Over time, the term \u5c0f\u5f37 xi\u01ceo qi\u00e1ng has been widely adopted by Chinese speakers as a colloquial and humorous way to refer to cockroaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><ruby class=\"lang-zh-TW\"><span class=\"rb\">\u5abd\u5abd<\/span><rt>m\u0101ma<\/rt><span class=\"rb\">\u4e0d<\/span><rt>b\u00fa<\/rt><span class=\"rb\">\u5fc5\u9808<\/span><rt>b\u00ecx\u016b<\/rt><span class=\"rb\">\u505a\u98ef<\/span><rt>zu\u00f2f\u00e0n<\/rt><\/ruby><ruby class=\"lang-zh-CN\"><span class=\"rb\">\u5988\u5988<\/span><rt>m\u0101ma<\/rt><span class=\"rb\">\u4e0d<\/span><rt>b\u00fa<\/rt><span class=\"rb\">\u5fc5\u987b<\/span><rt>b\u00ecx\u016b<\/rt><span class=\"rb\">\u505a\u996d<\/span><rt>zu\u00f2f\u00e0n<\/rt><\/ruby> \u274c<br>Mom doesn&#8217;t have to cook.<br>(The negation of \u5fc5\u9808 b\u00ecx\u016b is &#8220;\u4e0d\u9700\u8981 b\u00f9 x\u016by\u00e0o,&#8221; not &#8220;\u4e0d\u5fc5\u9808 b\u00fa b\u00ecx\u016b &#8220;)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><ruby class=\"lang-zh-TW\"><span class=\"rb\">\u5abd\u5abd<\/span><rt>m\u0101ma<\/rt><span class=\"rb\">\u4e0d<\/span><rt>b\u00f9<\/rt><span class=\"rb\">\u9700\u8981<\/span><rt>x\u016by\u00e0o<\/rt><span class=\"rb\">\u505a\u98ef<\/span><rt>zu\u00f2f\u00e0n<\/rt><\/ruby><ruby class=\"lang-zh-CN\"><span class=\"rb\">\u5988\u5988<\/span><rt>m\u0101ma<\/rt><span class=\"rb\">\u4e0d<\/span><rt>b\u00f9<\/rt><span class=\"rb\">\u9700\u8981<\/span><rt>x\u016by\u00e0o<\/rt><span class=\"rb\">\u505a\u996d<\/span><rt>zu\u00f2f\u00e0n<\/rt><\/ruby> \u2705<br>Mom doesn&#8217;t need to cook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%E4%B8%80%E5%AE%9A_yiding\"><\/span><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#b7839f\" class=\"has-inline-color\">\u4e00\u5b9a y\u00edd\u00ecng<\/mark><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\u4e00\u5b9a y\u00edd\u00ecng can be translated as &#8220;must,&#8221; &#8220;necessarily&#8221;or &#8220;certainly.&#8221; It expresses a high degree of certainty or assurance.
