President’s Day in Chinese is zŏng tŏng jì niàn rì — or zŏng tŏng jié for short — here is why today is a great day become familiar with some translations
February 18, 2008 – 6:51 am
Today is the President’s Day holiday.
Markets are closed, but that doesn’t mean it is time to completely relax. You can take some time today to find some translations using the Primezero i18n Terminal.
Today you can learn how to say a few words for your next business meeting in Hong Kong or Shanghai. I’ll show you how: jump on the Primezero i18n Terminal and type away.
That’s it.
When you first arrive at the terminal home page, you will notice that there are no instructions yet. This is because I am still designing the terminals features around you.
I want this tool to be so easy to use that you can FIND the translation you need WHEN you need on your desktop or (soon) your mobile terminal.
Here are a few features some users have discovered:
- Smart Hanyu Pinyin Dictionary results
- Contemporary results, with names and places in the news
- Fast and clickable Chinese dictionary results
- Powerful Chinese Number Conversions (e.g., time, money, dates, fractions, etc)
- Some words that are ‘not found’ today are available the next day
