If I said 星条旗 to mean the US flag (花旗 = 美国国旗), would Chinese speakers understand it? 嗨，大家好！ In my native Korean, the American flag (Star Spangled Banner) is called 성조기 which could be written as "星条旗" in 汉字. Now, I just learned today that the word 花旗 is the usual term in Chinese but would Chinese speakers also understand "星条旗"? 请大家分享我的问题。谢谢大家。
