Merry Christmas from the McClintocks!
Wow, 2012 has been full of adventure and the day-to-day joys of being an expat. Thank you for taking the time to read about our family and to cheer us on!
In case you were wondering how to say a few Chrismas-related words in Chinese, here is a quick lesson for you...
Merry Christmas = Sheng dan kuai le (pronounced: shang dan kwhy luh)
Happy New Year = xin nian kuai le (pronounced: sheen nee-an kwhy luh)
Father Christmas = sheng dan lao ren (pronounced: shang dan laow rin, literally translates: Christmas old people!)
turkey = huo ji (pronounced huwoah gee, literally translates: fire chicken!)
By the way, the picture below is the one that didn't make the cut for this year's Christmas card!
My favorite part is the 4-year-old that had to literally be pulled into the photo on the bean bag chair. |
