Hi guys, with the word gong2 = say/speak , to me it sounds like a K as in kong when you pronounce it. So is it a g/gr or k ? Tia

hi olivia . do you have any video where you explain about the number next to each word you write thank you .
The numbers behind the romanization are tones, since the same pronunciation in different tones have different meanings, that's an essential part of Cantonese language. :) To learn more about Cantonese tones, check out www.cantoneseclass101.com/2015/11/06/ultimate-cantonese-pronunciation-guide-8-cantonese-tones/
Yeah i agree
唸讀粵語部分可以一次重複唸兩次嗎?這樣比較方便初學者跟著學與發音。
tks your videos, so helpful for me :)
Glad to hear that! Thanks for your kind comment! :)
I love this ! Can u teach expressions you can say to a baby? (Ie. "Don't cry", " do you want your bottle?", etc.")
more than useful Học in VN also has the same meaning.
Great to know that! So you can easily master the Cantonese tones! :)
Keep up the good work! And feel free to ask if you have any questions!
Cảm ơn!

Olivia: 冇 (mou5) is the opposite of 有 (jau5)
Me: DUH!!! You can tell by the characters!
Hey, I'm an AMERICAN BORN CHINESE. I can speak pretty well, but I don't sound natural and don't understand how the fluent speakers have those sounds after they say a word....For example, they end a sentence with aaa
+Hoop Visions Those are called final particles, and even I think that they are difficult to master. Check out more details at www.cantonese.sheik.co.uk/essays/cantonese_particles.htm
Hoop Visions me tooooo A-B-C squadddd
May I need any of your help? I am working on the comic dialogues to make them sound more Cantonese. I am recently learning the basics. Can you type Cantonese Chinese text to translate: 'Thank you for saving (rescuing) me, how should I repay you?' and 'Use my cell phone! See if you can type for me?' Also I wonder if Cantonese text include 啊 like shouting AH! (AAHH!!!).
Yes we use words like 啊 for shouting AAHH!!!
Regarding the translation, it's one of the benefits for our Premium Plus members, so check it out! :)
Hi, thanks for the great video! :) I have a question though. Why do you add 'aa' at the end of 'ngo zung ji nei aa'?
the 'aa' is one of the Cantonese final particles. In English we would modify the mood or meaning of a sentence by saying it in a different tone. But since Cantonese is a tonal language, where changing the tone may actually change a word's meaning, there is much less flexibility to do so. So we have the sentence final particles to help modifying the mood or sometimes even the meaning of a sentence. The 呀 (aa3) you mentioned, is used to soften the tone of the question so it doesn't sound as abrupt.
我有一個問題。I notice you pronounce '問' with a clear 'a', so m-an, but when I am in Hong Kong, I often hear my friends say it with an weak 'a', more like 'mu-n'. Is that just an accent thing? Or is it that I am mishearing my friends when they speak more quickly?
Thanks / 多謝。
Thank you for your question! I have never heard a variation of the word 問 (man6), even for people with "lazy tongue" this word shouldn't sound different.
多謝。I guess it is just that I misheard them. :)
Please teach how to order mac donalds, thank you🙂
I noticed that "jau5" (to have) and "mou5" (to not have) are different words, but "hai6" (to be) and "m4 hai6" (to not be) are not. Could one say "m4 jau5" for (to not have), or is it just one of those quirky language things?
Good question! For most verbs, you can add "m4" in front to make it negative, but "jau5" (to have) is an exception. We cannot say "m4 jau5", just "mou5" for 'to not have'.
What's the verb to 'sing' in cantoness
"To sing" in Cantonese is coeng3.
For example, coeng3 go1 "to sing a song"; coeng3 k "to sing karaoke"
Feel free to ask if you have any other questions.

Seriously, I think Cantonese is more challenging compare to Mandarin. Besides that, Cantonese has six tones while Mandarin only has four tones. But I prefer Cantonese slang ,actually. At my school I take Mandarin.
That's right! Most Cantonese learners find it more fun to learn Cantonese, and the slangs are very interesting! We have a new slang series on our site that started at the beginning of July, check it out when you have time! :)

Importance of tones are slightly exaggerated, especially for beginners. Even if you don't speak perfect tones people can understand you.
Are these verbs used a lot in everyday conversations?
May I know why always have a ngoi in the first sentence?
ngo5 means "I" or "me" in Cantonese. So that's the subject of the sample sentences :)
Feel free to ask if you have any other questions.

is it yam or jam? pls help
+Ruo Xuan In the Jyutping romanization system, 'j' sounds like 'y' in English. So even thought the sound is pronounced like "yam", in Jyutping it's "jam". ^^"
It sounds like you barely pronounce Ngo5 sometimes. Like in the sentence Ngo5 zau2 laa3, bai1 baa3 at 4:34 - Is this something that happens in the language do you just hint at the word?
Good catch, it's a very subtle sound, coming from the back of throat.
In this video, I cant hear the difference between sik6 and sik1.... They both sound the same to me.
i didnt hear sik6 in the video from memory but i think sik1 is meant to be a higher pitched inflection throughout?
sik1 is a high flat tone, it actually sounds like when you say "sick" English (without an aspirated K at the end); while the 6th tone is lower, a bit like the "sic" in "basic" (again, without the aspirated K at the end)
I think 知道 (cidau) in Cantonese is just 知 (ci).
+Erdyanto Dwi Nugroho (鄭飛龍) Thanks for the comment! Yes, both 知道 (zi1 dou6) and 知 (zi1) are use, while the latter one is more colloquial and casual.
ngo sik teng gong dong wa. what does this mean.
This means "I understand Cantonese."
You spell it nei5 but some chinese spells lei
+Shan Raidel That's the "lazy tongue" pronunciation often found in the younger generations. While the proper pronunciation is nei5, some people with the "lazy-sound" would say lei5.
Who thinks that she low-key looks like blackpink Jennie 😆😆
Lol I'll take it as a compliment 😂
