Cantonese Slangs - Airplanes and Flying

[00:00:00]Why is airplane in Cantonese so dirty?

[00:00:03]Airplane in Cantonese is fakey. Da. Da is a word for hit or a very versatile word to make an action like da ha chi to sneeze, da ham lo to yawn, you know? Da ding wa to call like to something, yeah?

[00:00:21]But if you use da and then fakey, hit airplane be careful now. That means to jerk off.

[00:00:31]>> [screaming] >> Yes.

[00:00:33]Masturbation.

[00:00:34]>> Yeah. But through that there are words like fakey booy.

[00:00:41]Obviously if not that obvious.

[00:00:44]Booy booy means That means flashlight.

[00:00:49]Yeah.

[00:00:51]It's just important to know in case you come across, right? I I don't want to teach dirty words or whatever, but you're going to come across people like this. I grew up in Macau. I went to Chinese local schools and >> [music] >> my classmates, especially the boys, they'd be saying these kind of things and you need to know right from wrong.

[00:01:08]So, just know. But there are more.

[00:01:12]>> [laughter] >> There is also fakey cheung, which means airport, right?

[00:01:18]But somehow it became the meaning of flat chest. Yeah?

[00:01:24]Flat chested. So, if someone says oh fakey cheung, which is kind of rude, pretty rude actually. Not kind of, it's very rude.

[00:01:34]Opposite would be da bo bo. But that's for another lesson. Now, let's go to the not dirty part of fakey. There's also the sentence fong fakey.

[00:01:44]For a child it sounds like you're about to release the airplane, right? A paper airplane.

[00:01:51]However, if someone says someone else fong fakey, that means they're flaky.

[00:01:58]That means they ditch someone. Like if you go like quit phone or fakey.

[00:02:03]She fly my airplane and like she left the plan, basically. Or if the plan?

[00:02:12]Like when you're traveling, right? Top fakey. Top means to take.

[00:02:18]You know, like I top soon. So, you can go Lau Yeuk. Uh when are you taking a flight to New York?

[00:02:31]Hurry up and fly over here.

[00:02:34]Fay also means tickets. Like my fay and my fay.

[00:02:40]You can also use the word fay when you want to break up with someone. You can also say Jaw makes verbs into past tense in spoken Cantonese, by the way. Fay jaw her la makes it into a suggestion. So, fay jaw her la is break up with him la.

[00:03:04]Fay jaw dump. I guess it's more like dump. To dump him.

[00:03:08]Fun fact, dump.

[00:03:10]The word to throw trash in Cantonese is thumb laap saap. Thumb.

[00:03:16]Like dump. Is that English or Cantonese, huh?

[00:03:19]Fay jaw her can also mean like skip [music] that, like if an ad pops up on YouTube and you're like fay jaw her.

[00:03:26]Skip that.

[00:03:28]I guess that makes sense for breaking up, like skip them. Thank you, next.

[00:03:41]And if you want to throw something you can go fay belly. Like fay throw.

[00:03:49]That can mean throw. Cooper can say fay go ball go lay la.

[00:03:54]That's what he would say.

[00:03:59]Don't be confused with the word fat, which is fei.

[00:04:03]All right? If you see the word fei gei It's a very complicated word looking, see?

[00:04:10]Gei radical is wood and the right side is gei siu go gei yu.

[00:04:20]Like questions you use that a lot like how many, but then with the wood it becomes gei.

[00:04:26]The more you know. Like and subscribe for more.

[00:04:31]Can you think of any more ways to use the word fei?
