释义

名词

奎因街（Queen Street）的俗称。

DEFINITION

Noun

The colloquial name of Queen Street.

由来

奎因街是与桥北路（North Bridge Road）平行的第三条主要街道。
三马路奎因街与维多利亚街（Victoria Street，即 “小坡二马路”）正式名称的由来都是为了纪念维多利亚女王（Queen Victoria）。
由于三马路奎因街曾是欧亚人的聚集地，而本地福建话称欧亚人为 “色仔年”（sek ka nee，即马来语 Serani 的音译）。因此，二马路也有旧称 “色仔年街”（Sekani Street）。
新加坡殖民时期，三马路以印度移民的洗衣业闻名。
由于三马路也是早期福清人的发祥地，因此又俗称 “小福清”。

ETYMOLOGY

Queen Street is the third major road that runs parallel to North Bridge Road.
The names of both Queen Street and Victoria Street were to commemorate Queen Victoria.
Queen Street used to be an enclave for the Eurasians, and the local Hokkien term for Eurasians was sek ka nee (色仔年), a transliteration of the Malay term Serani. Hence, Queen Street was also previously known as “Sekani Street”.
During Singapore’s colonial period, Queen Street was known for the laundry businesses ran by Indian immigrants.
As Queen Street was where Fuqing immigrants prospered as well, it was also known as “小福清”.

例句

从 9 岁开始就帮忙外婆在 “小坡三马路”（现在的奎因路）巷子口卖蚝饼，因不想外婆手艺失传，学会后自己长大也开档口贩卖，一做就是 30 年。（《新明日报》，16/10/2019）

SAMPLE SENTENCE

Since I was nine, I had been helping my grandmother sell fried oyster cake at the entrance of Queen Street. As I did not want her craft to be lost, I picked it up and set up my own stall after growing up. It has been 30 years since. (Shin Min Daily News, 16/10/2019)
