    as a person who knows the smallest amount of cantonese (from HK) this was pretty interesting to watch, figuring out a few words 😂

    As someone who learned Cantonese second hand from my parents, I'm really happy i managed to remember immature. I guessed it right almost immediately

    For the last word 公焦 it comes from the Hokkien/Teochew word 弓焦 which is pronounced Geng Jio.
    It's interesting to see how Malaysia mixes its Cantonese so much. My family speaks Cantonese, Teochew, and Hakka. We're from Indonesia but we don't mix and mash our Chinese as much.

      Saiful Pulau besar Me? Jakarta. Obviously though, my family isn’t originally from Jakarta. My grandparents and parents are from all over like North Sumatra, West Kalimantan, Bangka-Belitung, and North Sulawesi.

    I was born in Hong Kong (香港) / (我係香港出世), but some words in Cantonese ( 廣東話 / 粵語) was changed (但係壹啲字改變咗) ... when my aunties and uncles speak (如果我姨媽,阿媽,等等同埋舅父阿叔), I can understand (我識聽), but when 表妹,表哥,and the younger generation speaks Cantonese ( 廣東話 / 粵語) , it is hard to understand (好難聽), because I was grown up in West-Berlin / Germany (因爲我喺德國西柏林長大。) ...

    公蕉 I am guessing is from Hokkien “keng chio”, which is 弓蕉 because of the shape.

    2:36 Where I'm from, we say "一 P" in Cantonese (meaning 一件"), but I am not sure if 一 P comes from English "one piece".

    For the currency, i don't really say 'kao' unless there are cents in it. If RM2 i will say 'Leung Man', if RM2.20 then i will say 'Leung Kao Yi'. Maybe just from Ipoh, because i know people in KL didn't say 'man'.

    Actually if you go KL, the cantonese has evolved too. More people say "yat man" instead of "yat kau" now. Also, "gao bai" replaced with "zi qin" or "seung qi" etc

    1:05- This must be a term that's only recently becoming popular in the past 3-4 years. For decades we always call TVB "無線" and TVB dramas "無線電視劇", "無線劇",or simply "港劇"。Now the vast majority of Hongkongers call TVB the CCTVB.

    I wonder how a malaysian can speak cantonese very well. Do malaysians learn cantonese?

    • @TheForkingTomatoes
      @TheForkingTomatoes  5 років тому +5

      There are a couple of reasons for this!
      1. If they have Cantonese ancestry, they tend to speak Cantonese in their family
      2. Some cities in Malaysia have more Cantonese (while some other has more Hokkien or Hakka or Teochew...) and thus, the others pick up Cantonese more easily
      3. We watch a lot, A LOT of TVB dramas. They were super popular in Malaysia (not sure about now...) so many pick up the language from watching
      Thanks for watching! :)

      Yes we Malaysian Chinese usually pick up Chinese dialects from our mothers (that's how mother tongue came about) or fathers (besides inheriting our father's family name.) For instance if a Hokkien marries a Cantonese, the child might learn both Hokkien & Cantonese. In Malaysia (as in Mainland China), if a particular dialect is very predominantly spoken in a town (like Hokkien in Penang back in 60's) you might find that every one in the town speaks or knows how to speak that dialect too. Until today, there are still towns where there are people of a particular dialect staying there (like Fukien in Setiawan near Perak or in Sarawak, East Malaysia.

    Pai is a Hokkien word. Those pure Cantonese don't use Pai but Chi. Don't speak lousy Cantonese and claim them as Malaysian Cantonese in your UA-cam, not all Malaysians speak like that, only those Hokkien people in Malaysia speak lousy Cantonese.

      Agree. I'm a Malaysian Toisanese, so my language has alot similarities with Cantonese and I never heard a word like Gong Jiu. It's either Jiu or Heung Jiu. I also never use gao pai. It's yi chin not gao pai.

      Actually, could it be a mix of two terms that already exist?
      有排搞 = it's going to take a while(yau paai gaau)
      前一排 = a while ago(chin yat paai)
      舊時 = a long time ago(gau si)
      舊排 = a mix of the top two?(gau paai)

      @@R4wrn3ess after you mentioned, kinda true also. Probably the language has been mixed. Like HK or Macao Cantonese little bit different than Guangdong Cantonese. Malaysian Cantonese also a little different than both of that country.
