Guests: Motoleng, Ban Chang Kuey & Kam Pui
Ban Chang Kuey brought with him a list of Hokkien curse words. And Motoleng and Kam Pui also brought their own list and explanations of Chao Ua. Everyone has something to share when it comes to Chao Ua. We also took a poll on how many people used Chao Ua, and how many don’t. Listen to our guests’ opinion on the poll.
Kim Hu will join us next time, he had a family emergency before our recording.
CHAO UA again r !!! i lovely this topic la, good show john 😛
it’s good to have chao ua topic like this, more like a discussion than actually swearing
Ah Chew, I agree. That has always been my intention for doing Chao Ua’s shows. These are words that we don’t typically proudly discuss when we talk about a language. And things that we don’t talk about may not get passed on to the future generations. Then we’ll have the filtered version, and in the future, things would get into a different form. I think it’s worth discussing, whether or not you think cursing is bad. Curse words are part of every language. It’s only human.
Plus, we can all get a good laugh. And for some, a good shock!
next time should talk about curse words in other dialects?eg. cantonese, teochew, hakka… some terms may sound like chao ua but actually not.. so it’d be fun to explore that!
haha !! Nice show !!
