References and Footnotes[]

  1. Chinese Kinship Titles
  2. While it is difficult to romanize Chinese due to its status as a tonal language (see here: [1] ), it's most likely Ivy's grandparents were originally from Guangdong Province and are fluent in Taishanese as it was the predominant variant of the Cantonese dialect of 19th- and 20th-century immigrants from China to San Francisco. (Additional reference: [2])
  3. The Puzzle of the Paper Daughter, pg. 135: [Jimmy] turned to Po Po. "Your story about Angel Island was fascinating, Mrs. Sun." As Sun is Po Po's married name, it is most likely Gung Gung's family (last) name, and Mrs. Ling's maiden name.
