Kristan from Canada (!) requested the Chinese translation for “honesty” as in “people who are brutally honest get more satisfaction out of the brutality than out of the honesty”…  Richard J. Needham, humor columnist.

…  is that a great quote or what??…  and it fits folks like Simon Cowell (American Idol) and that other British judge (America’s Got Talent) to a “T”…  lol (and yes, I do like me some reality shows…  haha).

…  where essentially the first character means “honest” and the second character is one of those characters that typically gets combined with others for it to make sense, but it can insinuate “real” (i.e. shi2 zai4).

Want to see these characters embroidered on a women’s or unisex t-shirt?  Or on a women’s or unisex tank top?  Click the appropriate preceding link.  Got a translation request of your own?  Contact me!
