Nice going Grace! Here are a few more for your collection..1) You say what is what 2) Lan Duck Chick 3) Bonn Sai Yea 4) All law, 5) Jah Bee, 6) Sak Bok Gor Jok - all clean stuff Okay to ask for help from your Canto friends.
I can’t stop feeling amazed by your Cantonese. Especially your mastery of the many tones. 👍🏻💪🏻💕
You can speak fluent Cantonese! I am so happy for you~ Just a kind reminder, idioms are not only 成語, but also 慣用語. 成語 is four words ,like people mountain people see(人山人海). But 你做初一 我做十五 and 你都有今日 are more than four words, so they are 慣用語. Keep going to learn Cantonese, support you!!!
Grace You re so lucky to have Ayuk as your friend and the guy at the background.
Fun video! Hope your subscribers become "People mountain people sea".
Thank you! Haha
A friend told me that " raining cats and dogs" originated many, many years ago when people lived in places with thatched roofs. When it started to rain heavily, the roofs would become unstable and the cats and dogs up on the roof would fall through!
Wowww, interesting!
This chinese idiom is part of a fuller idiom normally they contrast the first sentence and second sentence 今朝有酒今朝醉，明日愁来明日愁, if we have wine this morning we will be drunk this morning, problems for tomorrow we will worry about tomorrow
讲得非常流利 好好听 ， 讽刺的是现在广东小朋友不一定讲得咁好
現在廣東小朋友根本就不會說了，粵語在廣東被打壓。
廣東人10年前肯上街撐粵語……冇搞到我哋先都已經算係好好彩
@@lrt_unimog8316 X哪媽，頂硬上。如果我哋唔撑廣東話同繁體字，以後就冇咖啦
hi grace, 我係一個住o係香港o既香港人, 你真係講得好好!!! 好多人學廣東話講得o岩 d 音都好, 好多時都會錯文法, 但係你連 d 句子結構都o岩晒香港文化, 證明你真係好認真去學, 真係好欣賞你!!!
(hi grace, i am a hker living in hk, you really speak cantonese so well!!! many people do have learnt the pronounciation of cantonese but might have some grammar mistakes, however you could even get the sentence structure matching with hk style, it showed that you really learnt it with your heart, really appreciate you!!!)
*** i hope you are able to read my chinese typing (hk style XD), but just in case, so i also typed the english version, "add oil" and support~ 加油!!! ***
What a great teacher. She explained things very well and she's got such a cool demeanor. Keep surrounding yourself with good ppl Grace!
👍I love Terence Lam too 一人之境♥️
I really love watching your videos. I was born and raised in the US with canto as my first language but I only ever speak it with family or at my Chinatown so my vocabulary isn't amazing. You're my motivation to learn more!
Add oil!
Same! She knows so many more words than I do.
Cantonese language must be difficult to learn in the world,you are so clever and support you to learn. I come from Hong Kong.
Thanks for supporting Cantonese! ❤️
So glad you made a friend and had such a great time grace! Very considerate of you reupload the video with English subtitles!!
Thank you for watching!
This is so fun! Thanks for sharing with us 🥰
Awe, thank you for watching Brittany!
Wow this taught me a lot! I’m impressed you could keep pace with Ayuk as she speaks fast!
I learned a lot today! Some of these I've never heard of before. (the chicken one and 1st & 15th are new to me)
edit: I would watch a series on this - Grace learned Chinese Idioms
Me too. Never knew these idioms even existed.
The 1st & 15th is one of my families favorite sayings lol
I can't understand how can Grace learn Cantonese. It is amazing. I agree with A yuk. Grace is really a positive girl. Grace! Fighting
It’s raining cats and dogs 其實廣東話都有差唔多嘅，就係「落雨落到好似落狗屎咁」(it’s raining dog sh*t) 用嚟形容落好大雨(pouring)搞到會好狼狽嘅程度。
Your Cantonese is sounding very natural! I can see you are picking up more and more idioms too. Great job, keep it up! :)
Hi Grace, I saw your video in collaboration with Ayuk for Cantonese English challenge. For 'This morning have alcohol, this morning drunk - 今朝有酒今朝醉', you interpreted it correctly as this Chinese idiom really has such negative underlying meaning which sarcastically implies someone just enjoying the present moment without considering the future or consequence. This is the common interpretation nowadays. You are literally such a genius and will be bees knees in Cantonese/Chinese or anything else you want. Keep going, just Bob's your uncle for learning Cantonese. Ciao.
Hi, I'm from HK and will be in UK very very soon. Though will not be in London but near London. It's happy to know you love Cantonese. You Cantonese is very good.
This was really helpful, definitely will use some of those!
Very useful
Technically 6 tones, but often the ending vowels P, T and K are considered tones 7-8-9. I've seen this in a couple reference doc and it's also how my cantonese teacher thought them to me.
so nostalgic to see cantonese spell in english phonetics!! back in school, my generation used to always text like this only😆💙 yun wai gum yeung da ji ho fai, d irrelevant people yau ng wui yau sum gei hui read d message, darn hai yud yau typo jau ho yung yi misunderstand each others ahahaaaa
Guresu, you are a very intelligent young lady. keep your good work up, you look like you could be Tinie Tempah sister.?
I’m trying to learn Cantonese and this helps! I’m sure this is going to help when I travel.
Such a fun video! 😆 好鍾意聽你講廣東話～
you improved since the last time I saw your video few month ago, the intonation got better and more fluent now ~
Yayyy, I’m so happy to hear that!
To combine tones and intonation is
quite a feat !!
Love this! You know so much!
