there are some affixes to Hoklo names, such as tor (堵), that often appear in names of places along rivers and are often preceded by numbers.
- Sietor (四堵): Sinpag Chi, Pvinaa Khw
- Goxtor (五堵): Køelaang & Taipag
- Lagtor (六堵): borough of Køelaang, Chittor Khw
- Chittor (七堵): Køelaang
- Pøehtor (八堵): Køelaang, Loafnloarn Khw
are some, but nobody seems to be able to accurately explain what to means.
