Tangga Series : Of Lambor and Selasor

Tangga Series : In some of Terengganu's traditional house concept, the flight of steps will not end up directly to the main door but instead it rest on a platform, of which in certain part of Terengganu, Losong especially, called it as "Selasor". In some other area of Terengganu named this platform as "Lambor".

Whenever casual guest came in visiting, unless very official or berhajat besar, normally the meet and greet will be only on "atas lambor".

Whenever too, when a far a time in between, a Tok Sheikh Jual Permata came in visiting, the business will be conducted "atas selasor" too..

Tangga Series : The House of Tok Yam

"Terjun tidak bertangga" adalah satu ungkapan dalam pertuturan slanga Terengganu yang membawa maksud cara bertindak dalam satu keadaan yang sangat cemas sehinggakan tidak membuat perkara sebagaimana kebiasaanya.

Sebagai contoh, mari kita lihat keadaan ini: "Ambe tadi dudop mmasok dapor, lepas tu dengor gedegung macam orang ttepoh mutor. Junga tengok ikut tinkak, tengok anok amber nya gi tepoh batang nyior dengan mutor. Ambe sakning terjung dok ttangga hungga mari. Nasek baik takdok benda benda, mutor jer pecoh sebeng"

Which is : " l was at the kitchen, cooking. Then l heard a crash sound similar to someone crashing with a motorbike. Take a look via my kitchen's window and found my son crashed to the coconut tree with the motorbike. So, l was "terjun tak bertangga" to reach to my son. Luckily, nothing was serious, only the plastic fairing on the bike was broken to pieces"
