Leih yauh moh sih a?
你有冇事呀?
Wrong.

"Leih yauh moh sih a?" is not exactly wrong (lazy sound notwithstanding). It's just that the Yale diacritical marks are missing (probably because it's difficult to input).

Also as for translating 你有冇事呀? to "Are you all right?": I can see this as being acceptable.
I would not, however translate as "Ho M Ho a?" Instead, I would translate that as "how are you?"

Furthermore, it should me Do je saai not Do je sai
