Understanding English spoken by Chinese

If you're ever in Canada and you bump into some Chinese, especially those from Hong Kong, you may be puzzled as to what they're talking about. Here's a short guide to help you in understanding their "English".

Sum ting wong! .............That's not right!
Hu yu hai ding? ........... Are you harboring a fugitive?
Kum hia nao................ See me ASAP.
Dum Fuk!................... Stupid man!
Wai yu so tan?............. Did you go to the beach?
Chin tu fat!............... I think you need a face lift!
Wao, so dim!............... It's very dark in here!
No pah king................ This is a tow away zone.
Yu stin ki pu!..............Your body odor is offensive!
