Pronunciation

Variety: chaozhou

Pronunciation note: Whether the fronting extends to the nasal-coda rime is less clearly attested than for the open rime. Verify before citing. No source located: Wikipedia's fronting list covers the nasalised-vowel rime (ĩõ) and the checked rime (ioʔ), not a true nasal-CODA rime like this one, and Learn Teochew's regional-differences section explicitly says it does not address codas at all. This value is an editorial extrapolation from the attested open-rime pattern, not independently sourced.

Meanings and usage

noun: rivulet; small pond
滎

4 candidate readings from Wiktionary — genuine Chaozhou colloquial form not yet confirmed by a speaker. iong5/êng5/uêng5 are cited on the page alongside hêng5 only for placename-specific usages (滎經, 滎瀯); the basic sense 'rivulet; small pond' is directly tagged only with hêng5, but all four readings are attested somewhere in the page's Teochew pronunciation data for this character, so all are kept.
