Chi may refer to:
Chi (Chinese: 螭; pinyin: chī; Wade–Giles: ch'ih) means either "a hornless dragon" or "a mountain demon" (namely, chimei 螭魅) in Chinese mythology. Hornless dragons were a common motif in ancient Chinese art, and the chiwen 螭吻 (lit. "hornless-dragon mouth") was an Imperial roof decoration in traditional Chinese architecture.
In Modern Standard Chinese usage, chi 螭 "hornless dragon" occurs in words such as:
Note that the following discussion of the word chi 螭's written forms and etymological origins requires using some jargon linguistics and sinology. See also 9 sons of the dragon.
CHInoyTV or CHI FCTV (Traditional Chinese: 菲華電視台, Simplified Chinese: 菲华电视台, Pinyin: Fēi huá diànshìtái, English: Filipino Chinese Television, Hokkien: Hui Hua Tien Si Tai, Cantonese: Fei Wah Tin Si Toi), is a weekly television program of Net 25, with Fil-Chi Media Productions as its production venture, that airs every Sunday at 10:30 - 11:30 am (02:30-03:30 UTC). It also airs its replays every Tuesday at 11:00 pm - 12:00 mn (15:00-16:00 UTC), and Saturday at 10:30 - 11:30 am (02:30-03:30 UTC).
CHInoyTV traces its roots to Chi which was premiered on IBC-13 in 2009. CHInoyTV is the first Filipino-Chinese Television show to air in HDTV technology by Net 25.
On its third season, CHInoyTV unveiled its new logo, welcomes new set of hosts, and introduced new segments. During the third season, CHInoyTV also launched the first reality business show on free TV dubbed as CHInoypreneur Challenge.
The show mainly uses three languages; namely: English, Filipino, and Mandarin Chinese (however with English subtitles) during CHInoy Plus.
An imageboard or image board is a type of Internet forum which operates mostly via posting images. The first imageboards were created in Japan, and many English language imageboards today are centered on Japanese culture. They are based on the textboard concept.
Imageboards, similar to bulletin board systems, are used for discussions of a variety of topics. The primary focus of imageboards, however, is directed away from text posts, and is instead placed on picture posts. The two share many of the same structures, including separate forums for separate topics, as well as similar audiences. Imageboards are much more transitory with content—on some boards (especially highly trafficked ones), the thread deletion time can be as little as 10 minutes. The most popular English language imageboard, 4chan, tends to revolve around Japanese culture such as CG artwork or anime. In Japan, where imageboards are more common, topics vary widely, ranging from trains to current news.
The Japanese language uses a broad array of honorific suffixes for addressing or referring to people. These honorifics attach to the end of people's names, as in Aman-san where the honorific -san was attached to the name Aman. These honorifics are often gender-neutral, but some imply a more feminine context (such as -chan) while others imply a more masculine one (such as -kun).
These honorifics are often used along with other forms of Japanese honorific speech, keigo, such as that used in conjugating verbs.
Although honorifics are not part of the basic grammar of the Japanese language, they are a fundamental part of the sociolinguistics of Japanese, and proper use is essential to proficient and appropriate speech. Significantly, referring to oneself using an honorific, or dropping an honorific when it is required, is a serious faux pas, in either case coming across as clumsy or arrogant.
They can be applied to either the first or last name depending on which is given. In situations where both the first and last names are spoken, the suffix is attached to whichever comes last in the word order.
Chan is an archomental in the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game.
Chan first appeared with the good archomentals in the second edition book Planescape Monstrous Compendium Appendix III (1998).

Chan is an Archomental, the Elemental Princess of Good Air. She is an invisible entity of softly churning air. Though master of calm breezes and gentle sounds, she can rage like a harsh wind or even a violent tornado when she must. She resides on the Elemental Plane of Air, within her floating citadel, the Palace of Unseen Contemplation, where good air elementals, air mephits, djinn, invisible stalkers, air monoliths, sylphs, arrowhawks, air weirds, spirits of the air, ki-rin, hollyphants, shedu, senmurvs, aarakocra, avariel, cloud giants, giant eagles, air genasi, and pegasi revere her. The majority of her worshippers on the Prime Material Plane among the humanoid races tend to be air elemental savants, bonded summoners, druids, good-aligned monks, skylords, skypledged, and air shugenjas.
