Phrase[edit]
君滾棍骨裙滾郡滑
- (Southern Min) A meaningless phrase used to memorise tones in Min Nan.
Usage notes[edit]
The phrase is misleading in the use of 滾／滚 (kún) as an example for tone six (陽上／阳上). In dialects that distinguish tones six (陽上／阳上) and seven (陽去／阳去), 滾／滚 (kún) belongs to tone two. One possible modification of this phrase for these dialects is to replace the second 滾／滚 (kún) with 近 (kǔn).
