posting and commenting on Chinese microblog and BBS services Explanation: Chinese use BBS-like services such as Tianya much more than westerners, and many like to compare Sina Weibo to Twitter. In fact, Sina Weibo is used for micro-blogging and news much more than Twitter, which is why avoiding direct comparisons to Twitter should be avoided. The number of Chinese now using Sina Weibo is more than 200M. Example sentence(s):

writing on Weibo, blogs and forums Explanation: Weibo is sufficiently well-known in Chinese circles that you can use it like "Twitter". 不太清楚撰写和评论有什么差别，是主贴和跟帖吗？一般在英文里我们不分。 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 15 hrs (2012-10-26 23:28:23 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- @Pierrick - I used to recommend using "tweet" for Weibo, and still would in certain contexts, but I think Weibo is just about well enough known that we can use the word directly. Whether it will turn into a verb, I don't know |
