Cantonese lesson 1: pronouns (I, you, he/she 我你佢)

- Hi! Welcome to 5 minutes Cantonese.
I am Amanda from Hong Kong. I enjoy language learning. I speak cantonese, english, mandarin, Italian and German.
I guess whenever you tell the Cantonese speakers that you want to learn Cantonese. They will appreciate a lot, but the next minute they will tell you it's very difficult, almost like a mission impossible. So at the end you try to memorize few expressions by heart or simply give up.
I am not a professional teacher, but I am a professional student. I love to share how I learn language and try to use my own stupid way to teach you. I hope I can help you to make some simple sentences. Don't just try to surprise your cantonese friend with Cantonese foul language(I know it's the easiest way). But you know what I mean... 😂
I have another channel to teach Cantonese in italian. I put English subtitles there. Hope you enjoy.
As I mentioned, I am not a professional teacher. Please leave me comments if you have any.
Sorry, I have made a typing mistake of "to buy", 買 ，it should be "maai5" instead of "Maan"
Thank you!

I am Amanda from Hong Kong. I make easy and practical cantonese learning videos for complete beginners to intermediate level.
My full time job is a flight attendant. I enjoy studying foreign languages. My job allows me to visit many places and meet many people. So that I have more chances to practice what I have learned.
Due to the covid, I haven't fly regularly for over a year. I find UA-cam is extremely helpful for maintaining my language proficiency. One day, out of curiosity, I looked for cantonese learning channels. I was so surprised that there are so little and most of the good one are even from overseas. That's why I started "5 minute cantonese" on 2020.
I’m a language professional, and you’re one of the best teachers out there. You’ve provided an invaluable resource for the world to learn! Thank You!!!
Thank you very much for your comment 😊
What's a language professional? Is that like those who study etymology or something?
@@Popo-br8xqhe’s probably an ESL teacher who wanted to find the equivalent of ‘mixologist’ for his job.
Dear Amanda, Normally, someone teaching Cantonese misses out the pronouns or concentrates on the tones and the learner is overwhelmed after a few minutes. The way you teach is excellent.
Welcome to 5 minute Cantonese.
Thank you very much for your comment
I hope you enjoy learning 😉
Thanks for the video!
1:20 am = hai6 = to be (only one used)
1:30 I - ngo5
1:40 - you - nei 5 (sounds like L)
1:49 he/she (no genders) - cui5
2:25 to eat (sounds like sick) = sik6
2:45 to buy (sounds like mai) =
3:20 They (you , we, they - plural) nei5 dei6
This was a fantastic lesson. I'm glad you broke down things by basic without overwhelming the listener. Thank you!
Welcome to 5 minutes Cantonese
Your teaching style works much better for me than many other videos I've tried and I feel like I'm learning more effectively - which is also very motivating. Thank you so much for making these!
Thank you very much! Hope you enjoy watching!
Dear Amanda, I have Chinese blood in me but because I came to live in the USA since I was young, I don't speak much Cantonese. I am so glad to have found your channel, which is one of the best Cantonese teaching channels out there. I hope I will be able to learn and speak Cantonese in a about a year or two. Thank you so much, Teacher!
Welcome to 5 minute Cantonese! I hope you enjoy learning 😊
This is the most popular video, so for anyone else starting to learn cantonese, DON'T GIVE UP! Amanda is probably the best teacher on youtube, I'm on lesson 7 and I haven't lost motivation! Plus it helps to pause and screenshot the words to use as flashcards later for review!
Thank you very much! 💪🏻keep going
This is going to be harder then i thought, Im trying to be able to say something to my boyfriends parents. Wish me luck!
💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻You can do it
Good luck
Let's ask your mater uncle Han to help about it.

It helps a lot!
Thank you very much 😊
Keep watching!
Ohh! As Canto speaker who is born in Canada I am glad that you're teaching me the colloquial words and how to write them. Thanks!
You are most welcome 😀
Just found this channel. I’m half Cantonese but have a hard time picking up. However, so far this teaching style and break downs helps and they way you explain the word groups to make sense of it, and how to pronounce it. Although this video alone will probably take me a week to understand, which me I’ll have a reaaaallly long way to go, I still feel your channel will help the best. And I’ve tried the Cantonese 101 channel. I just couldn’t get it: l
welcome to 5 minute Cantonese
Hi Amanda, thanks for creating this channel for teaching cantonese. I find your lessons very interesting and I hope I can pick up cantonese by starting watching your videos. 你的广东话说得很标准，很好听。好西利喔！
Thank you very much!
Welcome. I hope when the borders open up again, I can come to Hong Kong and practice my Cantonese. 😊

Hello, i just found this channel and this was the first video i watched from you yesterday. I am actually Chinese not half chinese and i was born in Canada. I do not actually know how to speak cantonese because my parents never taught me. But this actually helped so thank you! 😊

Great lessons, thank you very much for making them, I try to learn some Cantonese to impress a female friend from Hong Kong, when we will meet at the first date, and these lessons are very useful.
I am happy that it's useful for you.
@@5minutecantonese Thank you.Your way of explaining is so friendly and innovative, I was so surprised that at the second lesson, my favorite cartoon character had a main role, definetely, I will become a patron. I wish you the best of luck in all your projects, and especially maximum health always, you are great and very beautiful.
Thanks Amanda👍

I'm a fan of Wong Yukhei(Lucas from NCT) who is a hong kong people. Because of him , I start interesting in Cantonese and I'm surfing about this language. This video is so helpful for me from the start. I got motivation to keep learning. Thank you very much.
Welcome to 5 minute Cantonese, i hope my videos help😊
I really wanna get better at cantonese, I'm only good at listening > < I hope I can learn how to read and write, and actually speak it. No one teaches cantonese! Only mandarin :< I'm happy I found your channel, your way of speaking is very clear so it's easier to replicate and understand. My accent sucks;;
I am glad to hear that. 💪🏻
Great. I need a teacher who can help me speak better! These videos are very useful.
Thank you very much for your comment 😀 Keep watching

Thanks from a french girl living in Tokyo trying to learn Cantonese. Thank you!!
Welcome to my channel and most importantly! Happy learning 😊
You’re French with a Portuguese name and you’re also a Cantonese learner living in Tokyo.
Ms. Worldwide 🌎
@@namae8 yeah, i'm mixed with brazilian and i got the mext scholarship to study in japan, but i like cantonese more than japanese haha.
@@Mariana-kj2ub Thats actually pretty cool. I am American but half British. Basically there’s a bunch of English speakers in my family. Super vanilla and boring, but Japanese engaged me into learning other languages. Je peux parler le français un peu et eu aprendi português há 2 anos, but Cantonese is my new passion haha. I’ve always wanted to learn a Chinese language. I tried Mandarin for a while before realising that it’s not really as common in America, at least where I live. Cantonese is really where it’s at, especially in Chinatowns. Plus there’s a lot of similarities with Japanese in vocabulary tbh. けっこうね tho! It’s really cool to meet someone else who’s genuinely interested in a language that’s often looked over. :)
祝你教师节快乐！！！
謝謝😊
done 01..next...thanks for the video..
