Lots of choice words!

As I have been recently unemployed and consequently much spare time on my hands, I've tried to use my time constructively. Thus I present a new dictionary of essential Taiwanese for foreigners, in no particular order and to be updated as new entries are acquired. Transliterations are only approximations and should not be taken as an accurate tool for pronunciation, please seek a native speaker for added authenticity.

1. Hwanna = uncultured foreign ba*t*rd
2. Kwasasha = what the h*ll are you looking at?
3. Chongsasha = what the h*ll are up to?
4. Adogha = foreigner
5. Kartchun = one's anus
6. Kowyow = what the h*ll are you whining about?
7. Ohbahsan = stuffy old woman
8. Ohjeesan = boring old man
9. Ahdohbai = motor scooter
10. Gan ni nyangh = f**k your mother
11. Soolah = d**khead
12. Yookee lahmay = hot-chick or jail-bait (depending on the age)
13. Goyginnah = monkey boy or odd looking juvenile
14. Tsan gyowah = farmers who made a stash selling their land
15. Gyewkee = something that has shrunk or otherwise distorted
16. Joo Joo = cute sound used as a euphemism for a man's ****
