Seriously, I have been knowing the negative term "chink" for my entire life. And I was very angry when I heard the news.
But I was so surprised that ESPN reporters would do such a thing like that. Now I have a question and I hope someone who knows it better can answer me calmly and scientifically. (without getting me wrong)
What exactly does "chink" mean? I mean besides the crack or fissure meaning.
The dictionary says: It's used as a disparaging term for person of Chinese birth or descent. And that's what I have been knowing for this word.
But why is this term disparaging? Can anyone tell me how to properly interpret "chink" in another term or terms? Like does it mean Chinese Ghost? Or Sick Chinese? Or?
Thanks!
I don't think it has any particular meaning it's just a derogatory term. Like cracker for white people, *****r for black people, paki for Indian people, raghead for muslims, chink for chinese, japs for japanese.
The word itself is not particularly derogatory just the way it is used.
