<< review queue entry 41487 - submitted by 'xiaoxiong' >> http://baike.baidu.com/view/207660.htm A** also agrees: 拜拜 báibái bye-bye; break up (with); See also bàibai 拜拜 bàibai bring hands together and bow; a worshipping festival in Taiwan; See also báibái Editor: There's a problem in relying on any particular source for the pronunciation of 拜拜: The two quoted sources contradict each other. Baidu says it's báibái for all senses, whereas ABC says it's bàibai for the "bow" sense. Meanwhile, other respectable sources (e.g. MoE, FLTRP) say it's bàibai for all senses. In Chinesepod transcripts, for the "bye-bye" sense, it's variously written as bāibāi or báibái or bàibài. But if you listen to the Chinesepod voice actors they actually say báibái or bāibai or bāibāi. http://chinesepod.com/tools/glossary/entry/%E6%8B%9C%E6%8B%9C Wiktionary says ~ 拜拜 (traditional and simplified, Pinyin bàibài, bāibái or báibái) Please don't copy another dictionary's definitions verbatim, especially if you also submit the name of the source for public display like this. (I have redacted the submitted comments.) In CEDICT, verbs require "to" --- e.g. "to bring hands together ..." Web ~ - 男友这样我该继续呢？还是和他拜拜 - 用了五年的联通，最后还是和它拜拜了！ N ~ - 他俩感情不和，去年拜拜了 - 我早就和烟卷儿拜拜了。 拜拜可以指： 祭祀 英語「bye-bye」音譯，再見、告辭之意，也作「掰掰」 ---- http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E6%8B%9C%E6%8B%9C Web ~ 不停地揮手還大聲地說：「掰掰！掰掰！」 baibai (ceremony) ~ "In Taiwan, these incense sticks are used when praying to the gods. This form of ritualistic prayer is called bai bai and is the most common form of worship in Taiwan. In addition to lighting joss sticks, Taiwanese people will also offer food and money to the gods by burning paper money, also called spirit money, and placing food items on small tables outside their homes and businesses." Web ~ 每年農曆春節，信奉一貫道的夫家則有繁複的拜拜儀式需要準備。 |
