English terms that were partially calqued from Mandarin, i.e. terms formed partly by piece-by-piece translations of Mandarin terms and partly by direct borrowing.

To categorize a term into this category, use {{pcal|en|cmn|source_term}} (or {{pclq|...}} or {{partial calque|...}}, using the same syntax), where source_term is the Mandarin term that the term in question was borrowed from.
