@chu @skinnylatte
I learnt about 東干話 on the other day..mind blowing

@skinnylatte 🤔 I guess this is not quite "hug"
When @chu was talking about 攬
I was thinking about this:

@skinnylatte @chu Ah that is interesting! Would you be able to give a n sentence?🙏 I believe I would say 我抱囝仔 （I carry the kid/infant)

@chu wow this is so good, I was literally thinking about Hoklo/Hokkie; You are right in Taiwanese Hoklo we also use 攬 lam such as 我偕伊攬 （I hug him/her) , is this the same for Teochew (cue @skinnylatte here sorry)?
So 抱 as hug must be Mandarin

@Tamami thanks to my parents, they kept it. It is now a bit of antiques as soon after my graduation there was a textbook reform and these old style were abandoned (partly because it is too China centric )

@skinnylatte I would really want your take on their recent interview about ongoing socio-situation of Chinese ethic in Malaysia 🙏

For those who think biological human sex is clear cut, worth reading this figure from the 2017 Scientific American again 🙏 #nonbinary
