How it's used
This name is a portmanteau formed by combining the first characters of Yau Ma Tei, Tsim Sha Tsui, and Mong Kok. It is the standard administrative term used in official government documents and news reports. Locals often refer to the area simply by its constituent parts rather than the full district name when discussing specific neighborhoods.
