Folks found it funny but some perhaps thought this was for real.
If you’re familiar with the Terengganu accent, you’ll understand why.
For those scratching your heads, it’s because the Terengganu accent sees an extra letter G added to the end of certain words. For instance, ikan (fish), when spoken in the Terengganu accent, sounds like “ikang”.
The G is normally added to words that end with the letter N. So since collection ends with an N, when spoken in the accent, it might sound like “collectiong”.
So did Mixue have a bit of fun with their signage in Terengganu?
The short answer is NO. Mixue does not currently operate an outlet in Terengganu.
Also, if you look closely at the video, the prices of the items are listed in KIP, and not RM.
This means the outlet with the “collectiong” sign is possibly somewhere in Laos. We have not been able to verify the exact outlet though.
We did try to contact Mixue Laos through Facebook and asked why their sign said “collectiong”.
We have yet to receive a reply.
