Trendy/slang[edit]

How did a word meaning "Teochew language" acquire the meaning of "trendy word; popular slang"? 204.11.186.190 13:07, 10 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

Different etymologies. I've added it to the entry. —suzukaze (tc) 13:12, 10 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

Maybe it's because can mean "wave" (like a wave of popularity). 204.11.186.190 16:34, 11 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
