today

  • Date/Time
  • 囝日 gian(6) yek8

    潮州音: gian(6) yik8

    囝 is not the "official" character used for gian, but I'm using it because it has the same sound and I'm not sure what a more appropriate character would be

  • 今日 geng1 yek8
    More details
    潮州音: ging1 yik8
  • 今日 gim1 yik8

There are many different variations in the way people say "today" in Teochew! My dad's family tends to say geng1 yek8, and my mom's family tends to say gian(6) yek8. And while I mainly have the 揭阳 Gekion pronunciations on this site, I have also included gim1 yik8, which I think is the 潮州 "Teochew-proper" way of saying it.
