牡蛎 Explanation: its official name in Mandarin is 牡蛎, which will be understood without confusion by people from anywhere in China. http://www.iciba.com/oyster http://dict.hjenglish.com/w/oyster -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 days13 hrs (2016-01-14 21:36:16 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- 上过9年学(初中毕业)的任何人,都应该都在学校的课本里学到过牡蛎这个名词,不管在中国的任何地方。而中国政府规定,每个人都必须读完9年级,这是每个公民的义务。因此,所有的中国人都应该认识这个词语。这个是全中国统一的名词,其他所有的说法,都是方言词汇。 |
