Uncle ram,

Just curious, what's the cantonese meaning:

1. Tiu nia (nay ah) seng, what is the "ah seng" means?

2. Tiu nay lou mei, what is "lou mei"?

Fuck in...
Teochiew = Poo (e.g. poo nia nia ngor chee)
Cantonese = Tiu (e.g. tiu lei lou mou chao hai)
Hokkien = Kan (e.g. kan nin na bu chao chee bye)

 

[Narong Wongwan]

Sure or not? I've lived in HK, GZ and SF Chinatown before. Cantonese penis is pronounced same as Hokkien penis, lan, e.g. lan xi lan yong = like cock shit like cock.

Yes. Gao also sounds different as gao in dog.
one word that uses this gao (penis) is Ngong Gao Gao (stupid dick)

actually lan to my understanding refers to the balls....as in lampar.
But most people refers to it as penis also.
lan is more used by malaysians and sinkies probably because it sounds the same as hokkien lan........

That was pointed out to me by a laundry aunty in SF Chinatown when we ate together once and I wanted to order crab. She said, speak English to order, don't speak Cantonese, even though the waitress taking the order was obviously a Cantonese-speaking Chinese. Crab is so delicious but has such a pitiful name, sigh. In Cantonese, it sounds like cunt and even in English, it sounds like crap.

Chinese dialects are great. Some of the best songs are from Taiwanese singers in menanyu.
Melodic tunes with beautiful lyrics.
Unfortunately, the most chorlor words are also in chinese dialects.
