I've been to a few Chinese restaurants that have had Ho Fun on the menu. Never had the nerve to inquire.

I have a Shaw Brothers kung fu movie from the 70s called “Dirty Ho.”

It is actually pretty good, not what you might think, but I always wondered if them boys from Hong Kong had a clue about what the last part would grow to mean over here.

Gordon Liu baby, he rocks as the main character, and as Pai Mei and Johnny Mo in the Kill Bill films.

I think it’s the same in every language.

The translation would have to be Cantonese, not Mandarin.
