1. bok3 meng6 博命
2. bok3 zeoi22 駁嘴
3. would it be bok3 mung2 博懵

[Kelly S.]

"bok mang" the mang sounds more like meng6. Perhaps it sounds like "bok3 meng6" but that one means industrius/diligent... so are there any other possible homonym translations?

[Terence]

yes, bok3 meng6 can also mean industrious/diligent when use in the phrase bok3 meng6 duk6 syu1博命讀書(study hard); zou6 je5 博命做也(work hard)

[Corina]

What does "博懵" mean?
