Do you know that there are many vegetarians in Taiwan? This is because a lot of Taiwanese people follow Buddhist or Taoist beliefs, which promote a vegetarian lifestyle as a way to show compassion for all living beings. Additionally, many Taiwanese people believe in the concept of 殺生shāshēng造孽zàoniè杀生shāshēng造孽zàoniè, which means “killing creates calamity”. This phrase highlights the idea that harming others, including animals, can have negative consequences for oneself. Therefore, many Taiwanese people choose to abstain from eating meat.”

Whenever I ask foreigners, "Do you speak Chinese?" they often reply, "a little bit" (yì diǎn diǎn). That inspired me to create this website and translate "yì diǎn diǎn" into the quirky and fun "One Dot Dot."

It’s also a reminder that learning Chinese is a journey, and progress happens one step at a time. By learning just a little bit every day, you’ll go far!
