IPA: /t͡sʰaːu̯³⁵ kaːi̯³³ laːn²¹⁻³⁵/ [Cantonese, Sinological-IPA], /t͡sʰaːu̯³⁵ kaːi̯³³ laːn²¹⁻³⁵/ Chinese transliterations: caau² gaai³ laan⁴⁻² [Cantonese, Jyutping], cháau gaai láan [Cantonese, Yale], tsaau² gaai³ laan⁴⁻² [Cantonese, Pinyin], cao² gai³ lan⁴⁻² [Cantonese, Guangdong-Romanization] Forms: 炒⫽芥蘭 [canonical], 炒芥兰
Etymology: There are two theories for the soccer slang: * From figurative sense, due to resemblance of the vegetable to human thighs. * Phono-semantic matching of English charley horse. However, "charley horse" actually means "muscle cramp in legs" and does not correspond exactly to the sense in Cantonese.
