习大大 (Xí Dàda): Daddy Xi
Term of endearment for President Xi Jinping.
In an effort to bring Xi closer to the people, state media often call him “Daddy Xi.” “Daddy” (dada) comes from the Shaanxi dialect of Mandarin. Xi’s father, Xi Zhongxun, was born in Shaanxi, so “daddy” is a nod to this heritage. The same term can also mean “uncle,” but either way connotes familiarity and warmth.
