[quote=JIMMYB,435051]Guilo isn't a good word. It is "鬼佬" in Chinese. But you may understand why Chinese people call foreigners as 鬼佬 after you learn about the origin of this word. According to wiki, Guilo (鬼佬) appeared when foreign troops invaded China in the 19th century. I just translated from the Wiki Chinese version. Another word is 洋鬼子(Yang Gui Zi). Most foreigners don't like it either. 大鼻子 sounds lovely to me. I think it is much better than 鬼佬 and 洋鬼子. Most westerners have big noses. That's why Chinese people call them 大鼻子.[/quote]
