女人街, 通菜街, 金魚街, 西洋菜南街, 波鞋街, 花園街, 雀仔街, 廟街, 鴨寮街, 石板街, 砵典乍街, 摩羅街, 囍帖街, 利東街, 彌敦道, 軒尼詩道, 亞皆老街, 登打士街, 荷李活道 and 花墟 were each looked up on words.hk. The street names themselves have no page. The readings below are from to-jyutping only. Those pages do not say where a street is, or what is sold there.

金魚 has no page. The converter, given 金魚 alone, returns gam1 jyu2. Joined into 金魚街, it returns gam1 jyu4 gaai1. The tone of 魚 moves from jyu2 to jyu4. Both results come from the converter. There is no entry to check them against.

波鞋 has a page, bo1 haai4: shoes worn for sport in general. The English gives trainers, sports shoes, sneakers. The measures are 隻 or 對. The example asks how long the pair has been worn and says they look old. 著 is marked zoek3. 波鞋街 has no page. The converter gives bo1 haai4 gaai1. The first two syllables match the 波鞋 page.

雀仔 zoek3 zai2 is a general name for a small bird, measure 隻. The collocation is 養雀仔. The example is a small bird falling into water. 雀仔街 has no page. The converter gives zoek3 zai2 gaai1. 康樂街 hong1 lok6 gaai1 and 園圃街 jyun4 pou2 gaai1 have no page either.

囍帖 and 喜帖 share one entry, both hei2 tip2: a card inviting someone to a wedding, measure 張. The example asks whether their invitation has arrived. The see-also list names 紅色炸彈, which has no page. 囍帖街 has no page. The converter gives hei2 tip2 gaai1. 利東街 lei6 dung1 gaai1 has none either.

女人 has a page, neoi5 jan2, an adult woman, measure 個. The converter reads 女人街 as neoi5 jan2 gaai1, the same syllables. The street name still has no page. 花園 faa1 jyun2 is a garden planted for rest, measure 個. 花園街 faa1 jyun2 gaai1 matches those two syllables. The street name has no page.

街 gaai1 is an outdoor road for people or vehicles, usually between buildings, measure 條. Collocations include 大街 daai6 gaai1 and 橫街 waang4 gaai1. The converter gives gaai1 for the last syllable of the street names above.

The page for 道 has one entry. It is also written 度, read dou6. The gloss is a place, a spot, or the range of an activity or a state. The collocations are 「呢度」「嗰度」「喺度」「邊度」, all this “where” sense. A road, or an avenue, is not what this page writes. The converter gives 彌敦道 nei4 deon1 dou6, 軒尼詩道 hin1 nei4 si1 dou6 and 荷李活道 ho4 lei5 wut6 dou6. The last syllable matches 度 in 呢度. The entry does not take the street names in.

廟 has two entries. The first is miu2, a building for worshipping a deity, measure 間 or 座. The collocation 天后廟 marks 廟 as miu2, because 廟 is the last character. The second is miu6, the reading when 廟 is not at the end of the word. Collocations: 廟祝 miu6 zuk1, 廟宇 miu6 jyu5. In 廟街, 廟 is not last. The converter still gives miu2 gaai1, which matches the first entry and not the non-final one. to-jyutping, given 廟祝 alone, returns miu6 zuk1, which matches the entry. The player uses 廟祝.

The first 鴨 entry lists both aap2 and aap3: a common water bird, usually the domestic kind, measure 隻. The collocation 鴨蛋 uses aap3. The lake example uses aap2. The second entry is tagged with the vice label and reads only aap2. Its near synonym is 雞. That example is not quoted. 鴨寮街 has no page. The converter gives aap3 liu4 gaai1, which matches aap3 on the first entry. 石板 has no page. 石板街 is sek6 baan2 gaai1.

上街 soeng5 gaai1 is a verb, to demonstrate in the street. 摩羅街 mo1 lo4 gaai1 and 摩羅上街 mo1 lo4 soeng5 gaai1 have no page. The last two syllables of 摩羅上街 match the verb. The verb page does not mention the street name.

Two more names exist only in the converter: 通菜街 tung1 coi3 gaai1 and 西洋菜南街 sai1 joeng4 coi3 naam4 gaai1.

花墟 appears on the see-also list of the 維園 entry. The list says the similar vocabulary is taken from ToastyNews, so it is not a gloss. The 花墟 page itself does not open. The converter gives faa1 heoi1, and 花墟道 faa1 heoi1 dou6.

砵典乍街 but3 din2 zaa3 gaai1, 登打士街 dang1 daa2 si6 gaai1. 亞皆老街 aa3 gaai1 lou5 gaai1 puts both 皆 and 街 on gaai1, and 老 on lou5.
