Cho! Cho le!

Although, I thought it is a Chinese term or at least had a root from Chinese language, which is what I have heard from people online, I have seen athletes around the world choing. Is the theory just wrong, or has it evolved into part of the table tennis celebrating tradition/culture worldwide?

I have. Well, perhapes I haven't done a full research on it, doing interviews on people, reading published papers after papers and tracking back all the references. Chill man. It's a fun question. I'm not trying to battle you over keyboard on the legitimacy of boosting or how stupid and pretentious it is to use a fancy carbon blade when people can't loop more than 2 balls consecutively. It's about TT culture, cheering and winning a point. I don't mind spending my time posting this. I don't know why you are so serious about it.

I hope you have read this post. I'm not asking what it means.
I'm trying to discuss how wide spread it is in the world, whether it is "chinese exclusive", if you will and the origin of it.

It doesn't need to be a rigorous study/statistics. I don't mind it if it is your personally experience over the years seeing people cho-leing(it is a word now).
