Talk:圣方济会

RFD discussion: October 2020

 * Keep to facilitate intercultural dialogue we need to know how to say San Franciscan in ChineseBuyAthenaTroy (talk) 02:33, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Do you even know what you are doing here? How is the Chinese for San Franciscan "圣方济会"? Do you know what 圣方济会 actually means? As I've said earlier, you seem to have little to no knowledge of the Chinese language. What you put in the pronunciation module further demonstrates this. RcAlex36 (talk) 02:36, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Since you know so much what should it be then? Sam Fam Ren or 三藩市居民 let's get it right, it seems 圣方济会 means Franciscan as in the order?BuyAthenaTroy (talk) 02:41, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Sam Fam Ren? What's this? A mixture of Cantonese and Mandarin? If you have to ask, you shouldn't be creating the entry in the first place. 三藩市居民 means a resident of San Francisco and is sum of parts.
 * You got 圣方济会 from Google Translate. If you speak Mandarin you'd know SF is called 舊金山, and if you speak Cantonese you'd know SF is called 三藩市. If you can't figure out what a San Franciscan should be called in Chinese, then I must say you are pretty bad at Chinese, which means you shouldn't be out there creating Chinese entries. Also, one should not add translations from Google Translate to the translation modules. RcAlex36 (talk) 02:51, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

 * But we need an entry for San Franciscan!03:13, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * This is not the entry for that, and I don't think there's a non-SoP word that we could have for that. Not every word in English has a corresponding entry in Chinese. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 03:22, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * There must be there trillions of words out there if not more!BuyAthenaTroy (talk) 03:23, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * It would be appropriate to add Chinese translations to the Translations section of the noun San Franciscan, also if these terms are SOP in Chinese. --Lambiam 16:22, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
