Staff Cecil Lee Posted November 9, 2019 Author Staff Share Posted November 9, 2019 Case Study: Whats in a name? Plenty... Google for La Mariposa yields:- a. Hotel La Mariposa Costa Rica (Manuel Antonio) b. Hotel La Mariposa Maritius Apparently, this hotel chain has a facebook page... P.S. Costa Rica is known for its beaches, volcanoes and biodiversity.

Staff Cecil Lee Posted November 9, 2019 Author Staff Share Posted November 9, 2019 Case Study: Aiyoh! Not too late to change the name to Grand Mangis, lah! La = "That one" in Italian Mala = This word is composed of a combination of two Mandarin characters 麻 = numbing and 麻 spicy (hot). Mala goes together with the word sauce = Mala sauce = this flavours the food with a combination of Sichuan peppers and dried chilli peppers. In recent years, many local food courts and kopitiams sell this dish. Puasa = Malay word for fasting.. Thus this elderly lady calls her new condo: "That spicy one .. so better puasa, instead" Huh? P.S. Si-beh (Hokkien) means "a crude way of describing" Very difficult Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
