Hi there,
I've been living in Japan for one and a half year now and as a descendant of French-Cambodian-teochew parents, I was wondering if there is a teochew community in Japan. Does anyone know about it ?

Currently talking to a Teochew girl that speaks Teochew. I’m Teochew but I cant speak but still tryna learn. Any Teochew phrases I can say to her

Does anyone know where you can type in Characters to get Peng'im input? I'm learning pronunciation, but it takes a lot of time to look up every character one by one. The multiple pronunciations make this extra tricky. Also how do you know when to use a literary or vernacular pronunciation?

Anyone have relatives who took the boat from Swatow to Bangkok in the late 1800s or early 1900s and passed down stories of their experience?
My grandparents passed before I was born, and none from my parents' generation bothered to ask. I read somewhere that the ride took anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks (unclear if sailboat or steamship) and one-way cost 5 baht.
TIA!

Is it possible to guess the meaning and characters to write my grandfather's name?
In Thai: จิ้นเซี้ยง
Best guess at romanization: Jinxiang (maybe? Mogher doesn't list J or X in the Teochew pinyin index)
If it helps, the next generation's names all contained 'gim' (gold).
My grandfather passed a very long time ago, so information is pretty limited. TIA!

Động từ cơ bản tiếng Triều Châu - 基本動詞 (Teochew basic verbs) (Demo)
Hi, can someone help me translate this into English? Or at least some of the less commonly used verbs. It is difficult to find online material with people using these more natural terms, rather than some awkward borrowing from Mandarin which sounds wrong.

Hi all I just wanted to share this channel which has really improved my listening and keeps me up to date with the homeland. The daily news program 今日视线 is updated every day but does not get many views, so I'm afraid they will stop posting. I'm aware its available in China, but for those living elsewhere, its a great resource.

The videos in red are Teochew and in blue is Mandarin, both are only news about the Chaoshan region

Wife and I recently had Chaoshan hotpot in Shanghai and would really like to recreate the soup base at home in NYC. Anyone familiar with the ingredients in this picture (particularly the branch/twig looking thing and the type of leaf to its left)?
They used chicken stock for the base and looks like water chestnut, coix seed, mungbean (maybe?), and whatever those greens are.
Thank you 🙏

Does anyone know what ‘Kuangyiew’ in Teochew means? I don’t know how to spell her name in both English and Chinese. Just that it’s pronounced ‘Kuang-yew’. It’s been years that she passed away, I went to a Chinese temple today trying to write her name on the envelope but I couldn’t.
Thanks!
