I'm not so sure but I think it's:

north is "saan"
south is "beht" with a weak "t" sound
region: don't know
red: "hoong"

Odd, I was told it was

North is Bac, and South is Nam.

South is "nam", more like... Ah'm gonna kill you! That "ah'm" sound. But not exactly the same inflection.

North is "bac" like... I don't know.

Red is "hoong". No equivalent in English, AFAIK.

Be more specific with "region".

I think you got north and south switched.

North= buck (silent k)
South= nam
region: dei kui ( an area)
red: hoong

That would be "hoong chaan gow." It means "red commie dog." When you call someone a dog in Chinese, you're basically saying bastard.
