roast pork

The guy in the video is shouting about some smoked pork and he has used some interesting Teochew words.

huê2tuan3

火炭

charcoal, charcoal embers, burning coals

kao2

to bake, to roast, to smoke

The normal Teochew word is sio1 or buê7

mêng2 gê1 gua3 rig8 liah8 lai5 loh8 dou6

In Swatow, people would say miang2 instead of mêng2

免加幾日掠來落肚免加几日掠来落肚

No need for a few days, will be able to buy and eat

We normally understand liah8 to mean to catch but in this case, it means to buy.

loh8 dou6 literal meaning means to enter into one’s stomach and its actual meaning means to eat

Ru2 tion2 ru2 sing1sêg4

愈睇愈新色

The more one looks at it, the more fresh it looks.

sing1sêg4 means fresh looking said of food
