Meanings of Chinese Cubes

[guysensei1]

Just wondering...is there such thing as a Japanese cube? I would like to see translations for one of them.

No Japanese cubes have had names that weren't already translated to english.

Here's a website with the actual characters of the Moyu cubes: http://ukcubestore.com/moyu.html
Just with the pinyin we don't actually know what it means.
Apparently the "Chuang" in Aochuang means "create" or "initiate". Chuang can also mean as a noun, "cut" or "injury". Ao we already know means proud.

Why is there still a debate about what AoChuang means? Ao means proud,. Chuang means creation (Yes I am 100% certain it's the correct chuang). Proud creation. Also... The chinese characters are featured on the box

Yup, that's exactly where I've been going to find the actual characters. Thanks anyway...

(My Chinese is good enough to the point that I know Aochuang doesn't mean 'proud bed!' Hehe, pinyin can be misleading sometimes...)

Yeah, maybe we should include tones to make distinctions... I know not everyone can read Chinese.

KongShou might know some of these (he runs ukcubestore).

LanLan（蓝蓝）.The pinyin "Lan" in chinese is the word "blue".

What about LanLan?

Well,i'm a Chinese but i don't think i can explain the exactly meaning of these names in english.

 

[liuyue]

And i don't think "傲（Ao）" simply means proud, it might also means cool/brave/power etc..

颠马 (Dianma) literally means 'jolt (the) horse.' Or something similar.

Not 'high cloud' but 'ice cloud,' or possibly 'approaching cloud.'

As a native speaker, I literally don't konw what 颠马 means as a word. For me it's more like "the lunatic horse", but I know it's not what it suppose to mean.

Not 'high cloud' but 'ice cloud,' or possibly 'approaching cloud.'

I'm sure that the 凌 here is not "ice". Actually 凌云 is from a Chinese phrase 凌云壮志 which means the ambition to reach the cloud. So 凌云 here means "reach the cloud".

Lunhui - 轮回 - means 'recur.'

 

[guysensei1]

Lunhui - 轮回 - means 'recur.'
