“BB526″ ~ Personalised Numberplate spotted in Hong Kong.
What could it mean?
The numbers 5, 2, & 6 correspond to Chinese words just like 2(two) =to or 4(four) =for in English.
In Mandarin:
5 wǔ 五 sounds like wǒ (I)
2 èr 二 sounds like ài (love)
6 liù 六 sounds like nǐ (you)
BB = stands for Bibi = Chinese for “Baby”
Baby I love you!
Awwwww… how cute is that?!

Note: In fact 520 is the “official” code for “I love you” “0″ ling is closer sounding to nǐ (you) and but 526 still sounds similar enough to work. Thanks to Stephiie for pointing that out!

woww. i thought it was 520 though
cause 0 is ‘ling’ in manderin and i think it sounds more like ‘ni’

Hey Stephiie! Ur right! 520 is the official code for I love you… but 526 still works… and was the numberplate spotted. Another u probably know is 1314 meaning forever! Thanks for your input cutie.. I’ll add a note below the post xx

Hi Carmen when are you going to write a new post? I used to so look forward to your new writings everyday. Now I am bored of reading this 526 already. You must have been too busy socialising while you are down under. But you can’t neglect your blog fans you know.
