- Hello everyone, welcome back to my channel!
I was a bit nervous to film this video as I literally haven't spoken Cantonese in SO long, and while I was editing the video, I even noticed so many mistakes that I had made! Learning a new language is hard, eh? I'm sure there are some mistakes that I haven't picked up on, so please help me out by correcting me in the comments below! Also, let me know, are you guys learning any new languages?
Don't forget to like, subscribe, and share this video with your friends!
You can watch Part 2 here: • SPEAKING CANTONESE 2
I am from Hong Kong and your Cantonese is almost perfect!
Ngan Jason That makes me so happy to hear, thank you so much!
@@Guresu Where and how did you learn Cantonese? Your tone is so good that if you speak faster, you will be not much different than a native Cantonese speaker. Oh...just found your other video "
HOW TO LEARN CANTONESE" I was thinking you must have a Cantonese speaking parent of something. You are amazing!
K NG Thank you! I’m going to work on my speed so I can sound even better ^^
I'm from HK too and ur accent sounds just like a native like me
So impressive , your Accent is almost perfect.
Thank you!
That is some amazing pronounciation for 3 years of learning. Always great to hear that there are people out there who are willing to learn Cantonese despite many Chinese people saying it’s a dying language!!!
Your canto is AMAZING! I’m a native Cantonese-speaker in the US and your canto skills are so good and love how confident you are! Keep it up! Hope you’ll keep making more videos!
Daphne Lei Thank you! I will ^^
Wow, your Cantonese is excellent. Your tone is most impressive. That is a lot of hard work and dedication you put into learning a language that is completely different. I came to the US from Hong Kong went I was eight. Most of our relatives spoke Toisanese here. We also use different words and call things differently. Maybe is a regional thing?
Oh wow, before your comment I had never heard of Toisanese. It must be a regional thing, a sort of dialect.
Possibly one of the best Cantonese accents from someone actually learning it that i've seen online! Your accent I feel is very on point compared to say many white speakers and I wonder if it's due to maybe your native accent or maybe you've picked it up super well!!!
Wow you even have the natural "ehh" when you speak lol
Lolll it just comes to me naturally now after hearing it so much, you know!
Your Cantonese is marvellous! As a Canto native speaker, I can't even maintain a conversation as long as this without the help of English terms. Yours is a lot better than mine. We don't even realise we're switching between writing words and speaking words. Thanks for reminding us how beautiful our language is. Well done and ga yau!
Watching your video puts a genuine smile on my face. I was born in Hong Kong but moved to Canada when I was 9 yrs old. (40+ yrs ago) You speak better Cantonese than I do. I can understand you perfectly (without the subtitles). Excellent work and dedication!
Thank you so much!
i am a native cantonese speaker. you as a self learner, i got nothing to pick on you. your tones and vocabs are almost perfect! your cantonese is even better my two daughters, who are native english speakers....keep up your good work! and i can't tell how much i appreciate your efforts in learning and promoting cantonese and keep it alive! THANK YOU!!!!
Thanks for sharing, going to subscribe, Cantonese is such a beautiful language!
Awe, thank you for subscribing! And I agree, Cantonese is such a beautiful language!
One of your video stunning Chinese in Chinatown showed up n I watched at 11:30pm and now few videos later and it’s almost 1am. You are amazing. I’m sorry I didn’t find you earlier and you stopped making videos for a year already 😢. Hope to see you again on a new video
It’s amazing how determined you wanna master a language to a level of details like this much! I think you really wanna speak like a local. I’m so sure u will achieve that very soon! “Add oil” 😄💪🏼
Speaking as a native Canto (HK) speaker, you have definitely found passion in the right language!! Canto may sound a little rough compared to Mandarin but it offers a much wider range in terms of usage, effectiveness to express emotions and simply so much more fun!! I applaud you for promoting this awesome language on your channel!! Means a lot to me!
Your pronunciation sounds perfect, much much better than some Hong Kongers who are new immigrant from mainland China. Cantonese is difficult to learn because it is an ancient language.
