假力洗茶渣

Let us listen to Professor Lim Lung Lung talking about a couple of our sayings. 

gê2 lag8 soi2 dê5 za1 假力洗茶渣 has the same meaning as lag8loh8 m6dui3 si3  力落唔對勢|力落唔对势

Professor Lim said that someone who is not good at doing something or does not do things well can be said as gê2 lag8 soi2 dê5 za1 fake ability to wash tea dregs and we normally call tea dregs as dê5poh4 茶粕。

lag8loh8 力落

diligent, industrious, hardworking

qin2lao2 勤勞勤劳

m6dui3 not appropriate

si3 situation 

lag8loh8 m6dui3 si3 - diligence not appropriate for the situation
