dim sum英语读音为英[ˌdɪm ˈsʌm]或美[dɪm sʌm]。
dim sum的意思是中式点心；茶点；港式点心。
点心（中国食品）：a Chinese dish or meal consisting of small pieces of food wrapped in sheets of dough.
“Dim”在英语中的意思是“点”，而“Sum”是“心”。Dim（点）意味外形迷你袖珍，而Sum（心）则是美味会抵达心尖。
Dim Sum的汉字“点心”字面上的意思是“点着你的心”或“拨动你的心”。和其他巧妙组合起来的中文词语一样，“点心”也是一个双关语。或许也是要让厨师不要忘记他们的责任，要尽力为食客做出最美味的佳肴。
