Default Re: What is the Name our Moon?

Note TerranC's location, or rather former location... South Korea. A quick google reveals that Daal is indeed the Korean word for 'Moon'.

Searching around a bit I've found too many names for the Moon in Chinese to be certain which one is the right one. It's called by lots of poetic names, like the name of the Moon Goddess, Chang E, or 'Toad Hall', Chan Gong, because of a folk-legend about it being a place where toads live. Apparently the 'generic' name is Yue but I'm just not certain. And anyway, Chinese uses the same small group of syllables (20 or so) to represent several thousand characters so in truth the name of the Moon in Chinese is a character which we cannot reproduce here without some special code. Does this BB system support Chinese?
