    I’m an ABC/K who is very grateful to be able to speak all my mother tongues (Canto, Mando, and Korean) fluently. I think sometimes I do (subconsciously) take it for granted but I’m reminded every time I hear another ABC struggle to speak. I’m definitely proud of our heritage and I encourage ABCs to speak more Chinese. You’ll see that everyone around us just respects us so much more for the effort we make. 😊

    Being an ABC too this is so relatable 3:43, cough cough Australian born Chinese. So amusing to watch, I’m always watching some Canto YT vids to improve, you guys definitely helped 😉

    One tip I found improving Cantonese is if you have some relations with family members over WhatsApp. Force yourself only using audio messaging and send the messages only when you get it grammatically correct and over time I think you'll improve and naturally try speak it more to native speakers in daily life..

    Awesome to see ABC communicating. I am ABC from Australia with sui sui sik gong gwong tung wah. That's practically what I answer to any Canto's speaking to me. Keep the dream alive!!!

    As a Hongkonger, I think you speak Cantonese really well!! However, there is no such thing as Primary 7 (七年班) in Hong Kong, we normally say it as Form 1 (中一). I hope it helps!!!! :)

    I can tell it was so hard for both of you speak Cantonese. You don’t speak Cantonese at home when you talk to your parents. The more you speak, the more fluent you can get.
