English

  1. to lose one's virginity (applies to women only) [colloquial]
  2. to lose one's virginity before get married, mostly for women. In Chinese traditional marriage there's a ritual called "return bride's home on the third day", if verified the bride is a virgin, the groom will bring along a grilled piggy as a gift, if not virgin, then no grilled piggy, so "lose pig" is used to imply a girl loses her virginity before marriage. Literally: to lose one's pig

粵語 — Cantonese

  1. 通常形容未婚女性失去貞操、俾人破處。中國傳統婚禮有「三朝回門」儀式,若證實新娘係處女,新郎會帶同燒豬一齊返娘家回禮,如非處女就唔會送燒豬,因此以「失豬」比喻處女嘅第一次在婚前被奪去。

Examples

  • 依家啲女仔中學未畢業就失豬,真係世風日下。

    Nowadays the girls lose her virginity while still in secondary school, morals are really declining.
