Requests
Hi, I wish to add 喊驚 to the request list. I think it is part of history in HK; it is still practiced by the old people and the term itself is still used in general speech. For example, in the movie Shaolin Soccer, after Stephen Chow sing that crazy song in the restaurant with Wong Yut Fei, the triad members said the following:
「你 地 唱 咩 呀 ? 唱 到 喊 驚 咁 !!」 「啲 歌 詞 又 鬼 五 馬 六 !!」
Some background info: 喊驚 is the "chinese magic" that people do to clam people who have been suprised / shocked, e.g. a car crashes into the wall in front of him, etc. I think it is some kind of chinese rituals or spells to summon's the guy's 三魂七魄, which are scared away by the suprise.
Comments, anyone? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Granzo (talk • contribs) Aprl 23, 2007
The page, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Yat-sen, has an external link to the HKU Libraries database, Sun Yat-sen in Hong Kong. I think the link should be amended to say, Sun Yat-sen in Hong Kong-University of Hong Kong Libraries, Digital Initiatives. Jklai (talk) 07:50, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
Sort by date
I couldn't help but to re-organize this page to this new sort by date format because the old table format was very hard to add new request (especially for newcomers) and difficult to track new/old requests. Feel free to comment or make suggestions on the new sorting here. Tavatar (talk) 02:01, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
