TURN TABLE FOR TRAIN

 Train was one of my fondest memory growing up in Lipis Pahang.

I still remember, the early morning trip from Bukit Betong to Kuala Lipis. In those days, 1960s, trains were still operating using the steam power. You can feel the refreshing warm steam in your face as the locomotive started to mobe toward Kuala Lipis.

I always wonder how the train, especially its head can turn around. This is how it did.

LOGHAT LIPIS

 This video shows how a typical people from Kuala Lipis speaks. I thought I had forgotten how to speak he dialects, but I was wrong. Put me among them, within no time, I will speak like them.

The dialect has some words unknown to peoples from other districts..




Some of the words that I can pick are:

1. deme - you - plural

2. Ranjas - the fruits were dropped by ... . Rengas means an act performed without and care.

3. Selayut - scare crow..
