銖

4 candidate readings from Wiktionary — genuine Chaozhou colloquial form not yet confirmed by a speaker. This 'Thai baht' sense attests all four readings, including the colloquial puag4/puêg4 pronunciation (a phonetic loan close to Thai "baht"); the classical 'unit of weight' sense uses only zu1/su5 and is drafted as a separate entry.
