Special thanks to Penangknia for his guidance in Chinese text.

Guests: Ah Tox, Pek Lu Lu, & Ah Leng (Dragon)

This is a continuation of a previous episode PH#65 Siao Lien Keh (少年家). I started a lot of conversations among friends and family about games they used to play growing up. And that includes some a little bit older than 30’s. But it’s fun to see the huge difference our childhood games changed. Share your own experience and stories in our Penang Hokkien forum.

Lend a Helping Hokkien Voice

Below is a message from one of our listeners. I am offering myself as a subject for the studies. I hope you would help her too. Send and email to her if you’re interested: ( her email is sl2@rice.edu )
==================
Hi Penangnites

I am a graduate student at Rice University. I am looking to provide an account of Penang Hokkien’s sound system – tone etc, which has not been done thoroughly before. So I am looking for native Penang Hokkien speakers who might want to help me. Basically, I will provide a list of words and phrases which you read and record. You will need to be able to record onto your computer or at least digitally and then send the file to me. Unless you are in Houston. In this case, I can come to you or arrange to meet.

Thanks
Sarah
