Talk:新山

Philippine Hokkien

@Mar vin kaiser I asked some people why 新山 (sin-soaⁿ) is a cemetery, when it's supposed to mean "new mountain". They told me it's not 新, but 先, as in (sin-soaⁿ or sian-soaⁿ), because it was the mountain of the old that came before. What do you think?--Mlgc1998 (talk) 15:36, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

@Mlgc1998: The character 先 does not have a pronunciation that is "sin". And no one says "sian-soaⁿ". --Mar vin kaiser (talk) 04:52, 31 December 2019 (UTC)
