三小 in Taiwanese literally translates as “what sperm?” But it means “what the fuck”.
the full saying is 看三小/看啥小
literally "see what semen?"
meaning more like "the f*** you looking at?"
E.g. https://youtu.be/x3bDhtuC5yk&t=241s
you can also say 供 (講) 三小 which means what the fuck are you saying?
There's a good one in Cantonese I learned from Hong Kong movies. It translates to "Are you talking?" but the implication is "You're making noise, but is that supposed to be human speech?" Lei guuung yeieh!?
