Hanzi for these words?

Post by jilang »

Hi

I don't know much hanzi for Hokkien so if you know any of these can you give it?

a - turns statement into question
lim - drink
ki guan chenk - machine gun
siao - crazy
gong - stupid
gau - smart
bai - part of the names of the week (eg: bai it as monday)
be - yet

Thanks

You've uploaded lots of stuff for this forum and I don't really look through it all because there'es way too much and the main problem is that my Chinese is very bad and I'm not good with romanization and also the ones in the documents you provided look strange. I'll look through it to try and find it but I'd still appreciate people telling me because searching through tose large documents for specific words could take a while. Thanks anyway.

So if anybody knows any of the words could you please tell me?
Also, what's the hanzi for "teng suann" meaning China?

No,there are no correct hanzi for gong if we follow the spelling in the old dict.Some say it is just 愚 gu become gong.

I got it off a book, cannot remember which one. Could be wrong. You can correct me if you have a more reliable source.
