emmm... I wonder what you think after reading this Double Eleven poster made by Ayan.
In recent years, Double Eleven has become a Shopping Carnival, and almost no one remembers it was derived from singles’Day (Single’s Day).
But at this time of year, we single dogs are always pulled out and abused. On this day when we should have been cared for the whole world, Ayan felt that he was full of hurt and even went to the supermarket to buy a snack -
Wait a minute! What is the English in the upper left corner of
?
Single dog? !
Sorry, you don’t deserve to laugh at me as a single person who doesn’t understand foreign languages.
As a senior single dog, Ayan needs to talk about the official usage of the international term " single dog " in various countries on this special day.
Before calling yourself a single dog, I suggest you think about it carefully. Are you sure you have the same status as Corgi?
points the key points! The word "single dog" in English is not "single dog", just like the Wall Street Journal did not literally translate "Double Eleven" into "double eleven", "Singles' Day" is the correct usage of .
In English, it refers to single people. The most commonly used word single in Singles’Day. It has no distinction between men and women and is also most widely used in daily life. For example, singles bar (single bar) often appears in the English-speaking areas of North America.
In English, single men are called bachelor, while single women are bachelorette. As for singleness, it can be summarized as bachelorhood.
highlights the key points!
spinster (unmarried woman, old virgin) Because there is a clear gender discriminatory meaning, be careful when using it.
Some people also translate the leftover girl as leftover girl8l based on the context.
in short, it still doesn’t sound nice, so why not use words like single lady to describe single lady? Maybe you will be single in the next second.
You may ask: Why is "solo" not mentioned in English? Isn’t “maternal solo” often mentioned in Korean drama ?
Korean drama " This is the first time in this life " The heroine of the maternal and fetal single
In fact, solo itself does not have the meaning of "single", and "maternal and fetal solo" is just a product of "Koreanization". When
solo was used as a noun, it only means "solar, solo (song), solo (song), and solo performance", which is also the first widely recognized meaning when it landed in Korea.
When Korean singer debuted, they were divided into two forms: combination and single, and single form was called solo. For example, "National Sister" IU is one of the most famous solo female singers.
In addition, some localized words have appeared in South Korea, and they have divided several levels according to the "dog age" and "injury degree" of "single dogs", which is simply "crazy"...
단신: Single
This is the word "single" in "모태단신 (maternal single)" that people often hear.
솔로: solo
Just now, I have explained solo's "going to the countryside and following the customs" in Korean. I have to praise the Korean nation's powerful ability to "use it for oneself".
싱글 멍멝이: Single wang
reveals a hint of pity in the ridicule...
싱글개: Single wang
In Korea, where the status of dogs is also low, 싱글개 is better used when making fun of yourself. When used on others, "개 (dog)" is a swear word.
The country with the most single temperament must be the neon country that brings the "home" culture and "sexual cold" temperament to the extreme.So how do those single cat slaves in Japan call themselves?

The word allein is more well known, which means alone, lonely . If you have to add a metaphorical entity to the end, the Germans chose wolf (wolf), so "single dog" can also be called "einsamer wolf" (lonely wolf).
However, as told in a recent Korean drama "The Society of Forced Love", as a solo who enjoys a single life, you don't need to be forced to fall in love under the public opinion of the outside world.
Perhaps, love is a sweet addition to most people. But being single is not a sin. Since love is not a necessity for your life, then go and find a candy that attracts you more than love~
Finally, share it with everyone Wikipedia's explanation of "Double Eleven" -
