Chinglish lesson – 巴 Posted on November 15, 2014 by Ray 7 Today’s Chinglish comes with a free short lesson. The character 巴 “ba” is often used in phonetic translations. It can stand for “bar” (酒吧 jiuba – alcohol bar) as well as “bus” (巴士 bashi – bus, simply phonetically) So you see, honest mistake here.
