USC Suspended a Prof. For Saying a Chinese Word That Sounds Like a Racial Slur
- lambdatronics 6y agoWell, now I know what that word I kept hearing in China was...
- thdc 6y agoExtreme overreaction in my opinion, although "nega" is kind of a mispronunciation as I assume he meant 那个 (na ge). A little related, but 不是 (bu shi) sounds like bullshit with the right pronunciation, and both phrases/words can be used in similar situations.
- srtjstjsj 6y agoIt's not a mispronunciation; it's a regional variation.
