QUOTE(kron_ka @ Feb 12 2015, 08:58 AM) Do not acknowledge that you are a sissy, but pray to God for comfort and healing instead.Why struggle when you can turn to God for mercy, love and guidance? You should be thankful that every day when you arises from your bed, you have able hands and legs, some people do not have this luxury. You should be grateful that every day you have enough meals on the table, some barely have enough scraps to live by. You should be blessed that God have provided you with a family and a house to live in, some people are living under a bridge. You should be honoured that God chose to save your life to be with Him one day, some people out there are still blind and worship idolatry. You can moan and sulked forever, its your life. Only you can change your life. Just move on dude. This post has been edited by tinarhian: Feb 12 2015, 08:59 PM |

QUOTE(kron_ka @ Feb 12 2015, 10:02 PM) Ok thanks for the encouragement. Haiyo! Stop thinking of your ex gf la. Count your blessings thats what my pastor used to say. I pray that the joy of the Lord be with me. Its a process ya know, my heart is wounded, it takes time to heal. Ocassionally I get flashbacks of bad memories. Like eg, the video you provided, reminded me of my ex used to play her piano with christian music and record it in watsapp and send to me. Today Ah Pek gave me a bottle of Limited Edition Hennessy VSOP. Not referring to unknown warrior..LEL. The Ah Pek that I always buy beer from. I think because I introduced some expats to buy liquor from him. |

QUOTE(Sophiera @ Feb 12 2015, 10:50 PM) Just calling Ah Pek is quite rude especially to someone you don't know their age. The Ah is very casual. It's like calling someone Ah Boy Ah Girl OIC. No wonder the uncle frowned when I buy beer from him, his son chuckles whenever I called him Ah Pek.Proper term I think is Lau Pek. Even so if the guy kinda young, it's Ah Kor (brother) or Abang (also brother). For shop owners it's better to call them Tauke (a.k.a boss). If you go up to them and say Ah Pek they'll be thinking 'why is this person so rude'. Rather be called Uncle than Ah Pek. But he looks quite old, maybe around 60++ |

QUOTE(Sophiera @ Feb 12 2015, 11:02 PM) Even if he's old, he don't want to feel old OIC. Tauke? That sounds like the food right?If you talk to shop people always must call Boss or Tauke. 'Uncle' if you must use English but never Ah Pek. No wonder lah I thought you had a fight with UW that's why call him Ah Pek. Dun do that. For ladies it's Tauke So. Can be taken as Lady Boss or Boss' Wife. Auntie if you must. Don't call her Ah Yi or Ah Lian please. Char kueh teow with the tauke in it. Yummy. No I didn't had a fight with UW. He called me Ah So. That's why I called him Ah Pek. Coz I want to tease him. Ah Pek, you don't run away. Ah Yi / Ah Lian? I have a younger aunty (my relative) which I called Ah Yi. |

QUOTE(Sophiera @ Feb 12 2015, 11:08 PM) Chinese relation titles get pretty complex. It's all in relative to your parents. I see. Coz I heard my cousins keep calling our older uncle "Ah Pek." So I decided to follow suit. Like. My dad's older bro = Pek My dad's younger bro = Keim http://www.chinalanguage.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1543 Read this and you will understand. I'll read that later. |

Oh so if someone is not related, you just call them "Uncle" or "Aunty" (older).
How about handsome? How do I say that? I know its Leng ..something.. |

QUOTE(Sophiera @ Feb 12 2015, 11:16 PM) Pretty boy is Leng Cai (C is Ch). Girl is Leng Lui. Leng Cai. Yeah, I remember the Hong Kong movies, this dude get called "Leng Cai" so many times. haha...Be wary though. Some people would think that you're that pervert who's trying to flirt with them lol. Especially if you use Amoi. What? Oh, so if I call the "Uncle" (beer Tauke) "Leng Chai", he'll get offended? hahaha... I will try that tomorrow, I'll take my chances.. QUOTE(De_Luffy @ Feb 12 2015, 11:16 PM) What?! Calling someone handsome is considered rude? I thought its a compliment. |

QUOTE(Sophiera @ Feb 12 2015, 11:19 PM) I personally become very uncomfortable is someone within my age range calls me Leng Lui. Even if the dude is super handsome? If it's an old auntie call me Leng Lui I take it as a compliment. If a guy (young and old especially drunk) call me Leng Lui I'm like WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU. Long story short, you need to 'Read the air' a.k.a know your situation Please keep to formal/standard terms until you know how to casual. Because you might accidentally offend someone. That's for Chinese right? I'll bet for other races, you have another set of terms. Kepala ku pusing banget dong. |
