Mantis Glossary of Terminology

[BiGF00T]

Perhaps I'll come back later to add more and also toss on the English translations to the 31 keywords.

It has been some time and no one added the translations... I needed the translations and got them at the previously mentioned page www.authentickungfu.com. No work from my side except for Pinyin for those who can't read characters and copying the stuff together. I was unable to read the cantonese terms but it was at least easy to map them to the correct characters.

2.搂 lou3 Grapple

I'm still in search for the characters to the rest of the information provided on authentickungfu.com. Some of the Cantonese (it is Cantonese, isn't it?) is so hard to understand that I can't think of a Mandarin character that could sound alike. And the Cantonese romanization also doesn't seem to be standardized. If I copy the stuff from there to an online Cantonese dictionary, it does not necessarily spit out a translation...

Did anyone translate the stuff there to characters and could provide the information?
