Re: [Ask ] Why do we have English name?
here I've got one thing to share .
When we translate westerners' names , we still put their first name and
last name in the same position, whereas we don't treat our name in the same
way.
like michael jordan>麥可橋單
but we translate our name into English like 陳OO>OO Chen?
It's not fair, isn't it? @@
