| 693123 | 2008-07-28 22:53:00 | It is pronounced as "Chin Dow (as in 'bow')" - (Not "King Dow") Qing Dao means "Green Island", on a sidenote. Cheers :) (Bob_doe_nz hates being called "Bob Doe") :p |

Cheers :) (Bob_doe_nz hates being called "Bob Doe") :p Is that "bow" as in bending forward from the waist, or as in bow tie, or as in dog sound or . . . ? ? ? ;) |

| 693126 | 2008-07-28 23:45:00 | It is bow tie in cantonese pronounciation but mandarin is slightly different . English don't have this pronounciation sound . The "AO" has a curved tone . |

| 693129 | 2008-07-29 01:33:00 | Is that "bow" as in bending forward from the waist, or as in bow tie, or as in dog sound or . . . ? ? ? ;) "Bow",as in "bow forward", not "bow wow" . I will record the pronunciation should there still be ambiguity . |
