Tips

culture
MBTI exploded as Chinese internet small-talk currency around 2022 — replacing 星座 (xīngzuò) 'astrology' as the default get-to-know-you label. The 16 type codes (INFP, ENTJ etc.) are used as nouns: INFP. The single-letter slang I (I-rén) 'introvert' and E (E-rén) 'extrovert' come from the I/E axis.
register
Pronounced in English letter names (M-B-T-I). No Chinese name is in common use; the loanword IS the term.
