The closest English equivalent is "stuff" or "something."
'je' is more than that because it can also refer to a person in a certain situation which 'stuff' and 'something' cannot.
Fun fact: HO+JE (hoje) means "today" in brazilian portuguese 😁
Fun fact : you read this in your heart
How do you write it?
Love these videooosss 😩😩
Yes
I have been watching this everyday, but I still cant speak Cantonese
One day..
I live in Hong Kong, and my Cantonese is as bad at yours. I only know how to say, but not read or write.
Tlimehh agreed.
@@mistysudios9855 i doubt that you will need to know how to write or read, hongkong probably write everything in english for their business related job

LOVE HONGKONG..❤❤❤
What is the difference between Mandarin and Cantonese. Pls🙏
Cantonese if im not wrong is a dialect of mandarin.
Mandarin is what chinese calls putonghua (also called huayu in malaysia), the main language to converse among chinese more officially.
Cantonese is now a dialect mainly spoken in certain districts, especially popular with people of cantonese ancestry. Like Stephen Chow speaks Cantonese, see his movie Kung Fu Hustle in original voice.
They sound different to my ears. I think you might have to listen more to differentiate.
Cantonese a dialect originated from Guangzhou mostly spoken in Hong Kong, Malaysia Singapore. Mandarin a common language use in mainland China.
@@jrdk9276 Sorry but you're totally wrong. Cantonese has a history of 2000-3000 years while Mandarin only has about 400-500 years. So how can Cantonese be a dialect of Mandarin???
@@mrtsiqsin2290 ah yes i must have gotten my info mixed up. Thanks for clarifying.

加油
The writing system is basically the same. You can speak mandarin in Guangdong(Canton). Learning Cantonese is not that important unless you need to live in Hong Kong.
Watch this video a few time u will get it down thank u for this
i think its " 野 "
Yes, but usually it's written with a mouth as '嘢'

LOLOL
Can u start looking into the camera? If u r reading off teleprompter, why it is so far away from the camera lens
There a reason why people stand at an angle, its the same as taking a photo, you tilt you face cause one side is better.
she has a full round face, if she looks direct, due to natures of camera..it tends shows bad skins or expose perceived flaws.
@@mizzypoo4827 im not talking about her face direction, im talking about her eyes... Notice her eyes are looking at somewhere else and not at the camera...
Obviously she has to look at the cue cards from time to time. Don't expect her to recite all the contents!
Almost first
So basically you only need ONE word to be able to speak Cantonese : "Yeh, yeh yeh yeh yeh , yeh yeh Yeeeeeeehhh ?"
Remember "Yeh can be anything or everything"😉😁
Now what A.I is this??
Very soon to blend in and sound like a local you'll have to speak Mandarin. Same in Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang.. just saying.
Fake is: Ga je.
