"Times of Yore" Reviews/Comments [ 1 ]
 Reviewed By: AmytheYu  On: October 17, 2003 10:04 CDT
Comment/Review:
I'm not a particularly big fan of Wufei, or Meiran, but I loved all your other fics, so I read this one too (and by all your other fics, I mean that I've read ALL your fics so far). I wanted to mention an inaccuracy in the fic. You might not be aware of it since it's probably not something that you'd learn from living in Sweden, but Chinese people don't change their last names when they get married. The full names sometimes have meanings, so if the last name was to be changed, the whole name would be off. Also, when calling someone Master *blank*, they would use the last names. Using given names (in this case, "Wufei") is very informal. Much like how honourifics would be added to Japanese last names to be polite (to someone older/in a position of authority), in Chinese, the last name (or full name) would be used.
