With China’s opening up, intercultural communication has become more and more frequent between Chinese and foreigners. Chinese has been a language widely used by a large amount of people in the world. What’s more, with the popularity of computer and Internet development, the popular online Chinese words are increasingly rich, because most youngsters on line like novelty and fresh characteristics. The appearance of Chinese popular words not only enriches our internet life but makes the language more touching and interesting. Although Chinese teachers call on everyone to learn Mandarin Chinese, these popular Chinese words are also important.

In China, you will often hear the word "萌 (méng)" used in daily life or while watching the news or TV. The word "萌 (méng)" means to sprout and is the symbol of spring. From this, the meaning of "萌 (méng)" has been extended and used to describe young girls who are attractive and give us the feeling of the coming of Spring.
But currently "萌 (méng)" is usually used to say "cute.”The term originated from the animation industry. In the animation industry it is used as a lingua franca to refer to young, innocent and beautiful little girls. But now this word has been expanded to describe all the beautiful and cute young girls and boys.
Now in the entertainment industry, the phrase "卖萌 (màiméng)" is usually used. It is a verb and means to "pretend to be cute" to attract the audienceand fans. The word "卖 (mài)" literally means to sell, but here it is the short form of "卖弄 (màīnong)" meaning to show off.
