*snort*

And to make it even simpler, that "question mark" is spoken in Chinese.
"Ni hao ma" = "Your tummy <question mark>" = "How ya doing?"

(And don't get me started on Korean, which has the most rational written 
language in the world.)

I miss studying Asian languages.  Never got to use any of 'em tho.

Yours in weeaboo-dom,
