goodness me, there's a teochew youth organisation based in the states. one of their members came across one of my no teochew! misere me! entries and sent me a link to their group,which name, gaginang, cracks me up. check it out, von, tjan, choonping...any of you teochew nang! actually, my quibble with it is that it doesn't say anything about teochew food, so how can any of us be interested? i quite like the section on romanisation though; that'll help a lot in preservation of texts, and in standardisation so that i might write someone a teochew transliterated email. minyin wrote me a hokkien letter once and just making out the approximations was hysterically funny. i should talk to choonping more often.
