How to Say 'Temples' in Cantonese | Meaning & Pronunciation

Myself, I have been involved with essentially two Buddhist temples, the Wat Yanviriya, a Thai temple in East Vancouver, BC, and the International Buddhist Temple, a Chinese temple on Lulu Island, BC. The latter was on Steveston Highway. The former was Theravāda Buddhism, and the latter was Pure Land Buddhism, also known as Amidism. I started Buddhism with Zen, many years previously.

我自己，基本上參與過兩個佛教寺廟，一個係喺卑詩省東溫哥華嘅泰國寺廟「Yanviriya寺」，同埋喺卑詩省露露島嘅一間中國寺廟「國際佛寺」。後者係喺史提夫斯頓公路上面。前者係上座部佛教，後者係淨土佛教，又稱阿米德教。我係用禪宗嚟開始傳揚佛教，係好多年前。

I've extensively visited two Buddhist temples, the Thai Wat Yanviriya in East Vancouver, BC, and the Chinese International Buddhist Temple on Lulu Island, BC.

At the Chinese temple, Pure Land Buddhism influenced me. These three kinds of Buddhism influenced my thinking.

我廣泛參觀過兩間佛寺，分別係喺卑詩省東溫哥華嘅延維里亞寺，同埋喺卑詩省露露島嘅中國國際佛寺。我喺去任何寺廟之前都係自己學禪佛，但係喺日本，我參觀咗啲寺廟同神社。喺泰國寺廟，上座部佛教影響咗我。喺中國寺廟，淨土佛教影響咗我。

Before dawn, I was walking around and around the clandestine neighbourhood cul-de-sac. I was observing the dark sky with illumined clouds. The cul-de-sac is one of my other temples. In the sunny morning, I did see Marian my blonde British neighbour. She was dressed in green, as I was. She remarked how the air still felt cool. Her husband Martin is an Anglo with some German blood. Later, I greeted Sandra my Fijian neighbour, who is three-quarters Chinese and one-quarter East Indian. She was married to a Caribbean black, and has two hybrid children, Darius and Jewel. It's the 22nd of May of 2025.

喺黎明之前，我喺個隱蔽嘅社區嘅死胡同周圍行緊。我觀察緊黑暗嘅天空，上面有照亮嘅雲死路一條係我其他寺廟之一。喺晴朗嘅朝早，我確實見到我個金髮英國鄰居瑪麗安。佢同我一樣，着住綠色嘅衫。佢話啲空氣仲覺得好凍。佢老公馬丁係英國人，有啲德國血統。後來，我同我嘅斐濟鄰居 Sandra 打招呼，佢係四分之三嘅中國人，四分一嘅東印度人。佢同一個加勒比黑人結婚，並且有兩個混血兒，大流士同珠寶。而家係2025年5月22號。

On the 3rd of November of 2021, it was a rainy, somber day. At the cafe, I found the only open spot at a table near the washroom. There, I drank my iced green tea. At a table beyond mine was a blond student with big biceps with tattoos. Hans the Netherlander rolled in with his wheelchair. I joined him at another table. There, we discussed multibillionaires: Elon Musk's space technology and Bill Gates' medical technology. Then, we discussed the Yucatan. I said that I have been to the temples at Tulum, near a cliff overlooking a white sandy beach, looking like a science fiction set. The other day, he mentioned that Netherlanders ate eel. I suggested that he try the "unagi donburi," sweet glazed eel on rice, at the nearby Japanese restaurant.

2021年11月3號，係一個落雨、陰沉嘅日子，喺咖啡廳，我喺洗手間附近嘅一張枱度搵到唯一嘅空位，我喺嗰度飲咗我嘅冰綠茶，係一個有紋身嘅金髮學生，我同佢一齊坐喺另一張枱度盧克斯嘅醫療技術。然後，我哋討論咗尤卡坦人。我話我去過圖魯姆嘅寺廟，附近有個懸崖，望到一個白色嘅沙灘，睇落好似科幻片噉。琴日，佢提到荷蘭人食咗鰻魚，我建議佢喺附近嘅日本餐廳試下「烏納吉丼」，即係甜釉鰻魚。

A bird's-eye view of a large city in Japan presents an appearance quite unlike that presented by any large assemblage of buildings at home. A view of Tokio, for example, from some elevated point reveals a vast sea of roofs, the gray of the shingles and dark slate-color of the tiles, with dull reflections from their surfaces, giving a sombre effect to the whole. The even expanse is broken here and there by the fire-proof buildings, with their ponderous tiled roofs and ridges and pure white or jet-black walls. These, though in color adding to the sombre appearance, form, with the exception of the temples, one of the most conspicuous features in the general monotony. The temples are indeed conspicuous, as they tower far above the pigmy dwellings which surround them. Their great black roofs, with massive ridges and ribs, and grand sweeps and white or red gables, render them striking objects from whatever point they are viewed. Green masses of tree-foliage springing from the numerous garden

