The Liu ()〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/liu-shao-qi )〕 as transcribed in English can represent several different surnames written in different Chinese characters: *劉 / 刘, pinyin: Liú. A very common surname, as it was the family name of Han Dynasty emperors. *柳 pinyin: Liǔ in Mandarin, Lau : Cantonese *留 pinyin: Liú in Mandarin, Lau : Cantonese *六 pinyin: Liù in Mandarin, Lyuk : Cantonese *廖 Cantonese pinyin: Liu 6, Mandarin : Liao, Wu In Cantonese transliteration, 刘/劉 (Liú) is Lau, Lao is also transliteration of 刘/劉 in Min Nan and Taiwanese Minnan Chinese language, whilst Liu is a different surname, 廖, pinyin: Liào, (Liêu in Vietnamese). In Teochew, 刘/劉 is usually romanized as Lau, Low or Lao; 柳 is written as Lew; and 廖 is romanized as Leow or Liau. In Hakka, 刘/劉 is most commonly transliterated as Liew while 廖 is written as Liau or Liaw. The other variants of the romanised surname Liu, i.e. 柳, 留 and 六, are uncommon among speakers of Hakka. The Indonesian-Chinese descent Latinise it according to Dutch pronunciation as Lauw. In Vietnamese, the name can either take the form Liễu (in northern regions), or Lưu (in central or southern regions), or Lục. A few having Vietnamese-Chinese descent use the family name Lao. ==Origin of Liu== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Liu」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
