Tang Poems (Tang Dynasty) and Song words (Song Dynasty) are truly beautiful and reflect what a leisurely and splendid life was once existed in ancient China, people from at least in these periods were so fortunate and admired by us. There are many "China Tang" set up in some big cities outside of China, and this term originates from "Tang Dynasty".

Chinese history is fascinating, all the events couldn't anticipated. I think the most disastrous moment occurred in 1644 when ancient China was unexpectedly defeated by a brutish tribe from the north, establishing the worst dynasty- the Qing Dynasty. The terrible thing is, the dynasty was indeed a flunkey or slave society, beginning from that time, men were forced to plait their hair.

Tang Poems (Tang Dynasty) and Song words(?) (Song Dynasty) are truly beautiful and reflect what ahow leisurely and splendid the life was that once existed in ancient China, p. People from at least during these periods were sovery fortunate and are admired by us.

What are “Song words”?

“At least in” doesn’t make sense to me, so I deleted it.

I’ve never heard of “China Tang”—what is it?

If there isn’t a logical connection between the fact that it was a slave society and the plaiting of hair, use two separate sentences.

"Tang Poems" for "唐诗", and "Song Words" for “宋词”. If you couldn't understand, then I must have been mistaken. Maybe "poetry of Song Dynasty, or Song Phrase, or Song Lyrics" can have sense to English native speakers?

I guess you know the term "Chinatown", which exists in many cities in the US. The pronunciation of 'Tang' and 'town' is quite similar.

I checked an encyclopedia. It appears to be called Song Ci poetry.

Maybe they sound similar when you say them, but not for native English speakers. :-)

''were so fortunate and admired by us.'' would imply that they were admired by us, but no longer are, as 'were' refers to the past! So I have broken up WERE so fortunate and ARE so admired by us.

I hope I have not misunderstood.

There are many "China Tang" set up in some big cities outside of China, and this term originates from "Tang Dynasty".

I would specify what China Tang is here.

''There are many China Tang people living in big cities outside of China''
''There are many China Tang restaurants located in cities outside of China''
