usaRichard Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Hello allI have just registered and I hope to go to China in May 08 to meet my girlfriend for the first time. If all goes well perhaps we will make a big decision to spend our lives together. I can see there is a wealth of information here and I am trying to take it all in. Is there a list of acronyms so I know what people are talking about when they write SO or USC and others? ThanksRichard Link to comment
Dennis143 Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Welcome, Richard. If you look over the site real well you'll find a list of definitions. Sit back and enjoy the ride. TLA = Three Letter Acronym Link to comment

Guest Rob & Jin Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 welcome to CFL, never ever use SO to describe your loved one or you will make Mikey upset. Link to comment

Shenzhen K-1 Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Hello allI have just registered and I hope to go to China in May 08 to meet my girlfriend for the first time.

Is there a list of acronyms so I know what people are talking about when they write SO or USC and others? ThanksRichard The one that will get you a look is "SO"!! Significant other is an alright term but been bounced around for awhile shall we say?? When you are a K-1 what do you call her?? Fiance, too stiff....... The Mrs., Ok with me........... Honey, Oh brother................ My Chinese love toy?? I think not!! Wife, gets you in trouble until it happens........ Girlfriend, too weak a name to me, she is more then that...... I gave in too demand and now just call her feng, a chunk of her name, she has two first names, but enough for CFL!! Link to comment
jim_julian Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 I tried for a while to introduce the acronym FLS as in Friend, Lover, Spouse ... (or maybe it was FLW but S is gender agnostic) ... seemed to fit all. ... didn't catch on. I agree "SO" is pretty lame. Link to comment

Nothing stiff about being called fiancee, wife , love or even their real name, I think Link to comment
