moves at a lightning speed

There is a drought here in Southern England and the news was reporting about whirlwind found in the plains. I was thinking how do we say whirlwind in Teochew Uê and it is said as piao1 飆|飙。

However, piao1 飆|飙 has a Teochew meaning.

ziah4 cia1 piao1 gao3 guê3 mên2

隻車飆到過猛|只车飙到过猛

The car moves at a very fast speed.

You now know another word “piao1”! If you want to hear how to say piao1, click on the link I have created and then click on the sound button for piao1.
