Here is some other parts of things i would like to say, ManU is smart enough to exploit the Asia market especially China market.. The below is the link to ManU fb pages which basically wished everyone happy cny and is written in Mandarin.. And other player record a video said happy cny in chinese also.. I was hoping spurs did the same but in the end........... lol

Happy New Year

shin ni how?

dunno, i think that's what this guy at work said today. something along the lines of new greeting of something? the something i guess being the year in this case.

of course, when he was explaining which of the 12 animals it was, everyone in the office started to put on their best talking out of sync, kung fu stance, kicking the air type goings on poses. mini fights broke out across the whole floor. hahahaha. classic! nothing got smashed though.

amyway yeah, at lunch, he was muttering something aboot in another few years time, it's his responsibility to hand out the cards at the family mass? dunno, it was hard to concentrate, the morning's new years bruce lee re-enactments had spilled into lunch lol!

and too right and a big thumbs up ye year of the dragon!

shin ni how?

@innteck it was the same sound that he uses for hello with 'shin' in front of it. dunno mate, this 'knee how' (english), seems quite useful.

'hello' for starters.

add a 'my yeay' (english) to the end of it and it changes into 'how are you?' 'knee who my yeay'

i don't get it myself but by it seems that by now adding 'shin' (english) to the 'knee how' at the beginning, changes it again into something different - 'hello new year' 'shin knee how'

hello isn't the word i would use for this 'knee how' part though eh. it would be more like 'to greet' or 'to present' someone or something upon speaking.

he isn't in the office again until next monday, jammy git, although i suppose i wasn't in the office at the end of my year either, but i'll ask him to explain the ways of 'knee how', and see what he says.

but hey, i speak in japanese with him so it's a bit random as to what i hear in his chinese/japanese, and interpret as my japanese/english lol!

but maybe i think i should learn a little aboot the ways of this here 'knee how'.
