🗣 Chitgøeqpvoax 🗣 (u: Chid'goeh geh'pvoax Chid'gøeh'pvoax) 七月半 [wt][mo] Tshit-gue̍h-puànn/Tshit-ge̍h-puànn [#]: 1. (N) || 農曆七月十五日，即中元節。我國傳統民俗節日之一。在這一天除了要參加廟裡為孤魂野鬼所舉辦的普渡之外，也會準備豐盛的飯菜在自家門口祭拜好兄弟，俗稱「拜門口」(pài mn̂g-kháu)。傳說如果供品太少或飯菜不夠豐盛就會遭到好兄弟的報復，所以中元節是一年之中祭品最多的節日。; 🗣le: (u: Larn Chid'goeh'pvoax phor'to hid kafng, zhaix'voar tiøh zhoaan khaq zhvef'zhaw`leq, laai paix hør'hviaf'ti'ar.) 🗣 (咱七月半普渡彼工，菜碗著攢較腥臊咧，來拜好兄弟仔。) (咱們中元普渡那天，供品得準備豐盛點，來祭拜好兄弟。)
