Bangau oh bangau

Last night I was listening to an episode of Penang Hokkien Podcast about kindergartens. They were talking about a song they sang in kindergarten, Bangau Oh Bangau. Here's a video they found on Youtube:



Besides, I learned something about BM contractions...I think everyone knows that tadika is a contraction for taman didikan kanak-kanak, but did you know that pawagam is also a contraction? I believe I've heard about it before, but I had completely forgotten...and in the episode they mentioned it, it's actually short for panggung wayang gambar! So how's that for your culture générale (general knowledge)? ;)
