Antique Chinese statues |
Posted By: llidabomb Posted Date: Aug 10, 2009 (12:32 PM) |
Message The character "Qi" (aka breath) was written in simplified chinese. The characters on the statues were written in mostly a combination of simplified/traditional, but by identifing just 1 simplified character is enough to justify the statue's age. Bill the "expert" in chinese reading can't even detect a simple character such as "��"? Which makes me wonder if he can read chinese at all? Having a chinese wife that can read chinese does not count... Post a Response |
