[quote=LEARNCHINESEZHANG,370005]月光族 (yuè guāng zú) Moonlight group Recently, 月光族(yuè guāng zú) has become popular in China. 月光(yuè guāng) actually means "moonlight." But here it has a totally different meaning. 光(guāng) means "running out" here rather than "light." 月光族(yuè guāng zú) refers to a group of people having the following features: They are young, eager to follow the trend and buy fashionable items. They always run out of their salaries at the end of month and hold the principle of "how much earned, how much spent." Thus, they got their special name: 月光族(yuè guāng zú) a group of young people that intend to spend all of their salaries at the end of every month. e.g. 他很早就成为了月光族的一员。 (tā hěn zăo jiù chéngwéi le yuè guāng zú de yīyuán.) He joined the moonlight group at an early age. Learn more Chinese about these? please visit: http://www.echineselearning.com/free-trial/index.html?ecl=ptEEEEEEtr070301,hope I helped you! [/quote]
