just learnt a new word, “gig4 uang5 結丸｜结丸”

I have just learnt a new word, “gig4 uang5 結丸｜结丸”

Iab Hui 葉飛 said:

gia1 hung2zui2 loh8ke3

加粉水落去

Add the starch solution

loh8ke3 ao6 ziag4si5 dioh8 la6

落去後即時著撓

have to stir immediately after adding

si6bho5 siu6riag8 gig4 uang5 ke3

是無受熱結丸去

or else upon heating it will become lumpy.

Iab Hui said gêg4 uang5 and I do not know why a man from Swatow would have a Gig’Ion揭陽 accent. I have now heard him said a number of words with a Gig’Ion accent and perhaps his ancestors were from Gig’Ion and moved into Swatow at a later period or perhaps he has many friends from Gig’Ion.
