  • chained_bear commented on the word hai gui

    "People like Zhang were supposed to be different: he's what Chinese call a hai gui—"sea turtle"—referring to someone who has lived overseas. (The phrase is a pun on haiwai guilai, meaning "returned from overseas.")"

    —Melinda Liu and Duncan Hewitt, "Rise of the Sea Turtles," Newsweek, August 18/August 25, 2008.
