Elder
āi dé
This is a common Mandarin Chinese transliteration for the male Portuguese/Latin name Élder or Elder.
Fraternity
University Brotherhood / House
xiōng dì huì
兄弟會 is the word in Chinese for a college fraternity or some other kind of fraternal order.
Literally, these characters mean “Elder brother younger brother association.” The last character can also be translated as a group, union, gathering, assembly, meeting, or conference.
Big Brother / Elder Brother
ā xiōng
akei
阿兄 is a Chinese and Japanese title for elder brother.
阿兄 is an honorific title, like saying, “my dear brother.” A nice way to pay tribute to your big brother or older brother on your wall.
Red Envelope
hóng bāo
紅包 literally means “red treasure.”
Depending on the context, it can also mean “money wrapped in red as a gift,” “a bonus payment,” “a kickback,” or “a bribe.”
However, most of the time, this is an innocent gift of money in a red envelope that is given from an elder relative to a youngster. This usually happens during the Chinese New Year. It can also happen in preparation for or during a wedding in China.
紅包 is pronounced “Hong Bao” (with an “oh” vowel sound on hong) in Mandarin Chinese. Filipino Chinese call it “Ang Pao.” There are a few other variations.
Senpai / The Elder or Master
先輩 is a Chinese, Japanese, and old Korean word or title that means elders, senior (at work or school), superior, older graduate, progenitor, or old-timer.
In American dojos, this is sometimes romanized as Sempai.
