Kahit na humigit kumulang sa dalawang daang Filipino ang nagsusulat sa wikang Mandarin o Hokkien sa kasalukuyan ay hindi inaakala ng mga bobong iskolar na dugong Malay na malaking bahagi ng literatura That is the historical reason why almost all critics ignore our Chinese literature.

Dito'y dapat linawin na ang mga bokabularyong Tsinong tinukoy sa pag-aaral ay mula sa wikang Hokkien. Mangilan-ngilan lamang ang mula sa Cantones at Mandarin. Hindi naman ito kataka-taka dahil mahigit nobenta porsiyento ng mga Tsinong lumikas sa Pilipinas ay galing sa Fujian (o Hokkian) At ang salitang "paslang," ayon sa pag-aaral ni Manuel, ay mula sa pariralang Hokkien na "phah si lang" na ang kahuluga'y... ano pa nga ba kundi "pumatay ng tao!" and depth of Chinese influence on the Tagalog language. Here it should be clarified that the Chinese vocabulary referred to in the study is from the Hokkien language. Only a few come from Cantonese and Mandarin. This is not surprising because more than ninety percent of the Chinese who emigrated to the Philippines are from Fujian (or Hokkian) And the word "paslang," according to Manuel's study, is from the Hokkien phrase "phah si lang" which means... what else but "to kill a person!" tl 2003 Flowers of May: Three Selected Stories 五月花節：柯清淡小說精選 (Flores de Mayo: Tatlong Piling Kwento) Ching Tam Cua Joaquin Sy Kaisa Para sa Kaunlaran 9789718857304 48,50 https://books.google.com.ph/books?id=hJtkAAAAMAAJ&q=salitang+%22Hokkien%22&dq=salitang+%22Hokkien%22&hl=en&newbks=1&newbks_redir=0&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjH9se60J6FAxXy8zgGHWcAC9IQ6AF6BAgFEAI lumabas mula sa kuwarto ang anak kong lalaking nakabihis militar at may hawak na riple. Pinisil niya ako sa balikat saka sinabi sa wikang Hokkien, "Magsasanay kaming magpaputok ng rifle ngayong araw. Pa! Corporal na ako, hindi na flag bearer Hokkien ang dalawang salitang iyon. Pagkatapos ng anak kong lalaki sa paaralang Tsino, nagkolehiyo na siya sa paaralang Pilipino. Nag-aalala akong makakalimutan niya ang wikang Tsino, pati na ang sulat Tsino. Nang maglaho sa labas usap-usapan ng mga tao sa Chinatown, ang pangongolekta ng donasyon ng class president naming binansagan naming Kuya Macao na bagama't Cantones ay nakapagsasalita ng matatas na Hokkien, ang limang linggong wala akong perang manood ng my son came out of the room in military uniform and holding a rifle. He squeezed my shoulder and said in Hokkien, "We're going to practice firing a rifle today. Pa! I'm a corporal, no longer a flag bearer Those two words are Hokkien. After my son went to Chinese school, he went to college in the Filipino school. I was worried that he would forget the Chinese language, including the Chinese script.

Ayon sa PCIJ, ang "hue" daw ay may literal na katumbas na "bulaklak" [flower], samantalang ang "eng" o "teng" ay katumbas daw ng "pusta" o "taya" [bet]. Ayon kay Joaquin Sy, isang eksperto sa Hokkien at tagasalin ng mga akdang Tsino, ang "huweteng" ay maaaring mula sa "hua" [bulaklak] at "tang" [salansan ng papeles]. Wala namang makapagsasabi kung sa paglipas ng panahon ay nagbago ang bigkas sa "hua tang" at naging "hue teng."

Tumutukoy ang "jue xin" sa tao na buo It is indeed similar as said that "huweteng" ["hue"+"eng" or "teng"] is derived from Chinese, and is associated with the Amoy-Hokkien language. According to the PCIJ, "hue" is said to have a literal equivalent to "bulaklak" [flower], while "eng" or "teng" is said to be equivalent to "pusta" or "taya" [bet]. According to Joaquin Sy, a Hokkien expert and translator of Chinese works, "hueteng" may be from "hua" [flower] and "tang" [stack of papers]. No one can say if over time the pronunciation changed from "hua tang" to "hue teng." Going back to Sy's Tsapsuy: Essays, poems, translations, and others (1997), "jue xin" from Hokkien is mentioned.

Siya ang pinakabata sa editorial department. Nakapag-aral siya ng journalism sa isang unibersidad sa Tsina, at mahusay pang mag-Ingles, kaya siya ang inatasang maging reporter ni Mr. Le. Makuwento siya at prangka magsalita, maliksi kumilos at mabilis magtrabaho, at tapat sa pakikiharap sa tao, kaya't natutuwa sa kanya ang mga taga-editorial department. Galing siya sa Chaozhou sa Guangdong. Maliban sa pagkakaiba sa punto ay hindi gaanong nagkakalayo ang salitang Chaozhou sa Hokkien. Siguro'y dahil hindi masyadong malayo ang aming edad, gayundin ang pag-uugali, kaya naman madali kaming Kho Bunthong is only twenty-five years old. He is the youngest in the editorial department. He studied journalism at a university in China, and speaks English well, so he was assigned to be a reporter for Mr. Le. He is talkative and straightforward, agile and quick to work, and honest in dealing with people, which is why the editorial department likes him. He is from Chaozhou in Guangdong. Except to a certain point, the Chaozhou language is not that far from Hokkien.
