hi there


1. bro, one more most common hk street slang "tiu lei".
2. hahaha!

bro, can I ask a serious question?
"tiu lei" in cantonese is used when the guy wants to scold someone "fark u" right?
But what is the literal meaning of "tiu lei", as in does it depict the sex act or is it just a vulgarity with no specific meaning?
Thanks.

Fuck in...
Hokkien = Kan (e.g. kan nin na bu chao chee bye)

bro, originating from taiwanese menanyu, it should be "kan ne niang chao chee bye".
That's why they have 3 word (knn) or 6 word (knnccb) vulgarity not seven word.
kan nin na actually has no meaning.

kan nin na actually has no meaning.

Hokkien (whether Fujian Minanese, Taiwanese or Singlish version) is very versatile in prounciation adaptation or abbreviation. Kan nin na or kan nin nia still means the same, fuck your mother. Or simply, you kan bu means you're motherfucker. A more civil example, Guangzhou (the city) is prounced kng jiu in Hokkien but the same word guang is pronounced kong in Hokkien as in kong tai (big and vast). Same as in Tong tiao (Tang dynasty) and Tng lang (Tang people or Chinese people).

 

[zhihau]

kan nin na actually has no meaning.

bro,
knn has a meaning. the actual phrase is "kan nin nia" or screw your mother. nia is 娘
pretty much a colloquial version of its extended version.
problem is, folks had to bastardise the words with a slur, which ends up with kanina...

 

[zhihau]

motherfucker

Old Teochew goes "wa poo nin nia bor" which incidentally includes the wife too

hi there


1. "tiu lei" is very rough & coarse street slang!
2. it equates "f u" literally.
3. nothing more nothing less!

1. ram, kudos.
2. power man!

 

[yinyang]

Fuck in...Hokkien = Kan

You adept in street lingo:p

What about hakka swear (equivalent of above)? Is it ngai tiu?

 

[Ramseth]

Another variation is...

Cantonese - Tiu gao nei (go fuck a dog.)

Hokkien - Hor gao kan (go get fucked by a dog.) There's even a forummer here with this nick.

I think as usual, vulgarity competition, Hokkien wins.

Lor mang (Cantonese) - need to hear it

It should be Lor men = Means you are killing me = Asking too much from me = Alamaking demanding another orgasm....LOL

I have no idea what he is trying to sound until you write this.

I think it is more like "Lor Maeng". It means take (Lor) life (Maeng). It is more like an action from the target which hurts the speaker. For instance, the target penetrate into a virgin. the pain from virgin cause her to say " Lor maeng meh?!"

Now I see, it's the same as Mandarin Chinese yao ming.

Actually there are more application in this word, depending on how you use it.

There is a video on Youtube.com about application on "tiu". There are 2 ways that the program taught.

First one is "lau tiu". "Lau" means courting. the application of "lau tiu" is on a person challenging you to a fight ( either by wit of fist). So exmple is " this guy is doing this on purpose to piss you off, he is definitely ' lau tiu'."

The second one is " daei tiu", meaning "deserve the fuck", its more like deserve the punishment. Example of use is " This guy screw up too much, he is definitely 'daei tiu'."

Sure or not? I've lived in HK, GZ and SF Chinatown before. Cantonese penis is pronounced almost the same as Hokkien penis, laan, e.g. laan xi laan yong = like cock shit like cock. But Cantonese never used lanjiao as in Hokkien, instead just dragging the laan longer.
