Tips

culture
史戴尔斯 is best known as the Chinese transliteration of 'Styles' in 《史戴尔斯庄园奇案》 (The Mysterious Affair at Styles, 1920) - the novel that introduced Hercule Poirot 赫尔克里·波洛 and launched Agatha Christie's career. Other 'Styles' (the singer Harry Styles, etc.) are usually rendered 斯泰尔斯 in modern Chinese instead.
