Trivia (perhaps?)[edit]

Seems to be pronounced much like Shanxi or Shaanxi, provinces in China, or a planet from Mass Effect . Knowing ANet, this doesn't seem too far fetched. EtariP sdrawkcaB ehT 05:26, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

I'm adding it as trivia. Someone can revert if they disagree. EtariP sdrawkcaB ehT 18:03, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
Coincidence of names isn't really enough to make something worth mentioning in the article. "Shēng xi" translates to "raising interest rates" (or something along those lines). There's also 深吸, 深悉, 渗析 (dialysis), 神戏, and other possible homonyms. (A Mass Effect location seems more plausible than most, but there's nothing in the NPC's dialogue or in-game purpose to link the two...which makes accidental similarity as likely as intended reference.) – Tennessee Ernie Ford (TEF) 18:17, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
