Meanings and usage

verb: to elope (of a woman), to run off with one's lover
綴人走

Page gives two distinct senses sharing this reading — 'to elope' (tagged Southern Min, of a woman) vs 'to follow others' opinions without having one's own' (tagged Quanzhou/Xiamen/Zhangzhou Hokkien specifically); picked the elope sense as the more broadly Southern-Min-attested one.
