陳德聰 Posted June 11, 2019 at 06:35 PM Report Posted June 11, 2019 at 06:35 PM Looks like a distorted 鬼鼠 "white rat" Quote
Shelley Posted June 12, 2019 at 10:01 AM Report Posted June 12, 2019 at 10:01 AM Is 鬼 white? I know of it as clever, sly or crafty. As usual I may well be wrong but just checking for my own peace of mind. Quote
Wurstmann Posted June 12, 2019 at 10:47 AM Report Posted June 12, 2019 at 10:47 AM I found that online: 「鬼鼠」是廣東的習慣語，意思是「閃閃縮縮」、「偷偷摸摸」，辦事見不得光。 Quote

陳德聰 Posted June 12, 2019 at 03:42 PM Report Posted June 12, 2019 at 03:42 PM Wow I thought it was 鬼鬼祟祟 but Pleco is now telling me it's a variant of 鬼鬼鼠鼠. Quote
Tomsima Posted June 12, 2019 at 06:06 PM Report Posted June 12, 2019 at 06:06 PM 鬼鬼祟祟 in Mandarin, it would appear 鬼鬼鼠鼠 is specific to Cantonese Quote
陳德聰 Posted June 12, 2019 at 07:03 PM Report Posted June 12, 2019 at 07:03 PM Lol I definitely meant I thought “gwai2 syu2” was written 鬼祟 1 Quote
