I need a translation for my fanfic, but none of the online chinese translators work for me.
Does anyone know what the word 'runt' or 'little runt' is in chinese or could possibly put stick it in an online translator?
thanks

I love Wash! Bring back Wash!

Literally speaking, I've seen xiaojiachu 小家畜 (little domestic animal/livestock), but the slang meaning is hard to come by.

However, I found that Yahoo Taiwan's dictionary ( http://tw.dictionary.yahoo.com) gives xiaoaizi 小矮子 (little dwarf) for the derogatory meaning of "runt."

XIAO GUI

it means little devil....

most of the times it used like 'You little bastard'

Ni zhi ge xiao gui!

It can be insulting and endearing depending on the context.
