Yau Ma Tei

Yau Ma Tei, also known as Waterloo (see Name section), is an area in the Yau Tsim Mong District in the south of the Kowloon Peninsula in Hong Kong.
==Name==
''Yau Ma Tei'' is a phonetic transliteration of the name 油麻地 (originally written as 油蔴地) in Cantonese. It can also be spelt as Yaumatei, Yau Ma Ti, Yaumati or Yau-ma-Tee.
''Yau'' (油) literally means "oil", ''Ma'' (麻 or 蔴) can either refer to "sesame" or "jute", and ''Tei'' () means "field" or "open ground". Hence, ''Yau Ma Tei'' can be interpreted to mean either "oil-sesame field" or "oil and jute ground". This dual-interpretation is perhaps the reason why there are two explanations for the origin of the place name.〔(Architectural Conservation Office, HKSAR Government. (2008). ''Heritage Impact Assessment Report of the Yau Ma Tei Theatre & Red Brick Building'' ) Retrieved October 21, 2009〕
The area is also named Waterloo in English, after Waterloo Road. This name was used for the MTR station in the area when it was opened in 1979.
