没有人喜欢你

The phrase "no one likes you" is translated into Chinese as 没有人喜欢你 (méi yǒu rén xǐhuan nǐ).
A statement used to tell someone that they are disliked by everyone.
What does it mean word for word?
The phrase is composed of 没有 (méiyǒu, 'there is not'), 人 (rén, 'person'), 喜欢 (xǐhuan, 'to like') and 你 (nǐ, 'you').
How do you pronounce it?
méi yǒu rén xǐhuan nǐ
Did you know?
- The word 喜欢 is composed of two characters: 喜 meaning 'happiness' and 欢 meaning 'joy'. Literally, telling someone no one 'likes' them is telling them no one finds 'joy' in their presence.
- If you were to use this phrase in a formal business setting, it would be considered an extremely jarring breach of etiquette. Chinese culture places a high value on 'saving face', and such a blunt, direct criticism is much more socially damaging than in many Western cultures.
- To make the statement sound even more cold and definitive, speakers may replace 你 with 你这种人, which translates to 'a person of your kind'.
