A song for while one is having a bath

洗浴歌

Another nursery rhyme and this time the child who is reciting the nursery rhyme has a Swatow accent.

soi2êg8 go1

洗浴歌

zêg8 no6 san1 soi1êg8 miang2 cêng7 san1

一二三洗浴免穿衫

san1 si3 ngou6 sing1ti2 doin7 guê3 dua7 zioh8bou6

三四五 身體橂過大石部

Bathing song

One two three does not have to wear any clothes while having a bath

Three four five – the body is harder than a large rock

Rock in Teochew is said as zioh8bou6

We have already discussed doin7 in a previous post.

You can now say this nursery rhyme to your children while you are bathing them.
