89: Confucius Mar 7, 2015
Often when words are transcribed by people, familiar or not, with a
language, the new word will not be exactly the same as it was in its
original language. For example, the word in Mandarin for 'New York' is a
fairly similar, 'NiuYue', but Confucius' name was not 'Confucius', as
we call him, but 'K'ung Fu-tzu' which means 'master Kung'.
