Question for translators
Hello,
I have a simple question. The Chinese term "Tai Tzu" is that something pretty much reserved as a title for the founder of a dynasty? Or can it be used in other areas. I am asking because There is an individual that is teaching Taiji by having student go through a one hour course in some basic Taoist concepts and then having his students "free fight" right then and their suposedly useing those concepts. He is calling his system Tai Tzu Tao in an attempt to allude to the fact that he feels he's teaching ancient Taoist concepts.
I am under the impression the title "Tai Tzu" is something awarded to the founder of a great dynasty postmontonomusly (After he died).
Is this one of those things that an American would come up with, but a native born Chinese would chuckle at becasue it is grossly improper use of the Language? or is is considred proper useage for an individual to name his reletively new method "Tai Tzu Tao" because he is suposedly useing some really old concepts?
Those that are the most sucessful are also the biggest failures. The difference between them and the rest of the failures is they keep getting up over and over again, until they finally succeed.
