Variants[edit]

@The dog2, there seems to be other variants like 欲嫁才來縛跤, 欲嫁才欲縛跤... The video you posted is weird. The words written have 欲嫁才來縛跤, but the MC seems to say 欲嫁才縛跤 (from what I've observed, she might have skipped a word; she seems to be very unsure of what she says and always trips up). I don't know if the video is reliable enough to show that Xiamen uses this as 欲嫁才縛跤 (rather than 欲嫁才來縛跤). — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 03:41, 20 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Justinrleung: I see what you're saying. I think it might be because the cue cards were written in Mandarin, and she had to translate them into Hokkien mentally, which could explain the trip up. But I could be wrong. What other sources do you have? The dog2 (talk) 03:48, 20 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
@The dog2: Actually, I just checked 闽南方言与俗语 by 周长楫 and it's there as 要嫁则缚脚, so it's good. — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 04:07, 20 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
