Thesaurus talk:滾蛋

Cantonese
Do you think 扯 should be here as a synonym? The dog2 (talk) 18:14, 24 June 2022 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure. I'm a little surprised that used 滾蛋 as the title because this is kind of a word that has negative connotations, which is not ideal for a thesaurus entry title. 扯 could be included here if we're including all kinds of synonyms of something more neutral like 走開, although 扯 is kind of more like "leave" rather than "move away". — justin(r)leung { (t...) 19:21, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I see. For some reason, I thought 扯 had negative connotations, along the lines of "scram". Like if you're leaving your friend's house to go home at the end of a good night, you usually say 我走先 instead of 我扯先. I usually hear 扯 being used in the context of an annoyed person telling another person to leave. The dog2 (talk) 19:32, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
 * It depends. Telling someone to 扯 is usually negative, but it's not a strong thing like 滾蛋. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 20:31, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
