Le Si Hokkien Lang, wa si teo chew nang (kak kek nang pung)

I didn't know there were blogs dedicated to urm...the development of Hokkien dialect (particularly Penang). It seemed quite difficult to read the words and understand them - but then again, I'm not a Hokkien, definitely no Penang background as well.

Hok kuu bo tah teo chew ewh, bei hiao tah liow lor pak jik. Si le ai hiow tak wa seah si mi kai na jiou ko seah jik siahh nah 'comments' gor. Pak jik chai ki!

Hehe trying translating that ;p

Till the end of exams -- bye
