I have a first middle and last name.
Un is the family name.
A bit pedantic considering that is petty considering the topic. Kim Jong "UN" deserves to be called a fucking dick.
The point of my post is to point out Trump's impetuous unpredictable bombastic behavior is hypocritical considering whom he is commenting on.
We call Trump by his last name too. Trump's first name is Donald.
Uh, no. Kim is his family name. His given name is Jong Un, often hyphenated as Jong-Un. It has become customary in English to render the names of East Asian peoples except Japanese living in their name lands in in their proper traditional order of family name first, followed by given name.
However, it remains customary to render East Asian names of people residing in the west in the traditional western order of given name first, followed by family name.
Ok, still, thank you for the correction. I guess that is simply a lifetime of media putting it that way. Lots of non English languages seem backwards to people in the west.
But none of that has anything to do with Trump being a bombastic unpredictable jackass.
Kim, Trump, both unpredictable assholes who vilify dissent and any media that doesn't kiss their ass.
The only think stopping Trump for now, from looking like the Kim family, is we still have a constitution in place. But he is doing everything he can to destroy it.
