısi, Y¯ıngwe´n de xie´y¯ın. “ jiuˇs`ı” sh`ı “ jiu`sh`ı” .
“886” means “bye-bye,” mimicking English. “94” means “precisely.”
A: 喲，這裡還有英文字母呢!“MM”,“GG”是什麼？還有“PMP”。
yo¯ , zhe`lˇı ha´i yoˇu Y¯ıngwe´n z`ımuˇ me? ha´i yoˇu “ PMP” .
ne! “ MM” , “ GG” sh`ı she´n-
Oh, and here there are even English letters! What are “MM” and “GG?” And this “PMP?”
B: 是“妹妹”、“哥哥”。這些都來自拼音。不過，一般指的就是女孩、男孩。這個“PMP”是 “拍馬屁”。
sh`ı “ me`imei” , “ ge¯ ge” . zhe`xie¯ do¯ u la´iz`ı p¯ıny¯ın. bu`guo`,
y¯ıba¯ n zhˇı de jiu`sh`ı nuˇ¨ ha´ir, na´nha´ir. zhe`ge “ PMP” sh`ı “ pa¯ i- maˇp`ı” .
That’s “meimei” and “gege.” They come from the pinyin. But they just refer to girls and boys. This “PMP” means “pai ma pi.”
A: 網上真是什麼奇怪的東西都有。有話直說吭。

是什麼意思？
