Khix

khix (khi3) can refer to a few ideas :

  • 去: to go/to drop; to throw away
  • 棄: reject/discard
  • 器: receptacle/vessel/utensil
  • 氣: air, gas, steam, vapor; breath, spirit; smell/anger

khix in the sense of "to go" will be pronounced in the high short tone (KQchiog-Ym) when followed by another word. For example, in "Lie beq khix tQfui?", the "khix" will be spoken as "khih". Normally a Extut-Ym (Low Falling Tone) word will tone sandhi into Sioxngtut-Ym (Shouting-Out Tone).
