    Lee can mean lots of things, is that a verb or noun or adj or adv and what context is it in? And what tone is it?( there are four tones) and make sure it's Chinese not Japanese, because there is the same term "lee" in Jap means differently...

    Yes, in Chinese.
    Someone told me it means "beauty" or something similar. I would like to know if that's right.
    Should I ask you what's the Chinese word for "beauty"? The noun

    Thanks a lot

    Actually,Lee and Ly are both chinese family names!And their pinxin are the same,that is li,but the tone for lee is the third,and the tone for ly is the second.If someone know CANTONESE,they will understand Lee and Ly well!
    There are so many chinese words for Beauty,such as (pinyin) piao liao,mei ren...
    Anyone who want to know something about chinese or eager to learn chinese,please just let me know!:)

    Hi,nelsien.

    Pig maybe "zhu", you maybe "ni", and qiut maybe "fang qi".

    I don't know how you guys to learn Chinese, but I know "pinyin", because I'm Chinese. My teacher told me that foreigners learnt Chinese just for the sound...

    I think I could help you in Chinese and our cultrue. If you have any question about China, you would be welcome to ask me.

    Thanks!
