It is "后脑勺头发" in Chinese. Explanation: The transliteration(pinyin) for "后脑勺头发" is hou(4)nao(3)shao(2)tou(2)fa(4). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-07-16 02:54:41 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- P.S. You may choose the GB 2312 to read the Chinese characters above. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-07-16 02:59:47 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- P.S.\"后脑勺头发\"[hou(4)nao(3)shao(2)tou(2)fa(4)] refers to \"the shape of the hair on the back of men\'s head.(after a haircut)\". So, I am sure that\'s what you are looking for. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-07-16 23:54:47 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Or, if you want to emphasize the action of \"haircut\", you may add \"刚剃的(gang1 ti4 de0)\" before \"后脑勺头发\". So, \"tchas\" could also be \"\"刚剃的后脑勺头发\"[gang(1)ti(4)de(0)hou(4)nao(3)shao(2)tou(2)fa(4)] in Chinese.This is a bit too long, that\'s why I prefer my first answer. Enjoy! |

ti(4) guo(4) de hou(4) nao(3)shao(2) Explanation: 玞筁福 (please view in Big5). Literal translation of each character: "shave-(perfect tense marker)-(predicative marker)-back-head. I wonder if "tchas" is related to "zha (错)" in Chinese. "Zha(1)" means the broken bits or the stubs after shaving. |
