Malay Echoes From The Past: Penang Hokkien Baba Language
by Kwok, Raymond
About This Book
This book is the last of a series of 4 books dealing with Penang's quaint and unique, yet distinct, Hokkien dialect, which contacts a lot of loan words from Malay, English and Cantonese. It gives an insight into the quiet assimilation and subtle merging of two distinct cultures - the immigrant Chinese and the local Malays - to from the "Baba-Nyonya" or "Peranankan" culture. With a large number of colour photographs.
