Catch Phrase| 武力值(wǔlìzhí)

Writer:   | Editor: Stephanie Yang  | From:  | Updated: 2017-08-28

Meaning:

“武力” means “force,” and “值” means “value.” This term, used by Chinese gamers, refers to the fighting capabilities of certain roles in games. It’s also used jokingly to refer to the fighting skills of people in real life. As if rated by a scale, those who have high “force values” are skillful fighters.

Example:

A: 像我这样武力值不高的人,遇到打劫的只能跑了。

Xiàng wǒ zhèyàng wǔlìzhí bù gāo de rén, yùdào dǎjié de zhǐnéng pǎo le。

For someone who cannot fight like me, running is the best tactic when being robbed.

B: 最重要是提高警惕,不要去人少的地方。

Zuì zhòngyào shì tígāo jǐngtì, bùyào qù rénshǎo de dìfāng。

The important thing is to be alert and stay away from deserted places where few people are around.
