粵典 (words.hk)Hong KongPhrase
#死亡 嘅婉辭；華夏文化入邊相傳人死咗之後會落地府受審，而#閻羅王 就係嗰個判官，去閻羅王嗰度報到即係死咗咁解 (a euphemism for death; literally: to go to where Yama King (the King of Hell) is and check in. In Chinese mythology, souls of the dead would be judged in the underworld by an entity called as 'Yama King' and to check in at his place by extension implies death.)
