1 candidate reading from Wiktionary — genuine Chaozhou colloquial form not yet confirmed by a speaker. This reading is tied to a distinct noun/classifier sense of 擔 (carrying pole; burden; load; also a classifier for pole-loads), split off from the verb sense entry (readings dam1/dang1/dan1) since the dossier attests it in a separate pos block.
