I am surprised of seeing cantonese being one of your collections here because cantonese is not a popular language for foreigners. This language is one of the hardest languages to learn so I really appreciate those who are trying to learn it. I hope this language can be spread over the world :)
As a Cantonese speaker, I would say... please watch STEPHEN CHOW'S MOVIES instead. hahaha, thank you so much for making this video! So happy to know 263 people who wanted to learn our language.
This is such a good primer for me. Cantonese was my first language. But from lack of use I have forgotten it for 40 -50 years. Everything is coming back with your primer. Thank you so much!
冇忙乜嘢(不是夜）呀（ 不是啊)。 你識唔識講德文？vs 你識唔識講德文呀？ Putting the word 呀 in the question makes it sound more natural and polite. ******** Some of the sentences are kind of unnatural, but this video is quite educational for many. Keep up the good work.
Been hoping for a while that a Cantonese video would come out, hallelujah. I've loved using your other videos as independent study whilst working and on the go. Well done for producing very useful good quality resources for us!
i couldn't sleep when i started listening , it's a video for sleeping and the first thing he says is ''good morning'' well ... after that i was awake for hours
My husband is Cantonese. 🙈 we communicate in English but I definitely want to learn his language so I can talk to his family members. (My mother in law only speaks Cantonese) 😅
Finally I was trying to find a Cantonese version of these kinds of video and you have granted my wish thank you so much I just wanted to improve my Cantonese
really happy to see Cantonese finally added to your list of languages on your channel. Any chance of having Hokkien (闽南话/福建话/台语) added to your collection anytime in the near future?
Malaysian here ✌🏻 can speak Mandarin & Hokkien, also can listen to 70%-80% of Cantonese, but can only speak a little of Cantonese only because I’m always confused with Hokkien & Cantonese 😂 舌頭打結 hope my Cantonese will improve ☺️✌🏻
Thank you for this. Very useful! One feedback might be make the English voice slightly lower volume. I found that the English felt loud enough to be disruptive and the cantonese volume to be low enough to make it hard to hear. This forced me to increase volume and then English was too loud and hard to sleep.
Jn Vc my whole family and relatives are Cantonese but me and my two bothers still speak Cantonese after 13 to 15 years 😂. When we came to America, I learn English in 1 - 2 years which was easy because of Spanish... damn.... it’s hard to learn Chinese ;-;
My ex was a Canto speaker, and I actually picked up a few words and phrases quite easily. But I also speak Mandarin and Taiwanese, so I already have a leg up.
@@dumalun8388 Yes, all three are quite similar--if you're familiar with European languages, I would say they are about as similar as French, Spanish, and Italian are. I would say Cantonese and Taiwanese are more similar to each other though, than either one are to Mandarin.
Cantonese in Hong Kong is dominant or predominant. I always say that it is the most Supreme language for the fear that I may upset the Hong Kong people. Hong Kong is the only former British colony that doesn't speak English. So we can see how important and held in high esteem English is in HongKong.
Dear Eko Languages, is there any chance you can split the 8 hour videos into like eight pieces so that we can download and study Cantonese hard? Just asking.
No wonder, I can't Sleep. Because I Cantonese. So tell Alan Walker to : Sing me to sleep now Sing me to sleep Oh, won't you sing me to sleep now? Sing me to sleep...
If you don't know the language you're fucked with this. Cantonese is my mother tongue but my command of it fades more and more with age as I was born in Canada. The yes was funny and adding the numbers is kinda new to me to see. Also I must speak a simpler version of cantonese or its my own made up cantonese. Most of these phrases I can say it 2 or 3 syllabuls
You can use other ways to do that, couple of websites allows you to download the video or mp3 for free, also, there is a way to do it on your phone even
The problem with Cantonese is that you can not write down words or phrases because pinyin does not apply to Cantonese. How do you remember what you have learned?
I was wondering if anyone knows how different Taiwanese Mandarin is from both Cantonese and "Common" Mandarin. I was told by my Professor that it is a child of the Fujianese dialect. Cantonese vaguely reminds me of my friend speaking tagalog sometimes btw. Any thoughts on that?
Anyone else experiencing commercial interruptions? Kinda hard to stay asleep when the language-instruction video is interrupted every so often by loud ads.
@@nabi7055 I am trying to learn but unless I have someone to speak to, someone who understands the language I'll never know if I speak it correctly. In another month I will be going to China to meet a friend and she says she will help me learn. She doesn't speak much English.

