thats right... You can also say it in mandarin but it won't sound like MO Han
in mandarin it's pronounced wu-shien, or something to that effect.

to us chinese (china/taiwan) it's pronounced "WU-SHEN" but still means "no limit." The Japs stole our language in the past... so they got that weird *** MU-GEN pronounciation...

Dude, if they stolen our language they'd be speaking Mandarin wouldn't they. If you want to show your own ignorance, please do, but your comment just tainted "us Taiwanese."

No offense, but you need to get your history straight, the Taiwanese were the ones who adopted some of the Japanese language, why do you think we use "do-san" to express "father" in Taiwanese. Yes, the japanese uses some of mandarin-like pronouications, but the Japanese also adopted american morphology, some russian, and used it in conjunction with their original dialect.

It means Infinity. Thats why you see some folks refer to Mugen company as the Infinity company. My supplier says it sometimes when he referring to there parts.

When the Japanese invaded China they didn't know how to read or write so they invaded the Chinese language and characters as well. But soon they (the Japanese) realized one major problem when the Chinese can totally understand their secret codes, this is when they came up with those funny Japanese characters (hiragana)..

I take it they didn't know how to cook either, hence the origin of sushi
