Anybody know what the Hokkien version of rock paper scissors is?
Just decided to start learning something from the SIno-Tibetan family but I'm not sure where to start. So I'm wondering whatever I choose to specialize in would it help smoothen the transition into other languages of China and even outside the traditional Sino-Sphere like Karenic and Zeme? How mutually intelligible would languages in this family be with each other assuming a bunch of random people from across China, Burma, and India who speak them suddenly gets transported into a bar? Does ease of learning another specific family in the branch depends on proximity of the place of origins of the specific languages known and being studied? Is it similar to the Indo-European family where say someone who grew up as Dutch native would have a much much much harder time learning Farsi than learning English? And Pole would quickly transition in Russia quicker than trying to learn Gaelic and same with a New Dehli inhabitant learning Punjabi would find Romanian more time consuming? Something like that for native speakers of the Sino-TIbetan branch trying to learn other family members like Cantonese would find Mandarin far easier than Jingpho and Olekha?

Struggling to find any audio of how to pronounce this word, all I have is it spelled out phonetically as kôe-chiap, but want to make sure I'm saying it right if someone wouldn't mind sharing a clip of how it's pronounced. Thank you in advance!
