Guru, thanks for confirmation on the meanings. In
reality, depends on how the user means it to be. Background
is that one orang tua cannot get along with the mother in law, she
is not easy to get along. My mum used Ir Zi to describe her.
In this context, I believe is the teochew meaning.
I see.
One more confirmation that your mum has "churik" wholesale this
phrase from Teochew rather than the assumption that she has
preserved the original phrase from her native Hokkien.
