定義: (textspeak) A Kongish code-mixing phrase used by native Hong Kongers when one feels embarassed about something stupid that he has done but still wishes to admit it honestly. While the phrase is English-sounding with Holland being a western country and Ben being an English name, it is actually homophonous with '好撚笨柒' in Cantonese, which has the literal meaning of 'very f***ing stupid penis'.
用法: E.g. I forgot my wallet at home! I am Holland Ben 7!同義詞: 好撚笨柒, Holland Bank Cheque
定義: Originated from the song "Doot Doot (6 7)" by Skrilla, this is a code-mixing term used by Gen Z westernised Hong Kongers when they want to say 'I don't know' or refer to something 'so-so' as a rating. Sometimes, it may have no meaning at all, even when the person is juggling both hands up and down excitedly. Coincidently, six seven looks similar to the Cantonese expression '碌柒', which has the literal meaning of 'a stick of dick' and refers to an idiot.
用法: E.g. A: How was the movie? B: Six seven. *Hands juggling up and down* (So-so.)
E.g. A: What is the answer to this question? B: Six seven! (I don't f***ing know.)同義詞: 唔撚知, 係喇掛參考: https://www.instagram.com/p/DQbVj-KkvEX/?hl=en (使用手機版本)
