Not quite: - B- in Chinese is unvoiced, whereas it's voiced in English - the -ing in Chinese and English are pronounced slightly differently - Bing in English is usually inflected somewhere between 1st and 4th tone -- 病, properly pronounced, has a much more noticeable downward pitch slide It's fair to say though that if you say 'Bing' when you mean 病, a Mandarin speaker will probably understand you.
