Only my great grandma enjoyed teochew opera - phek jie khek. Though i am an overseas teochewnese, no matter how hard i tried, i could not understand the language at all in the teochew opera. As for the language teochew, i got no problem. I could understand it.
When your standard in Teochew improves, you can understand Teochew opera. Teochew opera uses formal Teochew and it is better to watch videos with subtitles until your vocabulary reaches such a degree that you can understand without subtitles. I imagine you can read and write in Teochew.
@@zhangruyi3153 thanks.... noted. I tried tuning in to handphobe apps, radio china with station from shantou - Swa Tau... there are 3 exactly, one always play teochew opera. However, i always gave up after several minutes, very difficult to understand. However on the other 2 channels when the host speaks teochew, i could understand most of the conversation....
@@Cys62 I am English educated and living in London and I learn Teochew a few years ago. All I can say is to expose yourself to as much Teochew media as possible.
