"Geilivable", combining pinyin of Chinese characters Geili (giving strength) with the English suffix for adjectives, literally means "giving power" or "cool". Similarly, "Hengeilivable" means "very cool", and "ungeilivable" means "dull, not cool at all".
"Geilivable"将"给力"一词的中文拼音与英语中形容词后缀结合起来,字面意为“真给劲”或“很酷”。类似的表达还有"Hengeilivable",意为“很给力”;而"ungeilivable"则表示“不给力,无趣,没意思”。
"Antizen" referred to the group of college graduates who, earning a meager salary and living in small rented apartments, were like the tiny and laborious ants.http://www.24en.com爱思英语网

"Foulsball(中国足球)"表达出了网民对于中国足球打假球、吹黑哨、非法赌球的愤怒。

David Tool, a professor with the Beijing International Studies University said it very interesting to combine Chinese with English to create new words.
北京外国语大学教授杜大卫 (David Tool)表示,将中英文结合起来创造新词,这非常有趣。
“English is no longer mysterious to the Chinese people. They can use the language in a flexible way according to their own experiences,” he said.
他说:“中国人对英语不再感到神秘,他们可以按照自己的经历灵活地使用英语。”
Chinese words and expressions were created, as well, by netizens.
同时,网民们也创造出许多汉语网络语言。http://www.24en.com爱思英语网
One example was "Suan Ni Hen". This three-character expression, which originally meant "you win" with the first character carrying the same pronunciation as garlic in Chinese, is used to satirize soaring garlic and food prices this winter.
“蒜(算)你狠”便是其中之一。这三个汉字原意为“你赢了”,而在中文里,“算”与“蒜”发音相同。人们用“蒜你狠”来讽刺今冬大蒜和其他食品价格的飞涨。http://www.24en.com爱思英语网
Chinese people use the character "bei" prior to a verb to show a passive voice, and it was used by netizens to show the helplessness in front of false conclusions and fake media reports. For instance, "zisha" means "suicide" while "beizisha" means "be officially presumed to have committed suicide", and "xiaokang" means "fairly comfortable life" while "beixiaokang" means "be said to be living a fairly comfortable life".
汉语中,动词前加上“被”字表示被动语气。而网民们用“被”字来表示对虚假结论以及伪造新闻的无可奈何。比如,不同于“自杀”一词,“被自杀”表示“经官方认定已自杀身亡”。 “小康” 一词原指舒适生活,而“被小康”则表示“被认定过上小康生活”。http://www.24en.com爱思英语网
