5.5.11

Fifth of May.. double five, double 1..

Five (5) sounds like "fi-i" [means 'fast' (快）or 'useless' (废) in Cantonese] depending on the intonation..

Five (5)
is pronounced as "wu" (五) in Chinese..
yet it sounds like "woo" in English
yet it sounds like "u" [means ’have‘ (有) in Hokkien/Taiwanese]
yet it also sounds like "wu" [means ‘none’ (无) in Chinese, with a different intonation]
and this is how my surname is pronounced in Chinese (with a different intonation)..

Five (5)
is pronounced as "go" (五) in Japanese..
yet it sounds like "gore" in English..
and it sounds like "go"  [also means ’five‘ (五) in Hokkien/Taiwanese]

Five (5)
is pronounced as "lima" in Malay..
which meant the capital of Peru in either English, Chinese or Japanese..

5 red tomatoes... yum, yum.. :)

Five (5)
is pronounced as "mm" in Cantonese..
which sounds like you are listening to or agreeing with the speaker..

Five (5)
is pronounced as "goh" in Hokkien/Taiwanese..
yet it sounds like "ngor" [means "me" ( 我) in Cantonese]
"Goh" is actually the correct pronunciation (with a different intonation) of my surname.. :p

So depending on the pronunciation and intonation, my surname could imply "me", "have" or "none" in 3 different languages.. ;) ;)

Oh ya, "55" means "ha ha" (laughing) when used by Thai people in their messaging/texting, as 5 is pronounced as "ha" in Thai.... thus, today is also a "Ha Ha" day!! :) :p :)

Hope you had a great day today!
