Did you know?
Many people say that Chinese is hideously hard to learn for Europeans, but sometimes Chinese is closer to English than on first glance.
Take for instance the name "Beijing", meaning "northern capital" in Chinese. According to Bosat Man, however, Bei and -jing actually have distant relatives in European languages.
The oldest form of the character bei ("north") depicts two men standing back to back, because north was the direction to which one turned his back because it was cold. Man says that it was pronounced bak and is actually a distant relative of the English "back" and German "backe". The ancient character for -jing ("capital") meant "hill", and was prounced kljiang. Man says it's certainly related to the English word "hill", which is descended from the Indo-European root word kel ("to rise").
Maybe it is as Confucius said, "All men within the four seas are brothers."
