In the past, and occasionally today, when friends knew you were Teochew, they often sang a ditty about how a private body part was red. No one quite knows the origin or composer of this politically incorrect ditty. While this ditty has not been included, this book features the Teochew equivalent of everyday objects, and provides the perfect introduction for the uninitiated as well as the ideal refresher for those who would like to get reconnected with this dialect.
