定定 dian7dian7

Do listen to this video, in which the mother said:

cuê7 dian7dian覓定定|觅定定

to find or search carefully

找仔細|找仔细

There is another example of such expression which I have discussed previously in another post. 

toin2 dian7 dian睇定定

see clearly

看清楚

It seems that we can use dian7 dian7 when we have a Verb + dian7 dian7 to mean carefully or clearly.

The film linked above is an old film and they speak with Swatow accent. I have watched it couple of times and I hope you can find the film from the beginning and watch the 17 short videos. It has a happy ending.
