今天你都吃什麼了?
沙縣?餃子??
這麼冷的天氣必須得吃頓餃子
那麼餃子的英文怎麼說才對?
為什麼不能說dumplings?
維基百科是這麼說的
dumplings是一種很寬泛的分類，指的是包著餡料的麵團，或者不包餡的麵團。外面包裹的麵團可以是麵包、或者麵粉、土豆做成的，裡面填上肉、魚、奶酪、蔬菜、水果或糖果的餡料。餃子的製作方法多種多樣，包括烤、煮、煎、煨或蒸，世界上有很多烹飪方法。
所以其實"麵皮包著餡兒"的都叫dumplings
遠不止餃子，
還有雲吞、包子、餡餅、灌湯包、韭菜盒子……
都是dumplings
因此你把餃子說成dumplings

其他美味食物
餃子除了在平時吃
在春節也是一道不可或缺的菜餚
Jiaozi (Chinese Dumplings)
Filled with vegetables and/or meat, jiaozi – or Chinese dumplings – are common street foods. They are shaped like ancient gold ingots, which were believed to bring you good luck. In China dumplings usually refers to boiled dumplings and they are often eaten with a dip of soy-vinegar sauce for flavor. One bite releases a mouthful of hot, juicy broth that reaches every sense on the tongue, creating an explosive mixture of flavors. Jiaozis are eaten all throughout the year, but more so on Chinese New Years.
蔬菜或肉餡的餃子是常見的街頭小吃。它們的形狀像古代的金錠，被認為會給你帶來好運。在中國說到餃子一般就是指煮的，吃時需要蘸上醬油醋調味。一口咬下去能吃出滾燙多汁的餡料，刺激你舌頭的每一處感覺，創造出一種爆炸性的混合味道。人們一年到頭都要吃餃子，但在春節時更是如此。
雲吞(餛飩)
A wonton (Mandarin: húntun) is a type of Chinese dumpling commonly found across regional styles of Chinese cuisine.
Wonton(普通話：hunntun)是一種中國dumpling，常見於地域風味的中國菜中。
包子
Baozi (Chinese: 包子), or bao, is a type of yeast-leavened filled bun in various Chinese cuisines. There are many variations in fillings (meat or vegetarian) and preparations, though the buns are most often steamed. They are a variation of mantou from Northern China.
Baozi或者bao，是眾多中國美食中一種由酵母發酵而成的有餡的麵團子。雖然有各種各樣(素的肉的)的餡料和製作方法，但是一般包子都是蒸的。這是中國北方饅頭的一種變種。
鍋貼
If dumplings are laid flatly on a pan, first steamed with a lid on and with a thin layer of water, then fried in oil after the water has been evaporated, they are called guotie (鍋貼, literally translates to "potstickers"). The same dumplings are called jiaozi if they are just steamed or boiled.
把餃子平鋪在平底鍋上油炸之後的菜餚被稱為guotie(鍋貼，翻譯成potstickers)。如果dumplings只是蒸或煮就被稱為餃子。
類似的還有sweet dumplings就是湯圓，
soup dumplings就是灌湯包或者小籠包，
glutinous rice(糯米) dumplings就是粽子，
甚至國外還有各式各樣的dumplings
