1 a : the Chinese dialect of Beijing b : a native or resident of Beijing
2 : any of a Chinese breed of small short-legged dogs with a broad flat face and a profuse long soft coat
Didn't realized that the same name is used for a dog, dialect and a native person. Also check out the new Merriam-Webster's Visual Dictionary the first visual dictionary to incorporate real dictionary definitions.
