Chinese WoW / Titan Reforged Glossary for International Players
Last updated: 2025-12-23 
5 minIf you’ve played on World of Warcraft’s Chinese servers, then you should have encountered this kind of problem: Chinese realms—and Titan Reforged in particular—use dense shorthand. A normal translator will turn “4=1 QS YY” into nonsense when the raid leader is actually saying "Need 1 more, Paladin, voice ready?" This cheat-sheet gives you the most common Chinese → English mappings, short explanations, and quick English replies you can paste back. Pair it with a live overlay and a tiny custom dictionary, and you’ll read LFG like a local.
