I've always wondered how my Cantonese (as an overseas Chinese girl) compares with that of a native Hong Konger. That's why I enlisted my friend Kahei of Poetic Cantonese to give me the ULTIMATE CANTONESE TEST!! Can you beat my score? Let me know in the comments!

Hahaha I watched the whole thing! First, the editing is top class! Fun and fast-paced!
Also much respect for posting even for the parts that you may feel you were struggling. Love how you use what you know to convey your message. Amazing job!
I really enjoyed brainstorming and setting up the questions really. I haven't taught many students who are of intermediate-advanced level, so I learned something new too!
I think the "ultimate test" would be us doing some activities/games in full Cantonese ^.^
I agree. The editing is excellent! At first I thought it was too fast, that it didnt give the viewer enough time to guess as well. But better that way than too slow.
I find the dude's Canto accent speaking English to be strangely sexy. He has a low calm tone not very typical to what I'm used to hearing in Chinese accents. Basically I'm jealous of his accent.
Good stuff for us ABC viewers.
Very good video and the edit is really nice and viewer-friendly. Really learning a lot.
this was so fun to watch! you did so well brittany!
I really liked this type of video; hope to see more of these!
I love this! It's so honest. I've been going to the Chinese Corner at the library the past few weeks to keep up my Cantonese with the volunteers and this is exactly what it reminds me of. They are so nice and say my Canto is good but I feel like my brain is a sieve that just keeps forgetting things lol. The way you were like "yes I now remember the word for 'social media' and then partway through it totally slips your mind" is so relatable. tbf whenever my family members talk they pepper in English anyway so to force into Canto-only mode feels like really hard!
You did a great job, Brittany! Big fan of Kahei’s podcast too
how do you do to have emote like that in your comment and username ?!
I absolutely loved this video! I'm a CBC so I appreciate the new words and challenges in this quiz :) Would love to see more!
Thank you 🙏
This is BRUTAL! I would kill to be able to say the things she says in the end, about the positive and negative aspects of things.
I love these colab videos! Kahei is so patient and gentle, and you're so energetic and willing to learn!
Nice combo guys! Great idea!
That first video one I barely understood anything. I did catch the depression part since I heard it for work haha Answering about social media would be difficult to phrase for sure. Good job! A lot of terms I haven’t heard before. I knew the cheating terms though 😂😂😂
This was interesting. Your canto sounds way more fluent than mine (I am a british-born chinese and consider myself to be only semi-fluent in canto). I can carry on basic conversations and can read only a little traditional chinese, but lack a lot of vocab and grammar skills. Funnily enough, I recognised way more phrases (both colloquial and formal), most likely due to my exposure to TVB when I was growing up, and I was able to read most of the words here, but overall, I still did worse and I definitely would've failed the last few questions that involved actually giving in-depth answers in canto XD
After watching the video, I'm about the same level as you. I have also learned some new things from this video. I am also trying to improve my Cantonese.
Yeah, the two news casts videos were pretty tough. The anchors were speaking so much and so fast with so much information and vocabulary. Had to really pay attention to get all of it. Yeah, I grew up in HK and lived there until 12 years old, and even I had trouble understanding all of that.
trying to remember all the cantonese measure words is just insane.
Great stuff
This girl is cute. I like her enthusiasm.
11:26 should be 接單 (take order), not 接班 (take over the shift) :)
That’s not good morning, that’s breakfast!
早餐 how many points for finding errors? 🤣
6:13 You said "Good Morning" But the characters mean "Breakfast". The first character "Joe" means morning. Second character means "Meal". Together "Morning Meal". In English, breakfast.
I love Kahei
your user name is K H...sus >_>
just kidding haha Kahei is great!
@@cantobritt That’s a legit suspicion LOL😂😂 btw your videos are fantastic! Thank you for making so many learning materials for us!
I love you back
6:14 isn't that 'breakfast' instead of 'good morning'?
Yes, was just going to post that too
Typo on my part post-edit :)
at @6:13 it should be 早晨 not 早餐
lol your reading is clearly better than my proof reading
Yeah I thought so as well. 早餐 is breakfast.
"Two Five boy" means a "Snitch" or a "Rat" in a gang.
I thought that you have heard 二五仔 from HK movie... haha
"道"路... but 一"度"門
一齣戲
Hey, you have gotten the rationale of Chinese character and could soon pick up once you read more….
Brittany’s cantonese is super limited lol 😂
