動詞
字面上指燃點炮杖,但現今炮仗因危險而受法例管制,日常對話中使用「燒炮仗」通常只係為左誇張語氣,未必作實。以「燒炮仗」舉動形容慶祝,有要故意令到件事眾所周知嘅意味,常係幸災樂禍時用。 to burn the firecracker; since the use of firecracker was restricted nowadays, the phase is an exaggerated expression rather than real action. It also contains ironic tone.
今鋪陳議員終於落選,大家一齊燒炮仗賀賀佢!
今铺陈议员终于落选,大家一齐烧炮仗贺贺佢!
Councellor Chan finally lost this time, let's burn the firecracker and celebrate.
