From clever wordplay and internet slang to coded numbers and viral expressions, China Online offers a fascinating look at the unique language created by China's online communities. Author and translator Veronique Michel introduces readers to the humor, creativity and cultural trends that shape the way millions of young Chinese communicate today.
Discover the distinctive online "tribes" that emerged through China's internet culture, from the "Moonlight Tribe" and the "Ant Tribe" to the "Diamond Bachelors" and many others. Along the way you'll learn how Chinese internet users combine puns, abbreviations, multiple languages and ingenious number codes to communicate quickly and creatively.
Part language guide, part cultural exploration, China Online provides an entertaining introduction to the ever-evolving world of contemporary Chinese internet culture.
