What do these chinese symbols mean?

The first character 山 means mountain/critical point (yama).
Considering Japanese borrowed Chinese characters, it should be the same thing (i think), but pronounced (shan1).

I don't know the 2nd character.

redkyuubi

ni hao ( hello )

the second character 拿 prounces na ( second tune ) and it means to take something from somebody or somewhere.

tomgeniewang

and also, the second character prounces luo ( sounds like lord without the prounciation of " rd " ) in cantannese

and the first prounces san in cantanese.

redkyuubi

^ mei wen ti, ye hen gao xing jian dao ni.... ni bu shi zhong guo ren me? wo juede ni shi zhong guo ren...lol... dui bu qi. wo you yi ge topic: shui you geng duo de quanli me? naruto/sasuke?

No problem, its also very nice to meet you.... youre not chinese? i thought you were..lol... sorry... i guess i have a topic: who is more powerful? naruto or sasuke?

tomgeniewang

ni hao, hen gao xing jian dao ni. dui bu qi, wo xiang zhi wu ni de yi ge cuo wu. quan li ying gai gai wei li liang. wo jue de naturo geng you li liang. shou xian ta de cha ke la yao bi sasuke duo. er qie ta de ren shu ye hen li hai

hello, nice to meet you. bit i'm sorry i'm gonna point out a mistake you made. in this case, power should be translate into li liang in stead of quan li.

i think naruto is more powerful. cuz he has more chakera. and his jutsu is exellent

OffTheChain

@redkyuubi: lol XD Nah. Wo shi ri ben ren. I think Sasuke atm. Naruto is possibly more powerful than Sasuke but he has yet to unlock his full power.

redkyuubi

^lol... ri ben ren me? cool. Wo ye bu shi zhong guo ren. i've always wanted to check out ri ben guo, how is it there?... is it like china or completely different? BTW, naruto can kick sasuke's ass, i think so anyways....

@tomgenie- shi li liang me? wei shen me le? quan li shi control or power dui ba?,
qing, peng you, Please dont be afraid to tell me when i write something thats wrong or incorrect, my pin yin is only ma ma hu hu after all...lol... but my spoken chinese is pretty good..

tomgeniewang

redkyuubi, nice to meet u. and very glad to know that your spoken chinese is quite good.
and no problem, if you make some mistakes i will point it out. and if you have some questions, i will be glad to answer them.
quan li means you have the right to do something. like wo you quan li xuan ze wo zi ji de sheng huo( i have the right to choose my own life), li liang means the power that shows you are strong physically.

and i'm afraid i can't understand the meaning of "qing peng you". could you translate it into english?

ni hao, offthechain. wo zhi dao hen duo ri ben ren bu xi huan zhong guo ren. hen duo zhong guo ren ye bu xi huan ri ben ren. dan shi wo xi wang neng yu ni jiao ge peng you, ke yi ma? hai you redkyuubi, wo ye xiang gen ni jiao peng you, ke yi ma?
hi, offthechain. i know that many japanese dislike chinese and many chinse dislike japanese. but i wanna make frends with you. is that ok? and also , i wanna make friends with you, redkyuubi, is that ok?

redkyuubi

hmm... in my understanding quan li means to have power by the means of control, where as shi li means to have power by the means of influence... at least that's the way i learned it in china...i used the term quan li to express naruto/sasuke's control of their abilities, not just their physical strength- but i can understand the difference.

BTW, qing peng you- my meaning was "Please, friend"... so, ni jiao wo peng you all you want lol. Hai you wo ye zhi dao hen duo zhong guo ren bu xi huan ri ben ren, jin de.
-So you can call me "friend" all you want..lol..yeah, i also know that a lot of chinese people dont like japanese people, its true.
