香港中英夾雜字典

定義: A code-mixing term used by working class Hong Kongers to illustrate the distance between two parties in terms of their communication, which is often due to their difference in job positions or departments in a company.

用法: E.g. 其實呢啲communication gap 大家可以做好D減少誤會，寫多兩句confirm is better。(As for these communication gaps, it is better for us all to try and minimise misunderstandings by saying 'confirm' more.)
