第三巴士No.3 bus

No, i am not talking about the bus route, but the bus company in Guangzhou (or Canton). It was refreshing, though in a mischievous kinda way that I was happy to note that the bus company used 巴士 "ba shi" instead of 公交 "gongjiao" because that was evidently a nod to the anglicism infiltrated into the local Cantonese dialect. One might wonder why I want to see "bad" Chinese usage of ba shi, buit I can tell you if that's the public concensus which shaped this expression, why not? It also enriches the Chinese vocabulary.

很高興在廣州看見第三“巴士”而不是第三“公交”...這證明廣州人也接納這受英語影響的詞。崇洋？不是，只不過這從外文翻過來的詞豐富了粵語而已。希望詞匯表達的多元化不會令人覺得“山高皇帝遠”，沒人管。
