定義: A code-mixing term used by upper class Hong Kongers to refer to the stage of a meal where the main dish is served. As to why ‘course’ is more often used than ‘dish’ compared to the Cantonese phrase ‘主菜‘, it may be to do with the upper class etiquette that the stage of a meal is more important than the dish itself.

用法: E.g. 食semi-buffet質素好過buffet, 起碼個main course係入得落口 (The quality of eating semi-buffet is higher than buffet, at least the main course is decent.)

同義詞: 主菜

用法: E.g. 無論班女仔fd幾大班，三個又好，五個又好，十幾個又好，都係得我係single dog (No matter how big my group of female friends is, three or five or ten, I am the single dog.)

同義詞: 單身狗
