Re: Penang Hokkien lessons
What can I say? First, kudos to everyone for working on behalf of "the Hokkien language". There is good, free information on Tye's website, just unfortunately filtered through an irregular and unreliable "system" of spellings, if it can be called that. Nothing personal, just that irregular "systems"...

Re: videos with poj/tâi-lô subtitles?

Let me know if U ...

Re: "Malay Lexicalized Items in Penang Peranakan Hokkien"
Yeah, overall "quality of scholarship" is kind of disappointing for a modern paper. I kind of take exception to the authors treating Kedah Malay as if it was "not really Malay". But yeah, still useful for some things.

"Malay Lexicalized Items in Penang Peranakan Hokkien"
Interesting paper. The list at the end is like a hit list. Maybe these are the kind of words that "north of the border" Malays would know.

Re: Medhurst, Si̍p-ngó͘ Im and Chiang-chiu Phonology
While I also observe a trend that things above all are supposed to look pompous and not necessarily beautiful, I’m not quite sure how that relates to the topic of script-unification. U would have to first agree -- only of your own free will -- that the "MOE Hokkien aesthetic" is based on "Modern St...
