QUOTE(Contestant @ Oct 14 2017, 08:19 PM) Your mum is Penang Hokkien? My mum not penang lang but she speaks 漳州閩南, and we always say penang hokkien is a variance of 漳州閩南.The other words: Perng, her, xi, kuei, kuei, kerng, keng, ger I speculate your mum will say Pui, huei, se-eh, keh, keh, kerng, keng, gui  Last time I went to penang and order some food from hawker. The aunty asked me if I want some "hu", I was like wtf is "hu" but still I acted calm and said "okay la can can".  Later when she served the food, I looked into the bowl and realized penang hu = hi = hw (or "her" like you wrote). 魚 la.  |

i'm not chinese, but my family live among chinese, but seldom interact using chinese with them. we prefer to interact using our mother tongue (becos the chinese here also are good in our mother tongue)
learn that chinese have so many dialects. tried to learn some words, esp counting, but sometimes other chinese friends would say we are talking in other dialect. now got confused ardy. how to overcome this 'mild' phobia - dowan to put efforts learning the usual dialect here? our place here have a lot of hakka, hokkien, (and what they name as "keck" chinese (?) and very few foochow speakers. the foochow friends would speak in the 'local' chinese dialects here. my apology for not knowing much about chinese dialect and 'ethnic'.
