I love bi-lingual puns!

Today at the Idea Corner, I saw this witty commentary on yesterday's weather.

Text in various scripts reads "Foggy Dai Hok" on a bright green background.

This is a play on the Cantonese name for HKUST: 香港科技大學

 

  • 香[heung1]港[gong2]科[fo1]技[gei6]大[daai6]學[hok6]


 

  • 科[fo1]技[gei6] =  sounds like Foggy



It made me chuckle.

Today, it's still a bit foggy, but beautiful. Let's embrace the name :)

Foggy landscape with distant mountains, a calm sea, and a building partially obscured by greenery.
