A list of the unique (or weird :P) acronyms and lingo used by EDMWers.
Warning : Usage outside of EDMW will probably make you sound like a moron and kena ridicule jialak jialak... :crazy:
This collection now has a total of 257 terms! :eek:
**************************************************
General tips for understanding EDMWish :
1. Replace the letter "L" with the letter "R" and pronounce accordingly.
eg. Look -> Rook, Lock -> Rock, Plus -> Prus
2. Add the letter "S" in front of words that start with "ex".
eg. Expose -> Sexpose, Experience -> Sexperience
3. Spell the word backwards.
eg. Slow -> Wols
4. Many terms are simply mispronounced words and spelled to reflect that pronunciation.
Just say the word out loud and you will probably know what it means.
It helps alot if you understand hokkien.
eg. Why -> Huai, What -> Huat, Is -> Ish, Clone -> Krone
**************************************************

Some can still guess from context, others google, but still have many weird terms...

Sofa : First post.

In some early chinese forums, a person started a thread to share some sexy pictures.
Some then replied, "Very nice, going to sit on sofa and PCC".
From then on, whenever some good pictures were shared, people will post "sit sofa".
By and by, noble people who do not know the original meaning, thought that "sofa" refers to the first reply posted.

Ok, i think i know wat it means...
Helps if u understand chinese or hokkien.
When a person
a. overpays for something
b. pays for something not worthwhile
c. pays for something he's not expected to
we say this person kenna "砍菜头“ or is a “萝卜头“
萝卜 sounds like "Robert"
So you get "Robert Head" or the person is called "Robert"
As for why tis is known as "砍菜头“, “萝卜头“... i dunno... maybe some older lao jiaos can enlighten...

The thread u gave is about this guy who self-pwn bcos of a pic he posted right?
The pic shows some "naughty" folder names like Tentacle Rape...
From wiki, this is the meaning of Tentacle Rape (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tentacle_rape)...
As for Barrel Roll (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrel_roll#Barrel_roll_on_the_Internet), this is explained in wiki too...

oh so is link to pap?
If I am not wrong, 66.6% is used to refer to the people who voted for PAP.
Not sure if this percentage gets the attention because of the number connection to the devil...?
e.g. usage :
66.6%, are you happy now that you have to pay extra 2% GST?

eg. 66.6%, are you happy now that you have to pay extra 2% GST?
Origin : During the 2006 election, PAP won with a 66.6% vote. This number probably got the attention of people due to 666 being the number of the devil.

Beethoven : 背多分 (chinese, Back scores more points) = The back view (of a person) is more attractive than the front.

(Nothing to do with the musician in any way)

Added some general tips for understanding EDMWish :
1. Replace the letter "L" with the letter "R" and pronounce accordingly.
eg. Look -> Rook, Lock -> Rock, Plus -> Prus
2. Add the letter "S" in front of words that starts with "ex".
eg. Expose -> Sexpose, Experience -> Sexperience
3. Spell the word backwards.
eg. Slow -> Wols
4. Many terms are simply mispronounced words and spelled to reflect that pronunciation.
Just say the word out loud and you will probably know what it means.
It helps alot if you understand hokkien.
eg. Why -> Huai, What -> Huat, Is -> Ish, Clone -> Krone
LuffyMonkey
22-02-2008, 05:08 PM
More updates :
Cannon Fairy : (chinese, Cannon = 大炮, Fairy = 仙) = Someone who is full of hot air, talks big with no substance, bullcrapping.
Fish Seller : Selfish
Huai : Why
Huat : What. Also means to prosper in hokkien.
MIW : Men In White. Refers to the political party, People's Action Party (PAP), of Singapore.
Origin : White is the official colour of PAP and members are often seen wearing in white in party events.
Another reason this term caught on may be due to the parody nature of the term "Men in Black" (MIB), which is a top-secret government agency in conspiracy theories.
More good years ahead : Used like a "+1" mostly in threads on unpleasant topics, eg. when the government raises tax. (see +1)
Origin : Used as a sign off by an EDMWer who is possibly the first person in EDMW with a PhD.
OL : Office Lady
Parroting : The act of copying the reply of a previous poster. Use like a +1. (see +1)
PDF : Pedophile (probably originated from the misspell word "Pedofile", which gives raise to the acronym PDF)
Rock : Lock. Usually means to lock a thread.
Run Lion : (hokkien 跑狮) means to commit adultery, cheat on your partner.
Up Lorry : Means dead or is in serious trouble.
Origin : From a coffin going into the hearse. A lorry is commonly used as a hearse in Singapore.

