即使是有关新加坡街名的文章，作者也常提出与众不同的看法。勿拉士峇沙路（Bras Basah Road）就是一个很好的例子。作者对这些现有的诠释都不满意，他于是参考了历史地图与马来古籍，从《阿都拉自传》以及《马来纪年》寻找答案，从中发现了新加坡拉亡国史有关“湿米”的典故以及已经消失的“新加坡溪”（Parit Singapura），提出此河后来易名为“湿米河”的见解，并且指出其现今的所在地，将新加坡史推向莱佛士前的年代。丰富了我们对新加坡的历史知识。他的另一篇有关牛车水（Kereta Ayer）地名的由来也是同类的文章，使人读了好像是上了一堂历史课。这本书里有关源自闽南话的各种词汇的诠释的文章非常丰富，例如“怕输”、“吃蛇”、“大粒人”和“阿官”等都很特出，有关已经消失的“财副”、“总哺”、“公班衙”、“地牛”、“亲丁”等词汇的历史也引人入胜。“猫步不是步”和有关“苦力”的新解的文章再次展现出作者深厚的功力。
