Here's a pronunciation Explanation: Well, 锥 (Zhuī) is an awl "a small pointed tool used for piercing holes, esp. in leather." and 思 (Sī) means "thought, think." It's not much but maybe it'll mean something to you in the context of your translation. Pronunciation: Zhuī Sī (jway - sis {without the last "s" in "sis"} |

peer agreement (net): +2Zhui Si Explanation: In pinyin this is "Zhui Si" (both first tone), and I suppose could be taken to mean "penetrating thoughts" - "zhui" means awl as a noun, or to drill as a verb. I looked up "Zhui Si" in simplified characters using Google and Baidu, but couldn't find anything pertaining to a company. Some guy uses it as his blog name. |
