ぼうやったら Dragonball Vol1. 84


This is what the old country lady says when Goku "パンパン" her to check if she's
a woman. Just before meeting Oolong for the first time. What I can understand
would be something like: "Best if you do it with a stick".

But that looks like an inappropriate statement for a kid's manga!!!




It's best to show us the full context, but this feels like 「坊やったら」 where 坊や
and ったら are separate elements to me. That would be something like 'Oh, you
[naughty] boy!' ったら after a word referring to somebody usually indicates some
sort of exasperation with them. 坊や is a word for a young boy.

Note that 坊や doesn't necessarily always mean a _naughty_ boy; the scolding
element here is in ったら.
