常說語(2)：just for fun----好久不見(Long Time No See)

Hi, everybody! long time no see!(好久不見)。Nowadays in English-speaking countries, people sometimes say "long time no see" to their friends whom they haven't seen for a long time. Many believe that it is from Chinese greeting saying「好久不見」，though British and World English--Oxford Dictionary says this expression is "in humorous imitation of broken English spoken by an American Indian."  好久不見--好(very)久(long)不(no, not)見(see)----好(hauˇ)久(jiouˇ)不(buˋ)見(jianˋ)----hauˇ-jiouˇ-buˋ-jianˋ(when saying this, change the buˋ to buˊ.)--好久不見。By the way, as for this「好」，you  may know that Michael Jackson once sang "The girl is so dangerous," this Chinese character, however, says  girl (女子) is good (好)。You write and juxtapose the two Chinese characters 「女子」， which mean "girl, woman, lady,"， then what you  see is 「好」--good. Try to remember: 女子is 好， 好 is 女子。
