Oh Jimmy don't get them wrong. every country has their own unique way of communication. Malay/ Chinese dialect in Malaysia is a good example.
You understand i understand then ok. If You don't, it will be fun to learn new knowledge

malaysian cantonese influence by multiple local dialect like hakka and hokkien
thats why sounds different compared to pure HK canto, heck even HK canto is different from Shenzhen Canto which is seperated just by a bridge

some of the stuff are got historical reason why they are called that way
ice tea for example back then, kopitiam would order huge ass ice block, shave them to make iced tea, which in a form looks like snow, so they call it xu cha, however with the intro of cheap ice cubes where they would spend it on just plain water thus come the term peng shui

wait till you discover why hokkien for raining sounds the way it sounds

Ping char not used at all

Suet sui used a lot
Never ping sui

Dunno who he toking to
But surely not pure Cantonese person

Easier to distingush hot and cold tea cha suet, yit cha.
Yat qian maybe slang for yat qin in cantonese since ipoh alot of hakka.
