dialect is the feature of each of our places, telling interesting stories about your dialect.
Cantonese dialect: Stealing chicken = lazy
I was resting at home and received a call from a local friend in Guangdong, wanting to make an appointment for lunch together.
I looked at the time and said, "Don't you have to go to work today?"
He said, "I went to 'steal the chicken' in the morning, and rushed back to work in the afternoon!"
I said, "I live a free life and have leisure to steal chickens. Where did I go? Is it an authentic native chicken? Don't act alone next time, take me to steal chickens." The friend on the other end of the phone was already so angry that he was laughing: "This is not the other is stealing chicken. You have lived in Guangdong for so many years, and you don't even know what it is to steal chickens. When I went to steal chickens in the morning, I just slacked off and didn't go to work. I asked for leave. Do you understand?"
I laughed and said, "I understand!"
Think about it, I have lived in this city for so many years!
Sichuan dialect: Children = shoes
The first year a northerner came to work in the south, and his colleagues looked for her "children" everywhere after waking up from lunch break.
I was sleepy and thought I was wrong: "What are you looking for? Your child?"
colleague said, "Yes, strange, why is my child missing?"
yawned and I woke up instantly and asked stammeringly: "Your child? When did you have children, how old did you have?"
colleague looked at me in a daze after hearing this: "I just bought it, it's 38 size."
I was completely confused: "I just bought it? The child's 38 size? What does it mean?
At this time, the beautiful girl next to me was already smiling so hard that her waist could not stand up: "She was looking for her 'shoes', don't you know? They call their shoes children in Sichuan. ”
