Got a nice little visual dictionary for christmas last year...happy to share!  

I thought about replacing the German with English first...but it is a language side isn't it? :-)..I just added English (hope all is correct!).

不用谢,乾阳:)

how about 乐师骨 yue4shi1gu3 ?  As an alternative for 可笑骨 ke3xiao4gu3...The German colloquial term for funny bone is "Musikantenknochen"... would be "musician bone"...

he he

hi bababardwan,

I posted this...and I am German..so I had to look up some (many...very specific ;)) of the English words...and I couldn't find this 足弓 because I don't even know how I would call it in German...not "Gewölbe" as this book is using... but its interesting...seems to BE the word (and I just never used in my life ;-))..as it is same in English (arch).

Useful pic Calkins.You added the English?..great job mate.

I'm not sure exactly what your question is about 足弓. I can't comment on the German,but the breakdown of the Chinese is:

足...foot

弓...bow ...obviously indicating the bow shape of this part of the foot and the arrow is pointing to what we call in English the arch of the foot.
