"mak kau hijau" meaning in All languages combined

See mak kau hijau on Wiktionary

Interjection [Malay]

Forms: مق کاو هيجاو [Jawi]
Etymology: Literally "your mother is green". From a video where two boys fight and make up bizarre insults against each other. Although the hijau (literally “green”) in this phrase may have been nonsensical, there are various speculations regarding its definition, including a possible insult at the other boy's race or skin colour (the slur Keling can be heard immediately in the following, likely by indirect colour analogy of hitam) or "hijau" referring to virginity.
