So... I'm not sure if this is meant to be here but I don't know where else to put it.

猪队友:

1. A pig teammate. The clumsy/horrible at games one you don't want to team up with. If it's not friendly fire it's tripping up, causing your enemy to have an opportunity to attack. Often used in the phrase: 宁可神样的敌人也不要猪队友 (I've taken some liberties here since I couldn't remember the actual phrase) Which means you'd rather have a god-like enemy than a pig teammate.

I bought a watch last year
haha

 

Yi!

 

I don't know the full form in Chinese since I haven't read raws involving that (I think it's an old slang)

 

I, your father will__________.
I, your grandfather will____.
It goes like that basically.

 

there is this word for miss (Miss Zhou. a honorary). forgot the word, probably still in dictionary somewhere.
now it stands for prostitute. idk how...
also. change tone of 妈 to 马 and you get horse. YOUR HORSE/MOTHER. i swear it sounds the same sometimes

 

I think the words used for that are ‘老子’ for males and '老娘' for females.

 

666=厉害
555=crying
菜逼=废物
变态=OP
啥比=傻逼
我日=我干=我赶=我靠=我草=我操=我肏
我的法克=WTF
人头狗=Hardcore KSer that doesn't give two shits about the rest of the team and will do anything for a kill.

 

Can I add these to my original post and add in meanings?

 

Go ahead.

 

Can i know my name in Chinese

 

Cao ni ma
10 thousand grass mud horses

 

Arrogant = 骄傲/嚣张/狂妄
Young Master = 少爷 （can be shortened to 少 if a last name is given)

 

草泥马/cao ni ma is an alpaca/'grass mud horse'
The 10,000 part comes when the author states '一万个草泥马奔跑' which is 10,000 alpacas/'grass mud horses'/

Spoiler: PG

F*** your mom

s galloped past.

 

I like how there are 8 people who are tsunderes. I'm not one of them of course (what are you looking at? b-baka~)

 

B-baka! ^.^

 

Not sure if you're talking about 小姐, which means "Miss" but it's also a PG version of "prostitute".
I remember reading a TL where the MC goes "Who're you calling Miss? You're a Miss!" because she had transmigrated into ancient times, into a young miss' body. XD

 

Why thanks for this, even though I speak Chinese I'm not up-to-date with slang, so I'm often left thinking 'wtf is this'. xD

Also:
- 木有 = 没有 (it's considered a cute way of saying 没有, so don't go trying to read into why there's a 'wood' character in there)
- 猪队友 (lit. pig-teammate) refers to a guy on your team that's causing you more trouble than your opponents (like the guy who makes loud noises and alerts all the enemies, or misfires a spell and kills you instead, or...)
- 二百五 = idiot / stupid (so don't translate it as 'two hundred and fifty')
- 沙发 can sometimes be seen in the comment sections of Chinese novels. It literally means Sofa, but is actually used as a homophone of 瞎发 (= post blindly) by people who just post that to get the first post.

 

Pffft~ Really?! What story was that? And I think the 小姐 version might be less common? Because you aren't going to mention prostitutes to kids... (I hope you don't.)

 

Thanks for reminding me. I think 木有 is from the Taiwanese pronounciation? I can't remember where I read that but it's up there along with 孩砸 and 儿砸
