A MUST READ : 源自英文的廣東話 黎景堂 2012年3月7日

香港人口中常用的一些廣東話形容詞和動詞，其實是源自英文，Dr.Yuk-Ching Hon 舉了好些常見例子: 派頭：Pride（自豪、威風） 50年代，流行講「派頭」這個形容詞，即是「講派場、有威勢、夠 舖張」的正面稱讚。 「派頭」來自英文「Pride」。 例句：「佢 哋結婚，飛去法國古堡舉行婚 禮，仲包埋所有親友機票食宿， 真係夠哂派頭！」 疴畢甩：All blood（疴血） 如果遇上麻煩、辣手難題、或者死路一條， 就會自嘆一句：「呢一鑊真係疴畢甩！」 「畢甩」來自英文「blood」， 在腸癌橫行的今天，「疴血」都咪話唔大鑊！例句： 「吓？你架 Civic仔撞爛人哋 架法拉利？你今次真係疴畢 甩！」 蛇guare：Scare （驚 嚇、恐懼）「蛇guare」形容人「騰雞，無膽，大驚少怪」， 「蛇guare」來自英文「Scare」， 例句：「你唔好咁蛇guare 啦！乜都自己嚇自己一餐！」 仆街：Poor guy（粗劣的人） 「仆街」經常被人誤以為是「動詞」：咀咒對方「仆喺 條街度！」其實「仆街」是名 詞，來自英文的「Poor guy」。 「Poor」不是「貧窮」的意思，而是「粗劣、低俗、破爛」 的意思。 例句：「呢條友連80歲啊婆沖涼都裝！正一仆街！」 薯嘜：Schmuck （笨 人） 讚人叻 仔就話佢 smart，但係彈人蠢鈍就叫佢 「薯嘜」！薯嘜並非源於「蕃薯 的嘜頭」，「薯嘜」來自英文「Schmuck」， 除了形容愚笨之外，也可應用在老土的衣著上。 例句：「嘩！乜你仲著「大地牌」冷衫？咁薯嘜 架！」 花臣：Fashion（新款式） 80年代，一講到「花臣」，就是指新的 gimmick（噱頭）。 即是「新招數、新花款、新點子」， 「花臣」來自英文「 Fashion」，例句：「哼！黔驢技窮！睇你仲有乜嘢 新花臣吖？！」 蝦碌：Hard luck（惡運倒霉）蝦碌泛指拍電影時的NG (即係 No Good) 片 段，所謂「蝦碌鏡頭」， 現實生活裏，蝦碌指忙中有錯，掛萬漏一，失之交臂。 「蝦碌」來自英文「Hard luck」，行衰運所以蝦碌！ 例句：「唔好意思，一時蝦碌，將你個 master file delete咗！ 你要重新再打過呀！」 老粒：Rob（搶劫） 90年代初，流行講「老粒」，即是搶劫。「老粒」 並非指一粒很老的東西， 「老粒」來自英文「Rob」， 例句：「咪郁！老粒呀！快啲 攞哂啲錢出嚟，唔係一刀捅瓜 你！」 符碌：Fluke（桌球術語：僥倖擊中） 「符碌」指不靠實際能力，幸運地達成目標、純粹僥倖彩數。「 符碌」來自 英文「Fluke」， 是但馬虎，隨便求其，但又能幸運地完成艱鉅任務。 例句：「臨尾一Q，俾佢 符符碌碌咁打埋個黑柴入尾袋 添！」 唱錢：Change（貨幣找換） 當要使用另一個國家的貨幣，便要去找換店「唱錢」，「唱啲 美金」、「唱啲英磅」、「唱啲 人民幣」， 「唱錢」來自英文「Change」（日語叫兩替店）， 例句：「下個禮拜去倫敦旅行，而家趁英磅平，唱定啲 錢先！」 臨時演員叫「茄呢啡」，來至「Carefree」 這些演員不需太注重。 印式廣東話「咕喱」，係英文 Coolie 同 埋葡文發音嘅 Koolie 廣東話音譯。 汽車泊車的「泊」字，來自 Parking 中 的「Park」。 形容靚女的「索」來自「Sharp」（明艷奪目），「條女好索！ 」＝「條女好 Sharp！」 發蹄騰（FRIGHTENED)...好惊。 有D啤（DEPRESSED)...無心機做野。 頻能（PANIC)...忙亂。 爆格 (BURGLARY)...被人入屋盗窃。 喊到飛呢發辣 (FULLY FLATED)...喊到很凄凉。 信唔信我丙 (PUNCH) 你?...信唔信我打你? 拗「叫」 (ARGUE)...争执。 木獨 (MOODY)...無心機唔出聲。 我還想到一些: 波 e.g. 打波、踢波、波地 = ball 波士 = boss 巴士 = bus 的士 = taxi 貼士 e.g. 跑馬貼士、小賬 = tips van 仔 = van 泊 e.g. 泊車 = park 士担 = stamp 燕梳 = insurance 一個骨 = one quarter 三個骨 = three quarters 士的 = walking stick 沙展 = sergeant 桑拿 = sauna 杯葛 = boycott 梳化椅 = sofa kwoo 筍 = cushion 粉絲 = fans 哺士 = pose 咭 = card 咭紙、咭片 (名片) = business card 哺士咭 = postcard (But cardbox is not 咭盒, it's 纸皮盒或纸皮箱) class 史 = classy 吉史 = gutsy 士tie佬 = style 快佬 = file fuse 史 = fuse 领呔 = neck tie 恤衫 = shirt 士多 (商店) = store 吧 (酒吧) = bar 梳打e.g梳打水、梳打粉 = soda 安士 = ounce 品脫 = pint 咪 = mile 咪錶 = speedometer 忌亷 = cream 忌亷克力架 = cream cracker 威化餅 = wafer 曲奇 = cookie 多士 = toast 班戟 = pancake 奄烈疍 = omelette 撻 (e.g. 疍撻) = tart 批 (e.g. 雞批) = pie 三文治 = sandwich 吉烈(e.g. 吉烈虾) = cutlet 士多啤利 = strawberry 朱古力 = chocolate 雲尼喇 = vanilla 遮里 = jelly 布甸 = pudding 布霖布甸 = plum pudding 威士忌 = whiskey 白蘭地 = brandy 啤酒 = beer 波打酒 = port wine 摩打 = motor 車呔 = tyre 偈(gai)油 = gear oil 大偈(gai) = big gear (motor mechanic) 威史 = waste (a mass of threads from rags used for wiping and cleaning) 嘩(娃)佬 = valve 壓嘩佬 = grind valve 哥爾夫球 = golf 士deem = steam 一打、两打.... = one dozen, two dozens.... 拜拜 = bye bye
