Where I live, in 鳳凰市, there is a language spoken called "O'odham". At first people had said "This language is difficult for us to write. We can write a few sentences, but no more, and even that is difficult." so they use mostly English instead. But then some people, with a bit of practice, are writing long essays and books and articles in O'odham language, and after people practice and it is no longer difficult, it is used for business, newspaper, and even on road signs.

I can't see how special it is ,the lyric is very common among minnan songs.The words can be found in minnan dict.It is not that we are studying strange words from minnan song books created during ming period.
See this master degree for some points.The theories could be absolutely wrong.Just be careful about it

Hong,
Thanks for your messages. You are right, this lyric is very common among Hokkian songs.
This poem is write in Mandarin speaking by a poetess, name Su Theng. We borrow it for the aim to have a chance in the bilingual "practice of sentence making" in Hokkian speaking only. The junior learners of Hokkian speaking could compare the "sentence making" in the Mandarin and Hokkian. They could distinguished the "sentence making" in these two speaking.
The words can be found in Hokkian dictionaries which could help the junior learners to write the right, or suitable Hokkian sentence. There are many native Hokkian speakers could not know how to write their native speaking in the "written language", this "practice of sentence making" is hope to help them, and I wish everybody could provide their points to this topic.
Those strange words from Hokkian song books we may be post in a new thread for discussion. I hope to know more about these strange words and wish somebody could post them for the public discussion.
