    mzamanm, unfortunately, the spelling makes it difficult to find the origin. I do not believe it is chinese. The words Paschi & Moten, can be found in Italian and they are proper names, such as streets or someone's last name. Other words that are similar can be found in Dutch & Spanish. Pastiche in Italian means hodgepodge or a stylistic interpretation, it is dependent upon it's usage.

    Can you possibly give us a little more information as to how the words were used, in what context, and maybe attempt to spell them phoenetically? We will try to help you if it is at all possible.

    The Word Is Pronounced Something Like Pas-e-chi and The Other Word Is Mott-an Or Something Very Similar To It.
    I Appreciate Your Efforts And Offer Thanks.

    It could possibly be mandarin chinese or any other dialect. Unfortunately, I cannot translate this for you. Maybe someone else will stop by and be able to help at some point.
