NAMING
Sark, originally a non-sense word, is simply ‘Shark’ without an ‘h’ and it has been used as my English name since my adolescence.
P. – the initial of Pangrui, my first name in Mandarin, is less introduced to my western friends as it is too confronting for them to pronounce.
Xing, my family name, is pronounced as ‘Sing’.
