How can we call a person who is very afraid of losing face?

No, Nessie, that word is definitely not part of most people's vocabulary. Probably 99% of all native speakers of English (if not more :lol:) would have to look it up.

Heh, that was the whole point of my choosing those words Nessie, to illustrate that sometimes even when there is a word to describe something, it may not actually be known or used.

What I meant to indicate was that although it's possible there is some word which covers the situation you originally asked about, (fear of losing face) in English, nobody will know it.

Although, I still hold that the 'peanut butter word' is useful, we just need to get people to start saying it. :)
