#1 Post at 18-11-2007 23:30  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Poontang Not sure if this qualifies as a joke.....I had a meeting in a hotel yesterday and outside the ballroom there was a sign announcing a wedding going on between a Mr XXXX Poon and Ms YYYY Tang....the heading was Poon-Tang....being from North America I found this real-life joke to be hilarious....

#12 Post at 19-11-2007 17:04  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Reply #11 Marsupial's post Cantonese pronunciation is "Wu Lei". I just realize that the wife's surname is Wu. So I guess it wouldn't be 'fox', since her surname would be behind her husband's. [ Last edited by  escritic at 19-11-2007 17:07 ]

#13 Post at 19-11-2007 21:11  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Well, as the topic here is funny Chinese names, let me offer this. Saw this name decades ago on a TST bronze door plate: Wan Fat Kok  (One fat cock) Even took a snap of it, but it's long gone. Italian is full of absurd names like Strozzini (the loan sharks), Meschini (petty people), and they mean these things in Italian!! 孔子曰： 君子不羞于舔屄也

#16 Post at 19-11-2007 23:55  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Reply #15 Sulasno888's post Yeah, I brought up the 'Delay No More' slogan before.  It was funny because, I'd read in the newspaper that it meant something rude in Cantonese so I asked my wife what it meant. She had no idea what I was talking about. So I said it in a way that I thought a Cantonese speaker would say it (I know a little Cantonese). Suddenly her eyes widened and she was shocked. And then she told me. I was really surprised that she could understand my pronunciation.

#17 Post at 20-11-2007 20:50  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Poor guy Years ago I patted a local friend on the shoulder after he had lost a lot of money on the races and said "poor guy"....there were several other local friends in the group and they all burst out laughing and repeated "poor guy, poor guy" and the first guy said" yeah, I really poor guy"....but he pronounced it more like "pook guy" and they all seemed to think this was really funny....can anyone explain what this was all about? Does "pook guy" mean something in Chinese, or what? If so, what does it mean that was so funny?

#19 Post at 20-11-2007 23:08  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Reply #17 Siklong69's post The more accurate pronunciation is 'poke guy' is like a semi profanity. The literate meaning is 'fallen (by tripping) street'. It's a slang for name calling. You can also add 'sei' in front of the slang and it becomes 'sei poke guy'. 'Sei' means die or death. I don't think there is really any real meaning to it beside ill wishing. It's like another name calling 'sei xhian'. The literate meaning is 'die shovel'. Does it really have a real meaning behind it? I don't think so. Let's try this one, 'hum ka xhian'. The literate meaning is 'all family shovel'. It's another ill wishing which translates to wishing your whole family die. Interesting, isn't it? Cantonese is full of slangs like that. I would like to think of Cantonese as the language king of slang and profanity. lol
