BiLiBaLa

Definition: Pronounced as 'bee-lee-bah-la', this is a code-mixing onomatopoepic phrase used by native Hong Kongers in a 90's limerick to describe someone talking a lot, loudly or fast.

Usage: E.g. XXX(人名)未夠18歲學人揸飛機,跌落屎坑執玻璃,返到屋企唔忿氣,BiLiBaLa放臭屁,阿媽以為漏煤氣,原來衰仔放緊屁。(E.g. XXX (name) learned to drive a plane under 18 years old, and fell into the toilet to pick up the glass. He returned home feeling resentful, then kept talking a lot and made a stinky fart. His mother thought there was a gas leak, but it turned out that the bad boy was farting.)

Synonym: 嗶哩叭啦
