teochew not so good lah. Somemore my mum's side are all baba teochews.

but can least order teochew porridge using correct teochew terms?

my teochew as foundation not strong. only expose to it up to 5yo, then moved to grandma house where neighbour mostly hokkien. that why i speak a rojak of teochew & hokkien. But at the very least, i can order porridge in teochew. as a gonghu lang, not bad already.

u sure a strange guy, a great defender of everything chinese yet knowledge of chinese langague/culture/history etc etc... seems to be rather low.

No reason in particular. Just coined my girlfriends in the moment of fancy. There's some meaning though. My Thai name means a child of the wind and my Japanese name is actually transliterated from my Chinese name meaning handsome and great.

My Japanese name is Kagoshima Kurobuta.

My Thai name is Phat Kraphao.

Congrats. Welcome to the club.

Porridge in teochew is mue, i don't know how to spell it but you should know what i mean.

Tell you the truth i'm actually a eat kang tang fellow but so what? I defend chinese cos that's the only right thing to do. At the end of the day even if you speak african language, english etc you're still regarded as a chinese. Many non chinese helicopters can never ever grasp this concept. Btw i do bash chinese too. Chinese dogs get bashing from me. At least i speak better mandarin than pierre png.

It's spelled 糜。It's alright to eat potato. Don't worry. Food is food. There's nothing western or eastern about potato as staple. Just a state of mind.

There's no point and no reward being bilingual or multiligual. I speak five languages and three dialects and I'm one of the most hated and hounded here. Dear friends, stick to the one language you like but some basic English is good for international travels. That's about it.

Allan Wu's mandarin is music to my ears.

i first proud of being a cantonese / seeyap then chinese. but then according to conquror, i only 50% han chinese. i am proud of the chinese culture & history but i wont defend the ah tiongs of today which after the culture revolution has lost all morality.

btw, u can learn about chinese history and culture in yingrish too, it just a matter want to know or not.

My goodness. Some rare sobbing lamentation from the great Pharoah himself. Now you admit that English is essential.
