Singaporean Hokkien in UK. 'Father' tongue Hokkien Eng Chun - now rotting away due to lack of pratice. (Mother tongue Cantonese.)

Am from S'pore as well. However, my native dialect'd have to be Hainanese although I am vastly more proficient in Teochew.

Nonetheless, both 'Min-nan' tongues.

It is very strange siingapore minnan dict didn't include the word chuann3 灿 for 骄傲。It is in 厦门 dict anyway.
I think we pronunce as 31 or 42.

Hi all,

Chinese Indonesian originally from Medan, Indonesia.

Niuc - Bagansiapiapi was where my grandma was born! Never thought I'd hear someone who knows the island let alone came from there.

Hi Yuxian

Nice to hear from you. Are you in Indonesia? Actually there are many people from Bagansiapiapi living in Medan, Jakarta and other places. Btw it is not an island, it's a town at the eastern part of Sumatra (Riau province).
