I found that Zoey had posted many popular words here. However, they were all selected by the media. I have a question: what are the most popular in your eyes, my friends? I read an article published on the website of CRI. They selected some word regarded as the popular words in foreigners' eyes in 2007. Do you know them?

Wow, foreigners even know 哇噻. Great! No. 21 was derived from a very interesting skit performed by Zhao Benshan. I wonder if you have heard of 严重同意 (Yan 2 Zhong 4 Tong 2 Yi 4). It is also a popular word.
