<< review queue entry 62796 - submitted by 'monigeria' >> Very common onom. https://zhidao.baidu.com/question/375043713.html - BIU，像声词 - 口语拟声词 Baidu for some reason doesn't mention anything about 拟声 or 像声 https://baike.baidu.com/item/Biu/67979?fr=aladdin instead putting: 动词 V；形容词 adj 1、发射，发出。 2、破空的声音。 This Baidu Baike article does though mention it https://baike.baidu.com/item/Biu/4473545?fr=aladdin Biu，像声词，根据“biu”的发音“bi”和“u”，再加上拟声偏旁口，组成了“比”+“由”的生造“biu”字。 字词释义 BIU，如“我作看见一个飞碟‘BIU’地一声飞过去不见了”，因汉字不见其对应字，因此网络上常见“BIU”来替代。 ---- Picture suggests it's fourth tone, but I've noticed that first tone is more common. This comment supports that: https://chinese.stackexchange.com/questions/30160/is-there-a-character-for-biu I don't have evidence, but I want to believe that this is an artificial character created from the 反切 process. 比bi3 由you2 sounds very much like biu1 (I use biu1 but the picture suggests biu4) and 口 suggests an onomatopoeia. – Frenzy Li Jun 12 at 4:47 It has also been upvoted by other users. ---- Not sure about the above mentioned v. and adj. usages. ================================= Editor: Thanks for the word. Another Chinese word with a similar sound that's mentioned in YR Chao's dictionary is diu, as in "diu-diu!" : honk honk! (automobile) > "Baidu for some reason doesn't mention anything about 拟声 or 像声" Yes it does. Its definition mentions 声音: 发射，发出 or 破空的声音。 > "Not sure about the abovementioned v. and adj. usages." Onomatopoeic expressions in general can be used as verbs meaning "do the action that produces that sound". E.g. - 在说话我就biu你了 - 要BIU就BIU - 郁闷时你就“biu”一下 - 先biu他一下,免得直接被反击了 But there's no need to mention it in the definition explicitly imo. > "Picture suggests it's fourth tone, but I've noticed that first tone is more common." There's evidence of both on the Web. Wiktionary's entry says tone 4: biù (possibly childish, onomatopoeia) sound of gun shot; pew https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/bi%C3%B9 Elsewhere on the Web: biu是拟声词，发四声 > "we could also put (sometimes written: ⿰口⿱比由) in the entry." Is there evidence that people write it that way other than in discussions of the word? ------------------------------- More from the Web: 1) 还记得小时候玩过警察和坏蛋的游戏吗，曾经还是小男生的你，手里端着笤帚当做一把冲锋枪，朝着扮演坏蛋的小伙伴，不断地 “biu~biu~biu biu，da da da，bang bang ~ pong!”被发现的“坏蛋”则随即应声倒地，“啊~我死了!” http://www.pc6.com/infoview/Article_53123.html 2) 因为在我们的口语中，biu是子弹飞过的声音，形容一种转瞬既逝的时间行为，是一个象声词. 3) @Justinrleung Actually, there's no known dictionary that recorded this interjection as far as I know... Dokurrat (talk) 09:00, 21 December 2017 (UTC) @Dokurrat: Well, we're the first then haha. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Talk:bi%C3%B9 << They beat us by a few months :-) >> 4) “彪”为什么不读biū？“彪”没读成biū实在是太可惜了，少了一个象声词啊。彪~彪~彪~ https://www.zhihu.com/question/285924109 Incidentally, 彪 is apparently used to write biangbiang noodles: 彪彪麵 https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E5%BD%AA%E5%BD%AA%E9%BA%B5#Chinese |
