Beiping

/beɪˈpɪŋ/

Where it comes from

From the Hanyu Pinyin romanization of the Mandarin Chinese pronunciation for 北平 (Běipíng).

proper noun Peiping · Pei-p'ing

alternative Alternative form of Peiping The year 1947 opened with massive anti-American demonstrations in several Chinese cities. The ostensible reason for the demonstrations was the alleged rape of a Chinese university student by two U.S. marines in Beiping, but antagonism against Americans went quickly beyond this criminal charge.
