Ni-hao is chinese for hello...since Firefly is east meets west we sometimes take asian stuff and make it our own. Don't think it was used in the series, but I'm too tired to think clearly

谢谢 , Wishy. (Copied & pasted the Manderin version uv 'thank you'. It tranzlates to 'thank thank')

I've been told that Chinese is dependent on tone rather than fonemez. But now I'm wondering if maybe thats not entirely true.

John Huntsman was on The Colbert Report this week and he spoke a little chinese and it sounded like there wuz quite a lot uv fonetic variety.

Anybody know a website that haz chinese tranzlation with sound? It may be that it can be spelled with Nooalf.

Welcome Home Joe!

This was my first Firefly board. I lurked in 2002 and signed up in 2003. If you look on the back of the Documentary DVD cover I am the last pic wearing orange. I was lucky enugh to be on the set of Serenity, scene selection 4 after Jayne says,"Let's be bad guys." Pause it and do a frame by frame. The red head as Mal and Zoe enter is me.

There are 3 Firefly companions Still Flying is the most recent. There are 4 comic books. Better Days Vol 2. has a story by Patton Oswalt about Wash called Float Out.

I recommend attending conventions to meet the cast. Fortunately they're all working so less and less are doing conventions but they do when they can.

We have the best cast in the 'verse.

A Joe a chara,
I'm afraid I'm not the genuine article because it is only my inner being that is Irish. I'm American, was born in the same city I live in, but I've loved all things Irish since I was 12 and am a trad singer, meaning I sing Irish songs. I would love to be able to speak Irish but I'm dreadful at learning languages, vocabulary and stock phrases are okay but once I hit grammer I hit a wall. I had to take Spanish in high school and university and don't remember much of it, even though that wasn't so very long ago. I'd be better with Irish if I had some handsome man living next door to teach me, :)) for now though I can say a few things which is better than nothing. There are still people in Eire who speak good Irish. Kids have to do it in school but its not really a serious part of the coriculum. And so most people don't have a good knowledge of it. There are areas, in the south and west and up Donegal way where it is spoken more, fortunately.

Like me, you probably havent tried hard enuf. I tried to learn Spanish, but didn't stick with it very long. Learning thingz takes persistence.

I'm working on a prototype uv that spike that they use to learn stuff in the Matrix, but so far all it duz iz kill you.
