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 TH-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.

Thank you very much!

❤. Very poetic to call elderly " old flower". I will be an old flower one day lol

[@5minutecantonese]

Well... you might not become 'old flower' when you get old.🤭
We call the older people who is long sighted "old flowers" as they cannot see clearly. We describe the blurry image as "flowers".
Maybe when you get older, your eye sight is still perfect. 😉

來至香港嘅阿曼達你好 !!! 好開心再次見到你。我認為與人交談時進行眼神交流好重要。當一個好美麗嘅女人用誘人嘅微笑盯著一個男人時，咁就會融化佢虛弱嘅心，消除佢反抗女殺手嘅能力。 當然，只會發生喺電影中。 下次見 ！！！

[@5minutecantonese]

多謝你😁

The eyes are the window to the soul. Just can't take my eyes off your eyes !!! Many hit songs were written about the eyes. My favorites are: Bette Davis Eyes, Eye of the Tiger, Smoke Gets In Your Eyes, Hungry Eyes, Brown Eyed Girl. Remember them? I like to look at beautiful women. Of course, beauty is in the eye of the beholder !!!

C'est une leçon intéressante sur les yeux. La première chose que je regarde une femme, ce sont ses yeux. Si elle est intéressée, elle me répondra avec le sourire !!!

[@5minutecantonese]

Thank you!

[@OffeJ83]

interesting that "lie" is 大話 we call them "tall tales" sometimes.

[@5minutecantonese]

Wow... That's very advanced. Normally we use that for "Journey to the west"!

[@Kaflé77]

Cantonese so hard :(

[@jaycee5676]

That's awesome, Amanda!! 👏👏👏Would you use 'Lou5 Faa1' when talking to the older generation and they do that?

[@5minutecantonese]

Yes! you can use that

[@tutoroo3257]

Do you know TUTOROO? We’re actively looking for Cantonese teachers.

[@dianayeung7096]

Indeed very useful phrases, thank you for your another great lesson. 💝💝💝

[@5minutecantonese]

You are most welcome 😀

成日
Isn't that Sing/seng jat? I thought it might be some dialect thing sang/saang but it sounds like you're saying it sing/seng.

[@5minutecantonese]

Yes... You are right! I am going to amend this in the subtitle. Thank you very much!

[@at7330]

Hi why jat not yat?

[@Phil.F.Freeman]

Since lesson 39, Amanda's been using Jyutping consistently, not Yale or other romanization schemes. Hope it helps.

[@5minutecantonese]

Thank you very much for the explanation. 👍🏻
