lǎo zi shì wǒ guó wěi dà de sī xiǎng jiā
老 子 是 我 国 伟 大 的 思 想 家
Lao zi is a great chinese thinker
xiǎo míng ：“‘ lǎo zi ’ shì wǒ guó wěi dà de sī xiǎng jiā 。”
小 明 ：“‘ 老 子 ’是 我 国 伟 大 的 思 想 家 。”
ā shuǎng ：“nǐ hái shì qiān xū diǎn bɑ ！
阿 爽 ：“你 还 是 谦 虚 点 吧！
Xiao ming:I am a Great thinker .
A shuang: You should be a little modest!
Do you know why it’s funny? Because the word 老子. This word has two pronunciations lǎo zi and lǎo zǐ. If we pronounce the second one lǎo zǐ that means a great chinese thinker. But if we pronounce the first one lǎo zi, which means I . That when you want to call yourself you can say lǎo zi. So when xiao ming said: “老子是我国伟大的思想家.”(lǎo zi shì wǒ guó wěi dà de sī xiǎng jiā).It sound that I am a great chinese thinker. Then his friend asked him to be a little modest. Actually he wanted to said Lao zi is a great chinese thinker.
