What does the doll in Guangdong mean?

In Cantonese, "doll" is a very common word, which means "doll". On the streets of Guangdong, we can see many children holding all kinds of dolls. These dolls may be cartoon characters, or they may be the protagonists in a game or movie. They are all children's favorite toys.

The word "doll" in Cantonese not only refers to children's toys, but also has another meaning, that is, the name of the informant. When someone reports the illegal behavior of others to his superiors or authorities, he may be called a "doll". The derogatory meaning of this word is very obvious. Many people will think that this kind of behavior is a sign of treachery, but some people think that the whistleblower's report can sometimes be described as a just act.

The word "doll" is not only used in reality, but also widely used in Guangdong's network culture. In the game world, dolls usually refer to characters with high attributes and cute looks. These roles are usually necessary for top-up users or high-end players, that is, some "soft advertisements" with special purposes. With the popularity of mobile internet, this word has been widely recognized by young people and has become an indispensable part of network language.
