You've heard the expression "china," and maybe you've even used it in a sentence like, "How's another beer there, china?" But have you ever wondered why we South Africans call each other "china"?
Well, it comes from the rhyming slang of the East End of London (not to be confused with the birthplace of Lukhanyo Am -- East London).