Congratulations! I take my hat off to you for 3 years learning! 👌👍❤️
Thank you! 😃
Your channel is so inspiring, should have more people know how amazing you are.
Thank you so much!
your sounds and tones are on point. 100% better than me.
I am happy that you start to learn cantonese again. Recently some Hong Kong forum are sharing your channel and that's how I know your channel.
Impressive 😱😱😱
Thank you!
好勁呀!!!!!!!!! 妳真係講得好好!!!
多謝!
holy cow your cantonese is amazing! i've been trying to learn but i can't even string together a sentence, altho i can actually understand a lot of what you said. guess i need a language partner or something.
Thank you so much! Yes, practice, practice an do some more practice! That's the only way to get good at speaking :)
As a canto speaker i can say your canto is very very good! One the best ways to learn is to watch videos/ shows in the language and I agree, there isn't much on the web in canto vs mando! Awesome to see people picking up canto as most opt for mando and theres less and less of canto :(
Thank you so much! I love Cantonese so much, it's a great language :)
好叻啊! 妳只係學咗3年就講得咁流利, 真係好勁👍 妳嘅咬字同埋發音都幾乎完美, 比起好多外國長大嘅香港人講得更好👍 語速同埋語法都用得好好啊❤️ 多謝妳咁愛廣東話, 希望妳嘅努力可以推動到更多人認識廣東話~^^
BTW, 如果想睇廣東話劇集, 推薦妳睇VIU TV! 千萬唔好睇TVB果啲 LOL
Holy moly only three years and your Canto is spot on, including the tones and nuances and the pauses between words. Impressed!
jordanleno8080 Oh wow, really? Thank you so much!
really impressive. You mastered the tones very well. Good job!
you speak cantonese is ok ,I like it , support !
Very good, keep practicing and your pronunciation will be perfect. You’re probably the best I’ve heard from a foreigner who is not a native speaker.
Eschatonx Oh wow, that’s such a compliment, thank you!
I found you through the Cantonese Couple. You speak Cantonese very well! I believe Mandarin is easier to learn for an English speaking person. Because in the Cantonese language, there is no "rolling" of the tongue. Would you agree? I'm going to binge-watch your videos! Keep up the good work & have a great new year! :)
Yes, I agree! Thank you so much for watching, Helen, I hope you have a great year too!
Your Cantonese is amazing! I've been studying cantonese for over 8 years now and I'm still not good at grammar, speaking, writing etc. The fact that you speak lots of languages and still be able to remember cantonese is very impressive. Keep up the good job 👍🏻
8 years? Wow, that's amazing. Thank you so much!
Your Cantonese is so good and fluent! Keep it up! 💪🏻
Thank you!
Recently I've really been wanting to learn some languages, Cantonese being one of them so I came across your video - your Cantonese is amazing! Keep up the great work and thanks for motivating me to keep at it cause language learning is quite challenging! Cheers! :)
I am HongKonger and your Cantonese is perfect💯
Wow!! You speak Cantonese EXTREMELY WELL!! better than me, keep its up!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
excellent! Great pronunciation and your vocabulary is better than my american born chinese self!
Wow, thank you!
I speak Cantonese and you speak it great! I'm impressed you learned it within 3 years. I'm learning Dutch for my Dutch boyfriend. You motivated me to take out my textbooks to practice!
I'm a native Cantonese speaker and your pronunciation is great! The crazy tones and sounds inherent in our language frequently throws off English speakers and you've nailed them. Awesome, indeed!
Thank you! It definitely took a long time to get this level haha but I still have a long way to go!
Wow she is a genius !
I beg you would come to Hong Kong or China to work after finishing your uni. And love your T shirt too.
hello I am a new fan of you and I am obsessed with your videos!I appreciate you so much!I can see you really hard working on learning languages.I am a 14 teenage girl from Hong Kong💖
Your Cantonese is really good. I know not having people to practice it with can be hard. If you want, maybe we can do a video call together to practice Cantonese? My first language is Cantonese but since I've lived in the UK for so many years, I am not as fluent as I used to be.
