“电灯胆”这个词，在粤语里通常用来形容妨碍小两口拍拖恩爱的家伙，这样的角色当然是很令人讨厌的。不过为什么要用“电灯胆”来形容这些碍眼的人呢？原来在早年，广东地区民风淳朴，思想保守，父母看到女儿有人追求，既喜又怕，担心女儿吃亏，于是一旦女儿被男友约出门，就会派幼年子女陪同姐姐应男友之约。所以在那时候，男女拍拖，多了一个小朋友同行，是件平常事。这个不知趣而又摆脱不了的小孩，就叫“电灯胆”了。很多人以为叫他做“电灯胆”，是因为电灯会发光，影响现场的浪漫气氛，其实这是个误解。电灯胆一词，来源于一句歇后语“电灯胆——唔通气”。灯泡，里面是要把空气抽空，不能通气的，而广东话里“唔通气”，是指一个人不懂得人情世故，不知回避的意思。所以这个碍手碍脚的小朋友，就被称为“电灯胆”，而他这种妨碍哥哥姐姐拍拖的行为，则称为“剥花生”。原来，哥哥姊姊谈情说爱时，怕陪伴而来的弟妹生闷，通常会买些零食，让他们打发时间的。当年的零食不多，以花生最为普遍，于是，坐在一旁的小朋友，便以“剥花生”来解闷了！
