How it's used
Refers specifically to a structure built for housing pigs, often found in older rural areas or farms. It is a formal or descriptive term rather than a word used in everyday urban conversation, as most people in Hong Kong do not encounter these structures directly. It carries a slightly rustic or agricultural connotation.
