Talk:番鹼

Teochew
lists a hûan-káng (I believe this is huang5 gang2 in the Guangdong whatever scheme). huang5 doesn't match online databases that says 番 = huang1. —suzukaze (t・c) 04:25, 27 April 2016 (UTC)
 * This thread says huang-kiⁿ (huang1 gin1) (番碱). —suzukaze (t・c) 10:16, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
 * And the Min Nan Wikipedia says that another name for sap-bûn is hoan-kiⁿ (番梘). —suzukaze (t・c) 10:27, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
 * According to THCWD, kiⁿ should be 鹼, so it may be used in some dialects of Min Nan, but it's not certain which ones. It's probably not used in Hokkien. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 21:10, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Well, maybe in some dialects of Hokkien, like 雲霄 as mentioned in the link above. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 21:12, 28 April 2016 (UTC)

Presumably this applies only to bar soap. —Suzukaze-c (talk) 22:22, 6 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Yup. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 00:29, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Is adding narrower subsenses "# bar soap" and "# liquid soap" to and dialectal synonyms appropriate? —Suzukaze-c (talk) 00:25, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I don't think so. It's kind of splitting hairs for this term, which is a cover term for any kind of soap. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 00:52, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
