Thank you Godwine.

What we are probably looking at is an Okinawan transliteration of a Hokkien term, that would sound very different in Putonghua (Manderin).

I am now trying to find the Hokkien pronounciation for these three Chinese characters. I await developments and will report any findings.

Thank you GodWine.
