Hanji pronunciations in Taiwanese

Re: Hanji pronunciations in Taiwanese
Xng, in this forum you really are "unique" 獨一無二. Being here for so many years, I never met anyone who is so "confident"... in the wrong way, unfortunately...xng wrote: Just because your family used 'Hong' doesn't mean it is correct. Just like many people use 'suka',
'pun' and thinks it is hokkien.
eg.I can give a lot of wrong hokkien usage in Msia/Singapore but you should be smarter than me to find out yourself.
If you cannot read carefully what other people wrote and are ever so ready to belittle others, how can we take you seriously?
Although some (only some, surely neither most nor all!) of what you wrote are correct, your attitude spoils everything. Here we do not need a perfect Hokkien prof (there's none anyway), neither are we claiming to be experts. If you are open enough to see how at ease and mutually beneficial all the others' postings are, shouldn't you ask yourself why? 愛人者,人恆愛之;敬人者,人恆敬之。Who is the 'frog' around here, the best way is for you to go to Taiwan and ask a learned old Hokkien sifu there.
