What does shi mean?

Answer 1

Shi means ten in Chinese.

Answer 2

shi 4 ju 10

Answer 3

The word "Shi'a" actually comes from "Shi'at al- Ali" meaning "the party of Ali". This was then shortened to "Shi'a" over the years. It does not mean that they are following a part of Islam. It simply traces back to whome they were supporting in term of the caliphate after the Prophet (SAW). I thought the question asked for the LITERAL meaning of the word- If you want to make up your own meanings of things, perhaps you should study English Literature where your personal interpretations carry less significance to the people around you.

Answer 4

Shi can be 4 in Japanese, but it also means "death".
That's why it's considered impolite in Japan
to give a gift of 4 of the same item.
Japanese usually use "yon" instead of "shi".

Answer 5

Shi can mean a lot of things in Chinese. Among others:
时 = 'shi' for "time"
是 = 'shi' for "yes/correct/right"
十 = 'shi' for "ten/10"
世 = 'shi' for "world"

Answer 6

Either mention the specific language you're asking about or quit asking all together. We're not mind readers.
You also should just bunch your questions together. It's a hell of a lot faster.

Answer 7

That is "four" in Japanese.
