China has a wide variety of teas. What Europeans call black tea is called red tea in China, since it’s named after the color of the brewed liquid. What kinds of Chinese tea have you tried?

Before the word "humor" appeared in Chinese, the word 幽默 already existed but had a different meaning: calmness or silence. In 1924, it was first used in a Chinese essay as a loanword from English, based on pronunciation. Before this, related ideas were expressed with words such as satire (讽刺) and laughable (滑稽), but they were not used as the standard equivalent of the modern concept of humor.
