Guide To Shouting Lucky Phrases During Lo Hei
At the heart of celebrating Chinese New Year, lies the iconic prosperity Yu Sheng ‘toss’, also known as “Lo Hei” in Cantonese. It is a ritual that Asians have already grown fond of. It involves violently tossing up the contents of various ingredients high up in the air, while shouting auspicious phrases. Basically, it is believed that the higher you go, the more prosperous you will get.
For some, it can get a little confusing when it comes to tossing Yu Sheng (raw fish) during Lo Hei. Which ingredient should go first? What is the appropriate term to say? While there are different variations of Yu Sheng found in different restaurants, for a start, here’s our handy guide so you can finally *aha* not mumble under your breath and stress over what to say.
1. Raw Fish:
Say: Nian Nian You Yu
Symbolises: Abundance and surplus throughout the year—having more each year.
2. Pomelo
Say: Da Ji Da Li
Symbolises: Great prosperity; good fortunes and luck.
3. Spices
Say: Zhao Cai Jin Bao
Symbolises: To attract great wealth and treasures.
4. Oil
Say: Cai Yuan Guang Jin
Symbolises: The increase of all profits 10,000 times and for money and wealth to flow in from every direction.
5. Peanuts
Say: Jin Yin Man Wu
Symbolises: A household filled with gold and silver (wealth)
6. Sesame
Say: Sheng Yi Xing Long
Symbolises: Business to flourish and increase in profit.
7. Golden Crackers
Say: Man Di Huang Jin
Symbolises: The whole floor would be filled with gold, representing more gold than one can spend.
8. Plum Sauce
Say: Tian Tian Mi Mi
Symbolises: To wish for a sweet and loving relationship amongst family members and couples.
