虎

1 candidate reading from Wiktionary — genuine Chaozhou colloquial form not yet confirmed by a speaker. The second candidate hu1 was dropped: in the dossier it appears only attached to Wiktionary's 'only used in 馬虎' and 'only used in 虎不拉' bound-compound cross-references, which give no independent definable sense for 虎 on its own.
