China

China’s National Day falls on 1st October every year and we call this National Day as:

Gog4kêng3 Zoih4

國慶節|国庆节

China’s National Day

On this day, Chinese people celebrate the founding of the People’s Republic of China and PRC is said in Teochew Uê as:

Dong1hua5 Nang5ming5 Gang7hua5 Gog4

中華人民共和國|中华人民共和国

People’s Republic of China

Before the founding of the People’s Republic of China, China was known as from 1911 to 1949:

Dong1hua5 Ming5gog4

中華民國|中华民国

Republic of China

Dong1hua5

中華|中华

China [formal name of China]

Nang5ming5

人民

Gang7hua5

共和

republic

Gog4

國|国

ming5gog4

民國|民国

I think we should know the formal name of China at the very least and we say our homeland as zou2gog4.

zou2gog4

祖國|祖国

homeland, motherland, fatherland
