<< review queue entry 39169 - submitted by 'alanwatson' >> Beating even cellulite on yesterday's Taiwan TV news was continuing Linsanity. I originally thought this too ephemeral to add to the dictionary (and would not be the least disappointed if the editors still think so), but I do see we have just added his name. Interesting article about it from UPenn professor Victor Mair here: http://languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu/nll/?p=3772#more-3772 He says that 林來瘋jumped from 155k to 683k g hits in two days. It now gets 11m. More seriously, we don't have the original Chinese word it is adapted from. You will see that I have taken 'hyped up etc' (for 人來瘋) from Prof Mair. Playing up in front of guests is translated from MoE. Editor: I got 19 million just now. Some examples for 人来疯 (it's not just children, as ABC suggests) ~ 摩羯座女生的情绪可以好多样，可以非常非常安静的不说话，也可以人来疯跟大家 玩的非常开心，这取决于她和谁在一起。 真心觉得我爸爸会喜欢你，因为你跟我爸一样是小孩子，跟我爸一样是二百二，跟 我爸一样是人来疯，跟我爸一样让我哭笑不得，还跟我爸一样，视我如无价之宝 它特聪明不会错过任何一次兜风的机会。它人来疯。强硬的家具被他啃得乱 |
