 * At least "on paper" appears to be 生檨仔 for Taiwan, per . Would you be able to source a more bounded region for that usage? Thanks. Hongthay (talk) 15:48, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I think it's a matter how you analyse 生檨仔. 闽方大 puts 檨仔 as meaning syphilis (noun) and lists 生檨仔 as an example (verb + object), while MOE analyses 生檨仔 as meaning the first stage of syphilis (noun). — justin(r)leung { (t...) 08:30, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