This is really, really good. Also really good for people wanting to learn and listen to canto because you speak really clearly and properly enunciate every word, unlike most spoken cantonese lol.
Haha, true, I do speak quite slow since I'm still learning. Thank you for your comment!
I grew up in a Cantonese speaking region, but I barely speaks Canto. You are already so so much better than me!
And please refer to it as 大陆 or 中国大陆instead of just 中国 please!
Thank you so much!
Wow your Cantonese is superb! Your tones are correct. And it's proper Cantonese! I'm amazed!
Fluent and very natural-sounding, as always!
wow! so impressive! I am learning cantonese at the moment and hope will be able to speak like you soon
Thank you, you can do it!
Wowww You really speak very good in cantonese😄😄
Omg I'm so impressed you chose to learn Cantonese!!!! It's so rare, but I appreciate it. Your pronunciation is pretty much perfect! (In fact I've not had to speak it in years I would confidently say your accent is way better than mine ahaha!). I found you through me being curious over the difference of Shanghainese and I found your comparison video and I was impressed you could recognise the dialects so I just had to find your Canto speaking video! It's really good! All the best in continuing to studying both Canto and Mando!
Thank you so much for your lovely comment! ^^
I'm a native Cantonese speaker from Hong Kong. Your Cantonese is so impressive especially your tone. Keep up the good work.
Thank you! Will do!
加油！ gaa1 jau2!
💪🏻
I think your Cantonese is pretty good! I can hear every single word so clearly
I'm a fluent Cantonese and Mandarin speaker. Your Cantonese is very good. I'd give you a 96 out of a 100, an A+. You are doing a very good job.
If you want to say you want to restart your Cantonese studies, you can say ngo5 seong2 hoi1 ci2 FAAN1 hok6 gwong2 dung1 wa2. If you put faan1 after a verb it would indicate that you’re starting to do that action after a while of not doing it.
Thank you so much!
I’m from hk and your canto is sooo good sooo impressive!! 🥰💜
I speak cantonese and I think your cantonese is good (you have a fairly good accent by the way). Of course there’s still a big room for improvement, but I’m sure you’re going to make it.
You are right about the fact that cantonese learning materials are more limited compared to mandarin materials.
Your Cantonese is amazing! I think what makes your Cantonese stand out is how on point your pronunciation is; I find that people tend to focus on vocab over pronunciation, especially for tonal languages like Chinese (probably because tones are hard to get right, and also most native speakers can still understand you with the wrong tones). But I find that if you actually want to sound native, it is very important to be disciplined to force yourself to learn the tones properly from the get-go, otherwise you get used to saying the words with the wrong tones and then you will always have a foreign accent when you speak Chinese.
One thing I noticed is that when you say "I want to learn Chinese again", you usually said 我想再學廣東話. This is grammatically correct, but if you want to sound more natural, a native speaker will usually say 我想再學"返"廣東話. (Sorry I don't know jyutping so I'm just going to guess the sounds haha... basically add "faan" between "hok' and "gwong dong wa").
Thank you so much!
Great job!
Your Cantonese is great! You speak well and know a lot of vocabulary than I do.
Sandy K Thank you!!
Same! Especially with that last sentence of asking the audience to correct any mistakes you may have made. There were 2 phrases you used which just wow’ed me. I had to rewind and repeat them out loud.
I am from Hong Kong and your Cantonese is good. You are a clever girl ❤️❤️❤️
I started learning Cantonese a few weeks ago after studying Mandarin for 7 years. I couldn't understand what you said without the subtitles but I do know you speak very clearly and could hear each word being pronounced.
Good luck with your Cantonese, Yuki!
Wow your Cantonese is soooo good!
I particularly like you distinguish Mandarin 國語 from Putonhua 普通話
I always thought that 國語 and 普通話 were interchangeable for the word Mandarin. Are they?
