They have alot of differents name for units depending on which commentators u listen to. All worker units are generally called Nong Minn, which means farmers/peons/peasants. + Show Spoiler + [Unit/Spell names} [Chinese names/pronounciations] [literal meaning] Protoss Shen Zhu Shen means divine being as in gods, angels, spirits stuff like that. Zhu means tribe or race. so literal translation would the God tribes, the god race or angel tribes etc etc + Show Spoiler + Zealot Kwang Tuu Fanatical disciples/zealots Dragoon Loong Qi Dragon riders Dark Templars Yiing Dao Invisible/hidden blades High Templars Dian Bing Storm troopers/soldiers Archons Bai Qiu White balls Dark Archons Hoong Qiu Red balls Shuttle Yun Shu Ji Transport craft Reavers Jing Jia Chong Golden insects/worms Observers Ding Daang something to do with Doraemon i guess or the sound they make when u select them, not quite sure :p Carriers Hang Muu Naval flagships, which usually are carriers Arbiters Zhong Chai Zhe Heavy scholars, not quite sure on this one Corsairs Hai Dao Chuan Pirate's ship Psi Storms Dian Electrics/storms, usually they say it Faang Dian, which literally means unleash storms. Maelstrom Zhen Dong Stun freeze/frozen, word by word translation Mind Control Nao Koong Brain control Recall Chuan Soong Teleports Stasis Field Bing Doong Ice freeze/frozen Haven't heard any of the chinese commentators says anything about scouts before, i don't watch enough chinese commentaries :p Terran Ren Zhu Means human race obviously. + Show Spoiler + Marines Jii Qiang Bing Machine gun soldiers/troopers Medics Mei mei Chicks Siege Tanks Taank keh Tankuh Tankuh! Vulture Lei Cher Mine Cars Goliath Jii Xie Ren Robots/Mechanical human Wraiths Yiing Fei Invisible/hidden flyers or planes Battle Cruisers Da Jian Big arrows, or big ships Science Vessels Ker Jii Qiu Techno ball EMP Shockwave Dian daan Electric bombs not quite sure what they call firebats or ghost yet, i'll update once i find out Zerg Chong Zhu Insects/worms tribes or race + Show Spoiler + Zergling Xiao Gou Small dogs Overlord Da nao, or Jian zhu Big brains, or jian zhu which means buildings, so it kinda means flying buildings? Hydralisk Chi serr (Tough to pronounce with english letters) Spike/thorn snakes Lurkers Dii Chi (same thing : /) Ground spike/thorn Mutalisk Fei loong Flying Dragons Devourers/Guardians Daa Loong Big Dragons Scourge Zhi Saa ji Suicide plane Ultralisks Da Xiang Elephants thats it for now, i'll update if i find more. A few corrections Mei Mei ( Medic ) - Little sister/Young girl Lei Cher ( Vulture ) - Lightning car Zhi Saa Ji ( Scourge ) - Suicidal chicken The rest are pretty accurate [: | ||
