Meanings and usage
noun: 996 work schedule (9am-9pm, six days a week)
九九六, 996
九九六, 996
This is a modern internet-era neologism (from the Mandarin '996' labor-schedule slang); it is uncertain whether it is genuinely established Teochew colloquial vocabulary rather than a borrowed term read with literal digit pronunciations.
Usage: neologism, slang
