Recommended Posts

Thanks guys, but these are the Han Yu Pin Yin version right?

I know like "Zheng" can be "Tee" in hokkien, "Tay" in teochew. I am asking for the Hokkien version of the names. Anyone?

I don't know what the point is of sending you the names in Mandarin when you specifically asked for Hokkien....maybe they think all Hokkien people speak Mandarin now.

Anyway, the HOKKIEN names are as follows:

Tiⁿ Thiⁿ-su (also could be Thian-su)

and

Tiⁿ Jui-bin

I have used the POJ (Peh-oe-ji) system to transliterate, as it's the most commonly used. The little n indicates that the syllable is nasalised.
