A study on different English names of Qipao
摘要
Abstract
Chinese Qipao has kept almost unchanged. Although the style and workmanship have reformed many times, its form of one-piece dress and its Chinese name basically keep consistent. Its English names include Cheongsam, Qipao, Qi Pao, Chi-pao, Chirpaur, Mandarin gown and Chinese dress etc. So many English names may easily mislead western audiences and also are adverse to external communication of Chinese Qipao culture. After a brief introduction to the confused state of English names of Chopao from Chinese and foreign common consumers and academic research, this paper analyzes and compares the reasons for these English names and then proposes the most rational English name and the suggestion on unifying the English name according to current situations.关键词
