  3. Engkoaf 🔊 (Efng+koaf; Hoaguo: 鶯歌 Yīnggē): These Harnji refer to Yingge District in southwestern New Taipei City (Sinpakchi). On the northern side of Yingge lies a formation that went by the names of 哥石 (Parrot Stone), 哥石 (Eagle Brother Stone), and 哥石 (Golden oriole or Warbler Brother Stone). The last stone is where the current name of the district derives from. The modern name "Yingge" (鶯歌) literally means "Warbler Song" in Chinese. However, the place is still called Engkøf in Taiwanese.
