2nd one means annoying or time consuming. Something along the lines of that.

1st one means don't don't make a racket

Context would help, but stanley's interpretations could be correct although I feel its a little stretched to make it work.

My first reaction to the second one was something to do with chicken rice.

seems like the third one is "i understand.....something not sure..

If you change the phonetics of the 3rd phrase it could mean:

(Ngo hoi tsi dui kui yao ho feeling)
I am starting to have good feelings about him/her.

I'm probably wrong though because I've never heard anyone say it like that. Just my stab in the dark.
Soli Deo gloria.

i think 1st one means "i didn't make a mistake"
"Wanna join my [combo] clan?" "We play turret d competitively"

Thanks!


i guess the first one supposed to be pronounced as ngo mo gow cho?

if that is then

1. I'm not mistaken.
2. It's annoying
3. The feeling for him/her was really strong in the beginning. ( as in admiring the person)

1st line: I think the person is saying "I did not make a mistake"
2nd line: so annoying/so frustrating... person may refer to a person or the situation
3rd line: I'm starting to have strong feelings towards him/her

1st line: dont think it makes sense but if you were to fix it imo the most common would be

"yao mo gaw cho" means "wtf"
"Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference."

I think "are you kidding me?!" makes more sense than "wtf" =/

dor yur

edit - and yeah, "lay yao mo gow chor" makes more sense.
literally = "have you been mistaken?" or "did you make a mistake?"
meaning = "are you kidding me?"

mo gow chor sounds better, idk why theres an extra mo. = no mistake.
ma gwy fan = annoying/irritating.
au hoy = i/me sounding. i have no idea what this means, the pronounciation, at least to me, is WAYYYYY off. chi doy can also mean late/lateness.

DIUUUUUUUU.