Buttseck : Anal Sex
GG : Good Game. Used to mean "Game Over" or "The End".
Origin : (from Wikipedia) An internet slang exchanged by players at or near the conclusion of a gaming match to describe a game that is very one sided and therefore considered already over. It may also be used at the end of a close game or match as a sign of good sportsmanship, signaling that it was a good competition.
Humji : Gutless, Kiasi, Wimp, Chicken out.
LPPL : Lan Pah Pah Lan (hokkien) = Caught in both directions = Bang balls
MKLTWS : Meng Kia, Long Tio Wu Siah (hokkien) = Literally "Don't be scared, if hit got sound". Used to tell someone to do things boldly.

No Horse Run : Boh Bey Zhao (hokkien). Used to describe someone/something that is so ahead of its peers/competition that nothing else can be compared to it.

Orleng Tao : Literally means "Orange Head". Refers to an EDMWer whose avatar is a cartoonish character with a huge orange head.
He is infamous for his mostly WOB threads and posts, and his entire clan of clones. His main account was banned in Feb 2008.

Couple of updates :

Dip Dip : Deep Deep = Very much, a lot, deeply. Frequently used together with "Lub". Eg. I ish lub chiu dip dip. (see also Lub)
GGDD : Gong Gong Dai Dai (hokkien) = Stupid
Lub : Love
Nekkid : Naked
Nia : Only (hokkien). Used at the end of a sentence to play down something that has been overestimated.
Sauce : Source
Techno Cheesepie : A meaningless prefix added to the word Cheesepie. (see Cheesepie)
Origin : In the Singapore-made movie "881", there was a scene where the character "Auntie Ling" asked "Wang Lei" what is the meaning of "Techno".
Wang Lei gave a long-winded nonsense answer that pissed off Auntie Ling and she scolded him "Techno Chee Ko Pek" (ie. Techno Lecher).
From then on, the word "Techno" has been added as a prefix to various terms.

Camel Toe : (from Wikipedia) A slang term that refers to the outline of the female labia majora (that's vagina for the uninitiated) when seen through tight, form-fitting clothes (eg. bikini, swimsuit).
Labia majora is actually vulva. :o
This thread is very illuminating, I finally know what WOB is. :)

I think we are doing quite ok here.
A list of terms organise in alphabetical order and you can search using your browser's search function. Bookmarked for easy reference. =:p
What you have done looks better aesthetically, but it's mainly a list of name-calling with no real benefits... :s22: Please forgive me being unable to understand what you are trying to achieve there... :crazy:

eh luffy not all the terms are specific to edmw. Some edmw borrowed from other places like 154th is from sammyboy. KKnbccb all this is local lingo.
Btw notice the double standards here.
PPl type ah neh wah everyone say racist.
Ah tiong also quite racist but of course it dun matter, even though majority here is like a few generations from ah tiong. Some lagi worse born in chenna family read cheena papers. :s22:

This has now turned into a list of terms EDMWers used... :s22:
Actually name-calling like Ah Neh (see ABNN) and Ah Tiong can be considered as being racist if used in a derogatory tone.
ABNN has been around for decades and seriously I am not sure if it sounds racist to the indians. Tried to find out how this name came about, but seems like no one knows...
Hence, for these terms, I usually indicate it as "possibly racist" so people can use their common sense on whether to use it or not...

Haha, you really like this phrase hor. :s13:
So far, I think you are the only one I have seen using it.
Already planned to add it to the "+1 list". :s22:
I know it came from "Bad Man Forward, Bad Man Pull Up", and there's a song with the same name... but what does it mean exactly, do you know? :s11:
Don't really get the African American culture...

Is it? Do you remember exactly the source? Which minister on which topic?
Also do you know which minister/MP said, "It's an honest mistake"?

Means support all the real badman. Dunno why they ask them all to pull up. Pull up is used by the dj during a dance to stop the music so he can say something to the audience. Singapore disco seldom have ppl talking to the audience. But i think thai discos in golden mile should have at the end or maybe famous djs like those fatboy slim or whatever. It is damn common in reggae dancehall. Even the selectors or djs have nick names like hotta ball, foota hype, tony matterhorn.
Aiyoh what african american??? Jamaica rah. Kanna so many carribeanm ppl all stayin in new york, so many hit singers in US charts like sean paul or sean kingston.
Aiyah nm rah damn funny when translate to chinese. :s12::D

After reading your post, I still have no idea how to explain " 坏人向前 坏人拉上"... :s34: Think will just put it under the "+1" list... :D
Saw a video where a white man tried to get some black guys to explain "Bad man forward, bad man pull up". The black guy explain it as "An evil man tries to go forward, but another evil man pulls him back"... :s22: To me that's a very good example of LPPL... =:p

Correct mah, PM or SM, both still are minister...
Do you still remember roughly when it was said and what's the subject about?
Cos I like to include a "Origin" section with each explanation.

He was speaking to some indians not blacks. They also said pundek in the vid. Its just a joke cos they also dunno how to explain.
One good way to tell is how they speak and pronounce words. ANyway jamaicans all speak english. Some also look ang moh or chinese. But nevermind man. Its all good.
