How to Write 婊 (biǎo) — Meaning “Bitch (derogatory)”

Think of a woman (女) who puts on a fake surface (表) or appearance. This image of a woman acting deceptively can help you recall that 婊 means 'bitch' or a manipulative person. You can also remember the pinyin biǎo by noting it sounds like 'be-ow' as in a mean cat sound.

The radical 女 on the left should be narrow and tall, written with the three strokes in proper order (left, right, then the central horizontal). The right part 表 has eight strokes and is wider; make sure the top 青-like part is not confused with 王. A common mistake is making the left 女 too wide, upsetting the balance.

婊 means 'bitch' and is a strong curse word, while 姘 (pīn) means 'to have an illicit relationship' and is less common. 姚 (yáo) is a surname and has nothing to do with insult. Visually, 婊 has 表 on the right, 姘 has 并 (bìng), and 姚 has 兆 (zhào); their strokes and shapes are different.

婊 is a very offensive derogatory term for a woman, similar to the English word 'bitch'. It appears in slang like 绿茶婊 (green tea bitch) for someone who acts innocent but is manipulative. Do not use this character in polite conversation, as it can cause serious offense.

Common words containing 婊 include: 婊子 (biǎo zi) — Bitch; prostitute (derogatory); 绿茶婊 (lǜ chá biǎo) — green tea bitch (slang for a manipulative person who acts innocent); 婊里婊气 (biǎo lǐ biǎo qì) — Acting manipulative or fake (slang).
