Best Answer

The adjective (as in vegetarianfood) would be 素食 su4shi2 (pinyin romanization). The verb form, which doesn't have a one word translation, would be 吃素 chi1su4, literally eat vegetarian. One would generally refer to oneself as a vegetarian by using the verb form - 我吃素 wo3chi1su4 - literally I eat vegetarian.

What is the difference between Indian vegetarians and Chinese vegetarians?

I'm a vegetarian and someone who has a lot of Indian friends. I do know many true Chinese vegetarians. The thing is that Indians have a very greasy diet. Not all of them are vegetarian but being or not, they fry lots of things and put butter in a bunch of things. Now, the Chinese, from China I should add, they steam the vegetables and have a light diet. The Chinese food from the USA is not the real Chinese food. They adapted the food here for the American taste, which is deep fried stuff...So, in comparison, the Chinese people have a much healthier vegetarian diet than the Indian.
