Word of the day

The Cantonese word of the day is: Zee dai kong

This roughly translates as "Thinks he is the best at everything" (arrogant)

I learnt this after talking to someone who is very Zee dai kong earlier today.

After this conversation I requested the Cantonese word for arrogant from a co-worker. As this was my best summary of the person I had just talked to.
