You hear A’Bêh saying to A’Hang in this video:
zu2dong6 |
主動|主动 |
to take an
initiative |
The opposite of taking an initiative is:
cig4ia5 toin2
boih4ia5 , di1du1 toin2
la5ia5 七爺睇八爺,蜘蛛睇蟧蜈 |
So, what is a di1du1 and what is a la5ia5?
Di1du1 is a spider and la5ia5 is a long-legged spider.
We know this character 蜈 as ghê5 in ghê5gang1 蜈蚣 to mean a centipede.
The Hokkien people in Taiwan say 蟧蜈
la5ia5 as lâ-giâ.
