Something must also be done to save Teochew, a language increasingly challenged by Mandarin To me, it shouldn't die

I am a Hokkien speaker from the Philippines now living in Hong Kong and it is also a very localized Hokkien with a mix of Spanish, FIlipino and English words into the Hokkien language

As a Singaporean, in my parents' generation there was a country-wide campaign by the govt to "homogenize" the Chinese population by aggressively promoting Mandarin instead of any other Chinese languages like Hokkien, Canto, Teochew etc, which unfortunately led to them all dying out rather rapidly by my generation (millenials & gen Z).

Penang Hokkien is unique, and was used by the paranakan as their trading language within their sphere of trading ports. This covers Myanmar, Southern Thailand, Medan, Melaka, Singapore and certain parts of Borneo. The Penang Hokkien includes words from Malay, English and Southern Indian. I believe Penang Hokkien is widely used in those ports during the nineteenth century. (1800 - 1900 ). Probably was still widely used until the Second World War. And slowly die out from the 70’s. Only the older generation, who still speaks in Penang Hokkien and they will soon die out too. My family left Penang back in the early 70’s and we speak Hokkien at home, but unfortunately my kids only know a few words.

Really appreciate your efforts in helping this language to survive. I'm a hokkien speaker and I'm really inspired by your efforts to help this dying language. Hope you will make more content about this topic and I'll do my part too by sharing. Cheers!

Thank you very much for the video. It's indeed sad that the Hokkiens themselves are killing their own language n heritage without even bothering to get to know its history. I hope it's still not too kate to save this rich language n the same goes to other Chinese languages like Cantonese, Hakka, Teowchew, Hainanese etc.

I was very sad to watch this video as I thought Hokkien was a stable Chinese language in South Easterb Asia. I hope that it will survive in this modern day world where everyone speaks the "mainline" languages.

Never knew Hokkien was picked up and learnt by a gentleman from England during the 17th century..interesting..:-) When i was a kid, i used to order food in Hokkien, in the course of 10 to 15 years, i have to order food in Mandarin. :-[ because the waiter/waitress doesn't know Hokkien. During my primary school 80's, there was a slogan just beside the chalkboard stated, "speak more mandarin, less speak dialect". No punishment those who speak dialect though. One of the historians said if the language doesn't have a word/character to support it, it will die off soon..saidly, Hokkien doesn't have a full range of word to support it.
