Talk:番鹼

Teochew

[1] lists a hûan-káng (I believe this is huang5 gang2 in the Guangdong whatever scheme). huang5 doesn't match online databases that says 番 = huang1. —suzukaze (t・c) 04:25, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

This thread says huang-kiⁿ (huang1 gin1) (番碱). —suzukaze (t・c) 10:16, 28 April 2016 (UTC)

And the Min Nan Wikipedia says that another name for sap-bûn is hoan-kiⁿ (番梘). —suzukaze (t・c) 10:27, 28 April 2016 (UTC)

According to THCWD, kiⁿ should be 鹼, so it may be used in some dialects of Min Nan, but it's not certain which ones. It's probably not used in Hokkien. — justin(r)leung _{{ (t...) | c=› }} 21:10, 28 April 2016 (UTC)

Well, maybe in some dialects of Hokkien, like 雲霄 as mentioned in the link above. — justin(r)leung _{{ (t...) | c=› }} 21:12, 28 April 2016 (UTC)

番𪉿 hwn-káng; foreign soap. —Suzukaze-c (talk) 07:20, 9 April 2021 (UTC)

classifier: 嚿

Presumably this applies only to bar soap. —Suzukaze-c (talk) 22:22, 6 November 2020 (UTC)

@Suzukaze-c: Yup. — justin(r)leung _{{ (t...) | c=› }} 00:29, 7 November 2020 (UTC)

@Justinrleung: Is adding narrower subsenses "# bar soap" and "# liquid soap" to 肥皂 (féizào) and dialectal synonyms appropriate? —Suzukaze-c (talk) 00:25, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

@Suzukaze-c: I don't think so. It's kind of splitting hairs for this term, which is a cover term for any kind of soap. — justin(r)leung _{{ (t...) | c=› }} 00:52, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
