What does TAI CHI translate to in english?

太极 is a term which came from Taoism 道教.


There is a saying "阴阳合太极" (Yin Yang He Tai Ji).


I'm sure many are familiar with "Yin %26amp; Yang" in Taoism


So 阴阳合太极 can literally means Yin and Yang made up the Tai Ji。 I mention this since I saw many people writing about 太极拳Tai Ji Quan.

You might be looking for the word 太迟(Tai Chi)


It means too late. 太(tai) means "too" or "very" while 迟 (chi) means "late"





Hope these help :)

What does TAI CHI translate to in english?
hello

Reply:Tai Chi ( Chuan ) means Ultimate Fist.
Reply:I think chi is the Chinese word for energy, just as ki is the Japanese word for it, as in Reiki. I don't know about the tai.
Reply:'Supreme Ultimate Force'.





I googled it.
Reply:it'd be like "flows of your power of life"


"Feel the force", you know.....like that
Reply:Great ultimate.


And, in full, Tai chi chuan = great ultimate boxing
Reply:Think it's "highest reach" Google it.





edit:http://www.thefreedictionary.com/tai+chi
Reply:Technically it's tai chi chuan. In hanyu pinyin, it'd be tai ji quan, where tai ji means ultimate, and goes back to some sort of Chinese philosophy, and quan means fist. Or if you really want to break it up, tai means soemthing like (too) much, and ji means extreme(ly). Sounds somewhat weird, but basically about balance between the two ends of the spectrum.
Reply:The Mandarin term "tai chi chuan" literally translates as "supreme ultimate fist" or "boundless fist," but may better translate to "great extremes boxing,"
Reply:tai chi = tai ji = Supreme Ultimate
