Top 10 Words of the Year

(Global Times)    14:41, December 10, 2018

Chinese magazine Yao Wen Jiao Zi (literally meaning "Biting Words") on Wednesday released the Top 10 Words of the Year on social media.

A community of shared future

The phrase originates from the term "a community with shared future for mankind" that is frequently seen in speeches of Chinese leaders since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.

The building of "a community with shared future for mankind" has drawn the attention of all countries and gained global recognition. It has become an international consensus for the reform of the global governance system and the building of a new type of international relations.

Koi fish

Koi fish, a common carp, represents good luck and wishes for a happy life. Chinese people's craze has driven millions to repost koi-related tweets in hopes of attaining wealth and better health.

It started with an online lottery scheme sponsored by Alipay mobile payment system in October. "Xinxiaodai," a 26-year-old IT engineer based in Beijing, who won the lottery, was dubbed as the "national koi." The tradition continues on the internet, as "reposting koi" has become a trend on Weibo.
