Film Trivia

The name of the seminal Bruce Lee martial arts film, 'Enter the Dragon' is 龍爭虎鬥 - a rough translation would be "The dragon struggles, the tiger contends" :
lung4 龍 'dragon' / zaang1 爭 'to struggle' / fu2 虎 'tiger' / dau3 鬥 'to contend'

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon = 臥虎藏龍 (ngo6, fu2, cong4, lung4)
