Hi, I have a question on pronunciations of words in different cultures. For example, an English name, whose meaning is good, but has its pronunciation sounding like a bad word in Chinese. Or a Korean word sounds bad when its pronunciation associates with a bad English word, and so on... Except you understand all the languages existed in the world, you would never know that the name you choose for your child may sound bad for a person who comes from a certain country. My questions are:
1. If you do not know that there are bad meanings associated with the sounds of words in other languages, then you are free from being affected on?
2. If you incorporate some auspicious Chinese characters into your home decoration without understanding their meanings, it is useless?
Thank you.

User's Comments I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate you for your Applying Feng-Shui course and especially the Flying stars course. Your courses were easy to understand, clear, precise and very imaging. I will strongly recommend the Flying Stars course for those who want to have a better knowledge on the Flying stars. I almost finish my course. I am doing the exercice on the case studies. As soon I finish, I will send you my home work for your appreciation. I am interested in having more Feng-Shui courses with your school." Best regards, David Tan |
