  1. 🎉🦸‍♂️Hold onto your chimney sweeps! The man with elastic limbs and accents thicker than British fog allegedly turns 100, according to The Guardian's marathon-scroll of self-congratulatory drivel. Maybe by 200 he'll master a #Cockney accent! 😆🎂

    You said: "What is so different about the Taiwanese dialect of Hokkien that it needs a different name?" I gave you direct answers with the examples of #Québecois (which uses a different name from #French 🇫🇷) and #Taiwanese 🇳🇫 which contains many words not used in #Hokkien 🇨🇳 (Does #Cockney deserve its own name?), and you're still not satisified.
