Hehehe thanks for making a Good piece here, i just want to ask, where's ur sources? mmm and i really like hearing you say their whole name many times, makes it easier to "learn" Chinese ^^
I liked that you kept the title as the pinyin though, I've always been bothered by the older transliteration systems that turned everything into a "ch"
Is this an actaul picture of her? Interesting that she is using a western sword and not a chinese one. I am dieing to know what kinds of weapons they used and what their combat methods were, and how it compared to western pirates in the Carribean - ofc this is much later than Carribean golden age of piracy.
I'd be very surprised if that's a real picture of her. When you look in books and all over the web, there are one or two images of her. This was the 1800's. I wouldn't bet my life on that being the actual picture.
I Sao can be translated as #1 Sister-in-law. 一 (Yī) of course is One and 嫂 (Sǎo) means elder brother's wife or sister-in-law. Èr Sǎo (二嫂) would mean second brother's wife.
@@ChinaHistoryPodcast I was slightly confused because I am used to hearing Da Sao, not Yi sao. Thanks for the heads up man! I only watched 2 videos, but I love your channel, and its content.

Recommend you tag this Cheng I Sao, as there is a popular video on this topic right now on Extra Credits
Done! Thanks Johny. I didn't even know you could add tags to episodes....Thanks for helping out this technical idiot.

Pinyin always worked for me. Learners of Chinese tend to be quite loyal to their Romanization system.

The image is fan art of Crystal Yu playing Zeng Yi Sao in the Dr. Who franchise.

Hi Rösternas, This was from too long ago and I usually don't save my notes and outlines. Sorry about that.
Is the I SAO sister in law?
I Sao can be translated as #1 Sister-in-law. 一 (Yī) of course is One and 嫂 (Sǎo) means elder brother's wife or sister-in-law. Èr Sǎo (二嫂) would mean second brother's wife.
