Any advice?

Does anyone know what ‘Kuangyiew’ in Teochew means? I don’t know how to spell her name in both English and Chinese. Just that it’s pronounced ‘Kuang-yew’. It’s been years that she passed away, I went to a Chinese temple today trying to write her name on the envelope but I couldn’t.

Thanks!

My daughter is engaged into an Aussie-Teochew speaking family. The wedding is in planning stages at the moment and will be an asian-aussie fusion, and thus I will 100% be called on to give a speech.

Obviously the family speaks English but the older members of my SiL's family are very much Teochew speaking.

Any help that can be offered for suitable welcome and thank you phrases for the Grooms side of the family would be appreciated. If there's a video you guys know of on line etc, please point the way.

I speak Mandarin and a bit of Cantonese already so am fingers crossed that I can not trip over my own tongue, and will delve into the YouTube videos on line for common greetings and phrases I can use for the older members of the grooms family as we circulate etc

What is the Teochew word for "drink"? Is it the same as "eat" (jiak/ciak)?

For context, I'm Chinese-Indonesian who speak Teochew with my own family, and also there is a sizeable Hokkien community in where I live. They said the word "eat" the same way the Teochews say it, but the word "drink" as "lim/nim", and I realize as someone who speak Teochew in Indonesia, I always say the word "drink" as "eat" AKA jiak/ciak. Is there a word specifically for "drink" in Teochew?

Hi iam in my twenties and haven’t been able to meet anyone yet who also speaks Teochew. It kinda seems like all the new generation only speak mandarin anymore. If anyone would like to make some friends that share similar cultures pls let me know 🥲

It is great a shame that many younger Thai-Chinese is abandon they heritages. I am maybe a rare ones, I hope one day younger generation will know hardship of being Teochew or Thai-Chinese in the past. Here it is my new Teochew name Ng (surname) Laohoun. Since none of family don't know how to name me, since my laogong past away before me. To translation it, Yellow Tigers or I could be wrong. The reason I name myself like this, because I was born in year of Tigers, as I said none of family member don't know how to name me in Chinese.
