Talk:屋仔

room?

@H2NCH2COOH I cannot find references that say Meixian 屋仔 can refer to a room. Are you sure about this sense? RcAlex36 (talk) 12:38, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

Pretty sure. It is used frequently by my family, and it can be attested in 张维耿's 客家话词典. However, I am not sure if this is a dialectical usage. --H₂NCH₂COOH (Talk) 12:41, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

@H2NCH2COOH: Interestingly, the second edition called 客家方言标准音词典 removed the "room" sense. I'm not sure what this implies. RcAlex36 (talk) 12:45, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

@H2NCH2COOH: May I ask which part of Meixian is your family from? RcAlex36 (talk) 12:52, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

Baidu Town (白渡镇), but moved to downtown Meixian decades ago, and then moved to Guangzhou. --H₂NCH₂COOH (Talk) 12:55, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi @H2NCH2COOH, just curious, do you pronounce 水 and 少 as "se3" and "seu3" respectively? such as in 松口鎮. Tomascus (talk) 13:06, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

少 as seu3, yes. 水 (sui3) as se3, no. --H₂NCH₂COOH (Talk) 13:08, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
