Idiom of the day /
gia̍t-kat-á uē
pái-kha-ê kiânn toh tíng .... gioh-toh
pái-kha = limp
pái-kha-ê is someone who limps, crippled.
kiânn = walk
toh = table
tíng = top
toh tíng = on top of the table
pái-kha-ê kiânn toh tíng = the crippled person walks on the table.
gioh is describing the action of limping. Sort like descriptions the one heel twist and dig into the ground kind of movement.
gioh--leh, gioh--leh.
gioh-toh means ..... show off
With a proud air
it's similar to hiau-pai.
gioh-toh is a new term for me. I've never heard of this term before. Perhaps it's not spelled nor translated correctly.
(Help!!!)
