Talk:List of premiers of China
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Finally, in 1380, Emperor Hongwu decreed to kill his Prime Minister, & never appointed another one in his life. Since this, emperors never appointed any other premiers since 1911." I find this kind of doubtful. What was Premier in Chinese in imperial times anyways? Zongli 总理? Or 首相? Yinsi was 总理大臣, how do you translate that? Zhang Tingyu was 军机大臣, which is basically an administrative affairs position similar to that of the PM, how do you translate that? Colipon+(T) 22:44, 30 August 2005 (UTC)
shou xiang, da chen and zong li should all be translated as Prime Minister. But this article shoudl be deleted anyway, since it is just a copy of the lists (or lists which SHOULD BE) on other pages. 218.103.132.85 15:45, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
