Chinese. Rfv-sense: "(Cantonese, humorous) Starbucks". google:"間兜巴星": there's two usages in Oriental Daily (both by the same author in the same year), but overall only 22 ghits counting repetitions. I believe that since the usages in Oriental Daily are in standard written Chinese, the LDL rule for Cantonese should not apply here even though this sense is labelled as Cantonese. – Wpi31 (talk) 15:39, 28 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

As a native speaker I sometimes hear this expression Mahogany115 (talk) 13:58, 29 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
I would include this in LDL because it's regional Chinese (even if it's used in standard written Chinese in those regions). (I wonder if we should label it as Hong Kong rather than Cantonese.) I see some usage on forums. I'll try to pull some quotes. — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 14:32, 29 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Wpi31 Citations:兜巴星. I think we can pull the "other online sources" clause here. — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 16:50, 29 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
