Gigolo translated as 基哥儿龙（音）?

Question

There was some HK movie that translated (read: transliterated) gigolo as something like 基哥儿龙（音）.

I cannot find anything online with different combinations of characters for ji-ger-long.

Any ideas what the phrase was?

Answer 1

If it is a Hong Kong movie, it is likely in Cantonese

基 is transliteration of 'gay'

/gei1/

[5] (Cantonese slang only) phonetic translation of "gay" i.e. male homosexual e.g. 搞基,

哥

/go1/

It is common to address a man with a suffix "哥", e.g. 晶哥 [zing1 go1*4], 叻哥 [lek1 go1*4].*

remember 犀利哥?

牛郎

/ngau4 long4 /

a gigolo, a male sex worker

牛郎 is a male sex worker (serving older female mostly)

基哥牛郎 most likely refers to 'male sex worker (specialized in serving male clients)'