鳥瞰日本一個大城市嘅外觀，呈現出一種同國內任何大型建築物組合所呈現嘅外觀完全唔同嘅外觀。例如，從某個高處望到東京，可以見到一片廣闊嘅屋頂海，瓦片嘅灰色同瓦片嘅深色板岩色，表面有暗淡嘅反射，令到整體有陰沉嘅效果。均勻嘅廣闊地方，呢度呢度都被防火建築物打破，佢哋嘅沉重瓦片屋頂同山脊，同埋純白色或者噴射黑色嘅牆身。呢啲，雖然顏色增加咗暗沉嘅外觀，但係除咗廟宇之外，形式上，係一般單調中最顯眼嘅特徵之一。呢啲廟宇的確好顯眼，因為佢哋高過圍住佢哋嘅矮人住宅。佢哋嘅偉大黑色屋頂，有巨大嘅山脊同肋骨，同埋宏偉嘅掃地同白色或者紅色嘅山牆，無論喺邊度睇，都令佢哋成為醒目嘅物件。由眾多花園中湧現出嚟嘅綠色樹葉，為呢片灰色嘅居所海洋增添咗一啲生命力。

About 6 in the drizzling morning, I headed walking towards Tim Hortons, here on Lulu Island. I had a chai tea with oat milk and a four-cheese savoury twist pastry. Later, my Cantonese friend Gary showed up; his family has been in this country for generations. Besides English, he speaks Cantonese and Mandarin. Some people want to live in a different country: Gary wants to live in Vietnam, specifically Ho Chi Minh City, for part of the year, as he has a girlfriend there. He said that he was not having too much language difficulty there, despite that I know that most signs there are in Vietnamese. He suggested that I buy property in the Philippines, where it would be much cheaper. I said that I do not really prefer a Xtian country. I talked about the city of Ayutthaya in Buddhist Thailand, full of expatriates admiring ancient temples there. Later, before 8 in that morning, I walked to Starbucks, and I waited for my Filipino friend Greg, but he did not show up this time. I was drinking an

喺淡淡嘅朝早六點幾，我向住喺呢度露露島嘅 Tim Hortons 行去。我飲咗杯燕麥奶嘅 chai tea 同四芝士鹹味扭酥皮。後來，我嘅香港朋友 Gary 出現咗；佢屋企人喺呢個國家已經幾代人。除咗英文之外，佢識講粵語同華語。有啲人想住喺唔同嘅國家： Gary 想喺越南，特別係胡志明市，一年嘅部分時間住，因為佢喺嗰度有個女朋友。佢話佢喺嗰度唔會有太大嘅語言困難，儘管我知道嗰度大部分嘅標誌都係用越南文。佢建議我去菲律賓買樓，因為菲律賓會平好多。我話我唔係好鍾意一個 Xtian 國家。我講咗佛教泰國嘅大城府，充滿住喺嗰度欣賞古廟嘅外籍人士。後來，嗰朝八點前，我行去星巴克，我等緊我菲律賓朋友 Greg ，但係佢今次冇出現。我飲緊杯凍草莓燕麥抹茶拿鐵。今日係2025年1月5號。

Today's a rainy cooler spring day, the 16th of May of 2025. The last couple of days have been grey weather. Yesterday, at Tim Hortons café, I ate my first Chili from there. Michael L. J., my Dane-French ufologist friend, visited there. We looked at his videos on his cellphone, about bedroom light activities that he attributes to extraterrestrials. I don't mention the Zoo Hypothesis to him. He believes in the Grey Aliens or other humanoid outworlders. (I opine that outworlders may not necessarily be humanoids.) Michael and I also talked about our different snorkelling experiences in Mexico. I recounted to him about the temples at Tulum, on a cliff, overlooking a white beach and surrounded by jungle. I said that it looked "like a set in Star Trek." Michael said that he only saw it from far away. Today, anyway, I also went to Tim Hortons café, of which the highlight was my Lemon Poppyseed Muffin and later a Fruit Explosion Muffin. I had a Vanilla Oat Milk Cold Brew. I would try their Chil

今日係一個落雨涼爽嘅春天，2025年5月16號。過去幾日都係灰色嘅天氣。尋日，喺 Tim Hortons 嘅咖啡廳，我喺嗰度食咗我第一個辣椒。我嘅丹麥法國不明飛行學家朋友米高 L. J. 去咗嗰度。我哋喺佢部手機度睇咗佢啲片，講啲佢歸因於外星生物嘅睡房光活動。佢相信喺灰色外星人或者其他人類嘅外人世界入面（我認為外人可能唔一定係人類。）我同 Michael 亦都講咗我哋喺墨西哥嘅唔同浮潛經歷。我同佢講返圖魯姆嘅廟宇，喺懸崖上面，俯瞰住一個白色嘅海灘，周圍都係叢林。我話佢睇落「好似《星際迷航》入面嘅一個場景」。Michael 話佢只係喺好遠嘅地方見到。今日，無論點樣，我亦都去咗 Tim Hortons 咖啡館，當中嘅亮點係我嘅檸檬罌粟籽鬆餅，之後仲有個水果爆炸鬆餅。我飲咗一杯香草燕麥奶冷釀。我會再試吓佢哋嘅辣椒，另一次。我去咗 fruteria Kin's Farm Market ，尋日喺嗰度買咗越南紅菠蘿。我今日猶豫咗買唔買大白菇。
