Philippine Hokkien

[edit]

@Mlgc1998 As far as I know, that word is only for food. Are you sure it's also used for the human body? --Mar vin kaiser (talk) 03:26, 22 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Mar vin kaiser I was asking around about this and the sentiment is that it is usually about food but may also technically mean the rib for the human body. If you're unsure, you can try asking around in your area there too if there's a more accurate term there for the rib of the body. I wager terms for human body parts in Ph Hokkien is more of the realm of hokkien-speaking doctors, so likely they would use such terms more. --Mlgc1998 (talk) 04:04, 22 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
