Daigeho! Welcome to the new What Teochew Say!
Since 2012 What Teochew Say has provided a dictionary and phrasebook mobile app for Teochew word searches in English and French. Now, in our 4th version, we've created a brand new web-app with lots of new features. Some of these include:
- Thousands of new entries sourced from our online communities
- Improved search and filters in Chinese characters, pengim, or English/French
- Support for both Gaginang and Guangdong pengim (romanization) systems
- Support for multiple Teochew dialects including Suantao, Gekion, and more to come
- Detailed information including part of speech, register, origin, and topics
- Standardized Teochew characters and updated audio files
- Learning resources page and the Featured entry of the day
- And much more!
Check back here on the updates page or on our social media for news on even more features coming soon.
We hope you like what we've done with the dictionary! We'd love to hear from you. Let us know if you have any questions, see typos, or want to contribute or collaborate!
Special thanks to our awesome dev team, beta testers, and other supporters!
From everyone on the What Teochew Say team,
Joisia!