講得好清楚，❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I like watching your videos because I'm 3rd generation BBC and my Cantonese is really bad can't understand my grandparents but you speak really slowly and I can understand 90% of it I would love love to be friends I'm from east London
You really need to be in a fully Cantonese environment to really improve your language skills. In London, you are in an English environment outside your household which makes it less likely to use Cantonese outside of chinatown.
Wow, girlfriend, you rock! This was a lot of fun!
you speak Cantonese is very great.thank for your video.
Grace ur Cantonese is amazing! 你d廣東話好勁！
guresu, you are very smart, my english can not reach the good level as your cantonese level so you are awesome.
Wow you speak Cantonese really well. Amazing video.
Your video is good. I like your English subtitles. I can learn English from your channel. 💪🏻💪🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Greetings from HK! Stumbled upon your 果籽 interview just 10 min ago. Truly inspiring! Keep up with the good work!
Cantonese idioms are quite difficult for foreigners, but we would be so impressed if you could master them!
I will try my best
@@Guresu 只要有恆心，鐵柱磨成針！（a very encouraging phrase means if you keep trying hard, an iron rod would be sharpened to a needle, which means you will succeed）you can ask Ayuk teach you this one :)
@@hokyant 只要功夫深铁杵磨成针。
If your Kung Fu is deep, an iron bar can become a needle.
Awesome video thanks.
Glad you liked it!
Awesome! And very enjoyable! After two in the morning 😳 night!
Haha thanks for watching!
Awesome video! Love the energy you two have together. I learned so much - and I will forget it all tomorrow. What’s amazing Grace, is that you won’t. And I’ve been “speaking” Cantonese for almost 50 years!
👍
Theres a way to memorise all the tones - 三碗半牛腩麵一百碟
your cantonese is amazing!! u r so talented!
Your pronunciation is really on point. Keep going!
These Cantonese idioms are very interesting.😆😆
你好叻啊，Grace! Raining cats and dogs 嘅廣東話係咪"落狗屎"？
可以咁用👍
Nailed it
Yes
Hi Grace, I'm Joanne, HK, I lived in UK too few years ago ;) I learnt about you through the Apple daily, nice to meet you! Do you fancy to have a HK buddy? We can practice Cantonese together with my Dutch fiance who is also learning (not limited to just the language), maybe you can share your tips to help him overcome the obstacles if you want. I'm also learning Dutch so I'm really impressed by your Cantonese and passion, looking forward to experience together language learning & culture!
i am learning English from you too, Grace ^/ ^
多謝各位外國朋友學廣東話
Hi Grace I am a native Cantonese speaker too , while I am pleased and impressed with your Cantonese skills, just wondering what make you so interested in Cantonese learning when compared with other languages you also know?
Hi Grace, You are amazing ! You got a lot of correct answers 😃👍👍very talented
Good choices Ayuk!!! Good job Grace!!!
There are many slang in Cantonese. The more you communicate with the Cantonese, the more you will learn.
Wow... You have learned a lot 👍
Wow, love this. Idioms are awesome, thanks for sharing your love for languages!
Hi Grace, I'm from Hong Kong. You are really INTELLIGENT and you are speaking really GREAT Cantonese, just like native !!
Keep it up and really thanks for your effort to promote Cantonese 😊
love u guys💐
Grace you should do a video on Hong Kong memes and buzzwords. They are hilarious 😂
It's really interesting
There’s a canton saying: lok6 gau2 si2 (down dog shit) which is similar meaning to “raining cats and dogs”🤣
九聲 六調 其中三個係短促音
nei yao kam yat / you got today is something like you're days are numbered in English, right?
加油Grace
Is this idiom also used in Chinese Mandarin?
cantonese - it's raining dog shit outside hahaha
支持廣東話
Sometimes you need to think deeper to understand Cantonese idioms
for example, 屎坑關公 lit. means Kwan Yu in the toilet refers to you can't neither smell (because of the odour in the toilet, it's pronounced as same as 文 - scholar) nor play with a sword (舞, which is pronounced as same as 武 - martial)
OMG好叻呀你😍😍😍
4:12 who is the guy behind 🙇🏻
LOL Grace is too positive. Most of these sayings are so bïtchy LOL.
你都有今日 - 报应 = best translates as "your day will come"
Not really. "Your day will come" actually has the opposite meaning. It's "used for saying that someone will become successful in the future even though they are not successful now. "
From www.macmillandictionary.com/dictionary/british/someone-s-day-will-come
I learnt the English version (a follower who speaks Cantonese XD)
I’m from Hong Kong but I don’t even know what’s 今朝飲酒今朝醉🤣
粵語流利
a-yuck 🤧
But you are very amazing! 🎗💝
Add oil!!!!
點解吾順勢講 "落狗屎", raining dog's poo
I would like to tell you that idiom should be 俚語 in Chinese, 成語 is proverb, 成語 are mostly in 4 Chinese characters.
Cantonese should involves 9 tones as well.
Add oil from hk!
like 你做初一我做15
It is related to the lunar calendar, 初一is the beginning and when the thing progress, on 15, it is time to revenge
It is idiom but not 成語
To be more exact, "idiom" is "諺語". "俚語" should be "slang".
channel pan4 dou6 频道
I know but I’m so used to saying channel now haha
@@Guresu but you should not cheat and use English but stay with the Chinese.
好有趣，阿玉越嚟越肥！kakaka……
你進步好快 口音越來越少👍💪
more fluent
Most of them are not 成語，call them 諺語 would be better
卜卜趣。妳明這句講乜鬼？
你粵語好過好多廣州人 加油！
