Learning Hokkien is easy
Monday, 27 April 2009
There was a story about a grandfather who was taking a walk below a HDB flat with his grand son and someone threw a can from the flat and hit his head. The grand father felt giddy and told his grandson to go upstairs and tell the person that the can hit his head and he was giddy.
His grandson said he does not know how to speak Hokkien.
So the grandfather told him to say thus:
“ Gong Gong (grandfather) gong (says), gong (a can) gong (hit) gong gong (Grandfather)! Gong gong (grandfather) gong gong (giddy).
