由来
  • 19 世纪时期，本地先贤胡亚基（1816 - 1880）在芒加脚地段开辟了名为 “南生花园” 的花园别墅，并在花园里种植了许多菠萝蜜树。
  •  菠萝蜜在马来语中是 nangka，但有一种说法认为是不会马来语的早期福建与潮州移民把它说成 mangga，因此音译为芒加。
  • “脚” 在福建话有下面、底下、以及最低处的意思，因此 “芒加脚” 即为 “菠萝蜜树下” 的意思。
ETYMOLOGY
  • In the 19th century, the late pioneer Hoo Ah Kay (1816-1880) built a garden villa known as Whampoa Gardens in the mang ka kar area, and planted many jackfruit trees in the garden.
  • The jackfruit is called nangka in the Malay language. It is believed that the early Hokkien and Teochew immigrants who could not speak Malay pronounced it as mang ka instead, which transliterated into “芒加”.
  • The Hokkien term kah means beneath, below or the lowest point, so mang ka kar means “under the jackfruit tree”.
