Visual Similarity[edit]

Similar to my comments at Talk:Haimen and Talk:Puxi, I am confronted with a kind of hard-to-shake notion that 'Fuxing' shares some kind of visual similarity with fucking, perhaps especially due to the right-hand side of the letter 'k' being half of an 'x'. I don't know what this kind of relationship could be called. I also experienced this kind of feeling with Bayan Obo ('buy an oboe'). --Geographyinitiative (talk) 19:09, 1 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
