The other day my classmate dined out with her little sister. The sister suddenly asked, “What does ML mean, Sis?” My classmate was shocked, staring at her sister: She is only 11 years old! My classmate struggled for a while and decided to tell her the truth, though she was very embarrassed, “It means ‘making love’.” The sister then pointed at the bottle, “Then what does 250 ML mean?”
[Note: Yes, among Chinese young people, “ML” is short for “Make Love”. This ancronym is an exception though. Usually, Chinese people use the first letters of the Pinyin as acronyms for Chinese words, such as SB and NB. ]
Haha China
