Talk:Kuei-jin

Source for the claim that the word kuei means ghost in mandarin
While I'm not chinese myself, I am quite a language enthusiast when it comes to mandarin, and I the basic principles of the language, one of them is that there are only a few certain sounds(syllables, for a westerner) which can be used, but not mashed together. While there is a Wei sound, and a Ku sound, there exists no Kuei sound. You simply cannot say it in mandarin. I've also looked up ghost in a mandarin dictionary and found nothing even remotely resembling Kuei Is this a non-standart transliteration method, (not pinyin)? The only word single word there is for ghost is gui3.

I understand this could be a different transliteration, I'm just trying to be constructive and therefore skeptical.
