Academic explanation for rhyming fillers with irrelevant meaning in doggerel @DonKirkby Whoa! You blew my mind! Also money => "bread and honey" => bread. I'm wondering if this question (which is awesome) should be cleaned up and migrated to linguistics.SE |

Academic explanation for rhyming fillers with irrelevant meaning in doggerel @JamesJiao In Cockney rhyming slang, AFAIU, the apples and pears that you mention will even drop out in favor of the non-rhyming word, to become "I'm going up the apples"! |

Dog radical (犭) for non-Han ethnic groups Maybe I'm completely wrong, but I thought 犭 has to do with dog just like 氵 has to do with water, 灬 has to do with fire or 忄 has to do with heart. It's not that the character takes on the full property of that radical, but there's some of that meaning in the character. |

Dog radical (犭) for non-Han ethnic groups this is pretty helpful. thanks. Looks like it was the PRC not the KMT that started changing the ethnic characters. |

Should the temporal indicators be in a certain order? @JamesJiao I'm not sure what you mean. All I'm saying is that 午饭 is a noun (and the object of the sentence) not a temporal indicator. The grammar is fine. |
