Taiwan — Phrase #10

靠北喔～ (Khàu-pè ô~)
kʰau˥˩ pe˥˩ o˧
Literal: Oh come on!
Feels like: Among close friends, stretching the final syllable with a rising, laughing tone transforms this from complaint to affectionate disbelief — "are you serious right now?" But this tonal transformation only works with established intimacy. Wrong tone or wrong relationship = genuine irritation
