Spotted a person claiming to study this style
Can anybody shed any light on it
(Eric didn't mean to do the last thread perhaps you could delete it)

Hi NSLK, Could we have it in Mandarin pinyin? Or English equivalent? It tough for some of us to understand Cantonese. Besides Evert ( a mixed-up half Dutch/half Cantonese ;D), the rest of us are more comfy with Mandarin/Fukien. Thanks.  |

Da jia ni men hao Sounds more Cantonese to my ears. Nam Siu Lam = Nan Shao Lin = Southern Shaolin Ehm =  Yeng = Yang (?) Kuen = Kun = Fist Cheers. |

Sounds indeed Cantonese, I would say a phonetical translation of Ng Ying Kuen. In Hung Kuen - main stream - this means Five Animals. But in the Singapore scene this could be Five Elements too? Maybe Tze Hou can shine some light on this?
In Mandarin it is sounded as Shaolin Wu Xing Quan, or Five Pattern Boxing.
Warm regards,
Evert.

Good day everybody.
Yes to me it sounds like the phonetical equivalent of Ng Ying Kuen. Would this be referring to the 5 animals or 5 elements? Some more clarification regarding the intricacies or a Mandarin translation would better aid us.
Warmest regards,
Tze Hou
