How to say mummy in Chinese
This will be a short article. Mummy in Chinese is 木乃伊 = mu4 nai3 yi1 = wood/tree + /to be/thus/so/therefore/then/only/thereupon/ + corpse.
The first word sounds like moo, like a cow says moo.
The second word sounds like nigh, as in the time is nigh.
The third word sounds like the letter e.
So the words mean 'wood corpse', and it sounds a little bit like the English word mummy... moo nigh e.
