In teochew, we say "chik suang ooi" meaning one pair of shoes. "chik" is one, or single. Cos if you are a fervent learner, you'd know number one is "ik". But "chik" is used when quantifying.
The main word is "suang" and in Korean is "ssang" or 쌍.
Here is a photo of "half a pair" :) But look carefully, it's supposed to be ice cream cone.

in Pontianak, we also say "Sang" (Btw, most Teochew in Pontianak originated from Jieyang County, Teochew county's neighbour)
ReplyDeleteSang, sometimes "swang".
