Over the years, people have invented various ways to write Chinese words using letters. These transliteration systems include Yale, Wade-Giles, GR, and pinyin. Pinyin is the official alphabetical system used in mainland China, and it's taught to schoolchildren there (but most people are more comfortable using Chinese characters, and many would be hard-pressed to write even their own names in pinyin).

Vertigo has a very specific meaning to a health care practitioner, and should only be used to describe the sensation that you are spinning or that the world is spinning. Usually, when a person has only an inner ear problem, they are considered to have a very good prognosis. Not all people fully recover from an inner ear problem, because there has been damage to the ear structures, but almost all make a very good recovery. See similar questions...

By far the most often used language in the U.S. is Spanish, but the courts require dozens of other languages as well. Frequency of use of a given language in a given area naturally varies in proportion to the population that speaks that language. In population centers like New York City, interpreters of perhaps a dozen different languages are needed daily. In the federal court in Manhattan, where this writer works, Spanish accounts for about 70% of our case load. See similar questions...

When we see appended to the genus or species name some English words (not Latin) with single quotes around them as in Genus species 'English Words' it tells us that the plant is a named hybrid or cultivar (cv.). For these names Latin is not allowable. Sometimes they are formally described by botanists in prestigious journals (e.g. Tavarorbea 'Red Leopard' by Dr. See similar questions...

You will be met with success. Most often ladies underestimate their English ability. Also most will have one or more girlfriends who will translate for them. You may of course follow up with a translated email. But it is a good idea not to rely exclusively on emails. Too many men are foregoing paper letters for emails. Yet the success rate for men has not improved in the last few years as a result of emails. Remember an old fashioned letter is a special event in a ladies life. See similar questions...

No, that's not necessary. Your own language is OK. However, writing the letters in English speeds up the procedures because all communications ("comm") will be translated into English by the CoS---to send them "uplines". Money is very important to this "church", so important that "high and mighty" cult members have to decide what must be done if someone want it back. You can be sure that your demands will generate quite a lot of internal comm, paperwork and "entheta". See similar questions...

You can't. Japanese is a completely different language with no similarities to English. The grammar, alphabet, vocabulary, etc. is all different. Many people think an online translator, like BabelFish, will do the trick. Truth is, machine translations such as that make absolutely no sense. The only way to "convert" English to Japanese, or visa versa, is to be fluent in both languages and translate between the two (not an easy task) or find someone to do it for you.

It's one of my strange romanizing conventions. For some songs, if something is written in katakana, I type it in caps. Also, if the katakana spells out an English word, I usually (but not always) write out the English equivalent. Er, I skipped it to read manga? Remember, I've never taken a formal Japanese course, so the spacing in my romanizations are all in my head. Feel free to make the spacing however you like if it makes it easier for you to read.

It depends on the size of the stone that you order. The same amount of lettering, as well as a design, will not fit on a small stone that a 12 x 16 piece of stone can accept. At SayItInStone we try to accommodate our customers' desires and can usually adjust something (either the size of the design or the size of the lettering). As a safe estimate, we will include anywhere from 12 to 30 letters. See similar questions...

Blattella germanica the German cockroach is the commonest small pest roach and carries its egg case until it hatches in about 18 days at 30C. At hatching the ootheca is on the female or dropped at random wherever she is at the time. Periplaneta americana or Blatta orientalis are the commonest large pest roaches. They carry their egg case for a few days and then deposit it in a corner or crevice, cementing it there with local debris and saliva. See similar questions...
