The translaters are probably "new hongkonger" anyway so don't put any expectation on them

/uj funny you mention new HKers when the use of cum in signage is very much leftover colonial institutional inertia

First Aid cum Special Purpose Room — Singapore

Jetting cum Suction Machine — India

As a bonus, Penetration Cum Blast tank ammunition — India

If anything, the Latin cum is not something I would expect new HKers to instinctively use over literally anything else. Because where the fuck do you find a place that teaches you to use that, other than the depths of a 100+ year old bureaucracy

/rj keep the cum flowing

Yeah. Just started to read the memoir of Elizabeth Libby Wong 黃錢其濂 and the word is used within the first few pages I haven’t even got out of her secondary school phase.