Guresu Not exactly. 國語 is the language that Taiwan use, while 普通話 is the language that Mainland China use. 國語 sounds softer than 普通話
@@kevinkmhui Nonsense! 國語 and 普通話 mean the same thing and are the same language being Mandarin. Though people in mainland China tend to use the term 普通話 whilst those outside tend to say 國語 but it’s becoming more interchangeable. People in Taiwan just just speak mandarin with a different accent. Even the mandarin spoken in northern, middle or southern China are done so with different accents too.
holy crap! that's very good cantonese! good job!
My mom is from Hong Kong and I speak ALMOST fluent cantonese and I think that your Cantonese is really good! Because mandarin is a more popular dialect in chinese, it’s hard to come across someone who actually knows how to speak Cantonese. You’re doing great 👌🏼
Thank you!
Your Canto is great for only learning it tor a few years! You should be very proud of yourself buddy 💯
Thank you so much!
You are so talented in mastering multi-language 👍🏻
Wow I am from Hong Kong your Cantonese is so wonderful !
your cantonese is awesome! Keep going!!
perfect!!!
I'm also trying to learn Cantonese. Pls make more of these 🙏🙏
Gwyneth Singculan Will do! Thanks for watching!
💞💞
This video was a year ago, you learnt Cantonese for 3 years and have such a level, actually is good already if you just learn Cantonese yourself. I and a native Cantonese speaker, speak Mandarin also.
Hi Grace, don’t be too harsh to yourself. You are very fluent and your pronunciation is better than most Cantonese. You just need to speak more to stay fluent.
Awe, thank you so much Anthony! I used to be quite unconfident with my Cantonese but after reading all these comments, I’m starting to build more confidence. I will continue to 加油！
woah ur cantonese is amazing! i was born in canada but my parents were born in hong kong so i grew up speaking cantonese. i think its a hard language to learn (i wouldnt know cause its my first language) but your cantonese is perfect! my parents definitely wish my chinese was as good as yours haha :)
Awe, thank you so much! I'm sure your Cantonese is much better than mine haha
Your Canto is unbelievably amazing!
Putting me to shame.
I grew up speaking Cantonese because of my mother, but I don't think I am as fluent as I should be.
Aweee thank you, Susan! Maybe try and practice more with your family?
So impressive. 好犀利！！！
I love listening to you speak - your voice is so tim4 (甜) so sweet! - and wow, you speak so many different languages!! I am so impressed and amazed!! (I'm here because I saw you on @cantonesecouple :)
Cantonese Corner Awe, thank you so much! Your videos have definitely helped me a lot :)
Guresu I’m so glad! 🥰 Happy learning!
Hahaha!!! I like your T-shirt " Female are the future " Remember Cantonese is just a dialect despite it is pretty popular in HK, South China, Macau, Vietnam, Singapore & Malaysia and Mandarin is also popular in all those countries or places as well and don't forget Taiwan they speak Mandarin too.
加油，我支持你💪💪💪
Impressive 👌🏾
Your Cantonese is great!! Keep up the good work!
MazQcat Thank you so much!
Wow ... awesome, you grasp the tones so accurately!
The rhythm and the use of words are also stunning!
I'd like to give you a suggestion if you want to sound more like a native speaker.
You can learn more about the final particles.
You've already got some, like the 'la' at the end of your sentences.
There're still so many particles like that.
I know this is going to be much harder than the tones
because not many books would mention this part.
Maybe you can watch some TH-camrs from Hong Kong.
Listen to their conservation.
Pick up the final particles when you can understand most of their sentences.
Some particles have just subtle differences
but they can change the meaning of a whole sentence.
Add oil~~~
Thank you for your comment! Yeah, when I watch HK dramas and stuff, I notice that people use particles quite often but I just don’t really use them because I’m scared that I’ll use them inaccurately. But I’ll try and add them to my sentences and see what happens. Thank you!
I hate it when ppl add it to the end of a sentence in English 🙄
Oml have you ever been to Hong Kong? ur Canto is really good!
👏you speak cantonese really well. You should do more cantonese vlogs😊
Thank you! There are definitely more to come!
