偶.com Translation help

偶.com


I picked this up a few months ago on a drop even though I had no clue what it's best translation was.
mdbg.net translates it as "accidental/image/pair/mate"....that's quite a wide variety of translations.
To complicate it further,the first Google.cn and Baidu result is a games site.

Can one of you experts shed some light on that one? I would also like some translation feedback on 址.com if possible.Your help would be much appreciated.Thanks.

Re: 偶.com Translation help

Well to confuse the issue even more a Japanese translator gives...

even number, couple, man and wife, friend, same kind, doll, occasional, rare

Although my Japanese dictionary gives 偶数 --> 'An even number'

Re: 偶.com Translation help

Yes, the translations you got for 偶.com are all correct:

accidental/image/pair/mate
even number, couple, man and wife, friend, same kind, doll, occasional, rare

The meaning of this character depends on what word it combines with, there can be more than 20. The most obvious meaning when it stands alone would be accidental or doll. A fairly good single character domain.

址.com means address. Also a good one to have.

Re: 偶.com Translation help

This has different meaning in different context and in ancient and modern chinese.

1. in taiwanese Chinese, it means "I"

2. in special context, it means "pair", as in "even numbers", "couple"

3. in other special context, it means "doll"

an ok reg.

It is now used as "I" in mainland too, but limited to young generation and online discussion.
A taiwan or ancient style but quite funny and popular these few years.
