Jiong
I learned my first Chinese “slang” character, for lack of a better term. Apparently, this is around a year or two old. Amazingly, it’s already part of my input method on my PC at work (it’s not on my Mac). Anyway, the character is “Jiong” (tone 3). It means something of a cross between unhappy and embarrassed. Notice the character below. All of the strokes are “legal”, for lack of a better term, Chinese strokes used for writing the script.

(above) Miss Li will make you feel “jiong”.
