Pronunciation

Peng'im: kioh4
POJ: khioh
Variety: chaozhou

Pronunciation note: Wikipedia lists /ioʔ/ → /ieʔ/ directly among the rimes fronted in Chaozhou/Chenghai — direct evidence, not an extension by analogy from the open rime.

Meanings and usage

verb: to pick up; to collect
抾

1 candidate reading from Wiktionary — genuine Chaozhou colloquial form not yet confirmed by a speaker. This reading is an alternative form of 抾 (khioh) and is tied to a distinct sense from the zab8/sib8 and siab8 readings, so it is drafted as its own entry.
