a good sign that parents are no longer using such terms on kids :imcool:
it has evolved into a light-hearted discussion of the many 'funny' terms used by our old folks on us, and which we have not heard for ages.. seems like many of us belong to the same era.. brings back fond memories...

we dont use such terms on our kids. But i dont mind my parents using them on me . Come to think of it, its quite endearing actually. Maybe its bcos i cant hear them saying it anymore.. :sad: -

My hokkien dh also say the same thing. But I thot there is a difference. \"haotai\" mean \"act smart\" and \"haolian\" mean \"show off\". No?
My hubby said \"haotai\" = \"haolian\".firefly38:
strparent, what is \"haotai\" uh? does not sound like a very nice word to describe the GEPpers leh.. :roll:
Used to heard \"peh jin\" (white eye) = \"stupid\" from my aunt. But it is no longer in used today.
Still hear \"gong sai\" this day. -

[/quote]He claimed that was the way he heard people use it. But I think you are probably right about \"haotai\" being \"act smart\". -
Maybe a good idea that we teach the kids some dialect so that they don’t forget their roots.
After PSLE is a good idea.
Anyway think we have gone OT really big time already in last few pages LOL.