ANGUSSSI I try to learn it 😹 I really like Cantonese, I hope I will go to HKG one day and can speak it good 😺
I mean, it isnt hard when its your MAIN language it is mine and to me its very easy, but with Mandarin it is hard for me to learn it
It's easier than mandarin because it doesn't require a lot of pronouncing it correctly.
@@jcn268 it is easier to pronounce?
@Chan 160138 I saw a video from Hong Kong culture food. It seemed amazing. What aspect of this language is the hardest. I am a begginer
As a Cantonese speaker, I would say... please watch STEPHEN CHOW'S MOVIES instead.

My favorite movies, just bought 50 pack dvd and most of them don't have english subtitles. Love from finland
Stephen Chow movies are the reason why I wanna learn Cantonese!
I want to learn cantonese because I'm thinking about to work or study in HK or Guangdong, I speak some mandarin
Film title?
Love his movies, my in laws love to tease me for enjoying his movies.
This is such a good primer for me. Cantonese was my first language. But from lack of use I have forgotten it for 40 -50 years. Everything is coming back with your primer. Thank you so much!
*Learn Cantonese While You Sleep*

At least you'll know what to say once you wake up

Putting the word 呀 in the question makes it sound more natural and polite.

Keep up the good work.

Great thank you but please slow it down a bit
🇨🇦 Very good, I love it all the sentences and words are on daily use if you remember them all 👍👍👍
I found this channel this morning and thank you for this lesson
Finally.. Since I live in HK now I know what they say... Kinda weird that I woke up saying Cantonese and Mandarin..
really happy to see Cantonese finally added to your list of languages on your channel.
Any chance of having Hokkien (闽南话/福建话/台语) added to your collection anytime in the near future?
I am also looking forward to those languages.
Do u speak the Chinese dialect of lung du it's almost a dead language now
Yes!
I'm Hokkien and I love my hometown. I'm sooooo excited that the winter break is coming so that I can go back soon.
That dialect is so minor, that would be like asking for Toisan (which I would like as well)
Thank you for the video🎉
Malaysian here ✌🏻
can speak Mandarin & Hokkien,
also can listen to 70%-80% of Cantonese, but can only speak a little of Cantonese only because I’m always confused with Hokkien & Cantonese 😂 舌頭打結
hope my Cantonese will improve ☺️✌🏻
im Cantonese's i know some words but iv'e been away from my family who does speak Cantonese so uh yeah i sorta forgot thanks for helping me
Thank you for this. Very useful! One feedback might be make the English voice slightly lower volume.

This forced me to increase volume and then English was too loud and hard to sleep.
Thanks for the advice. I work on that for future videos. :)
"We all speak our native language with ease" -- simply is not true
Gonna repeat this for one year bc im a Noob at Cantonese.
sure... i'm a pro
just kidding i'm a noob too...
I think I’m a noob Too, I had watched for a whole week and I have only gotten sleep but no Cantonese speech yet But I can rite like a pro
Would you do simple conversations
using these phrases in different stories? This will be helpful in understanding and speaking the language. Thanks.
The only way to learn cantonese is to have relationship with cantonese
And I'm still struggling haha
So much truth in your statement. I struggle though, so I do extra things like watching these videos when he's not around. ;)
The main reason is that Cantonese is a spoken (vernacular) language which cannot be written properly with Chinese characters.
Jn Vc my whole family and relatives are Cantonese but me and my two bothers still speak Cantonese after 13 to 15 years 😂. When we came to America, I learn English in 1 - 2 years which was easy because of Spanish... damn.... it’s hard to learn Chinese ;-;
Learn to speak only,not to write.
I'm find some fun to learn Cantonese language in every night. I will keep going with this language until I can communicate with Hongkong citizen =))
I live in Hong Kong but i can say u explained good
My ex was a Canto speaker, and I actually picked up a few words and phrases quite easily. But I also speak Mandarin and Taiwanese, so I already have a leg up.
Are they similar?

I learned Mandarin and am now starting Cantonese. IMO, Cantonese is much cooler.

I listen to cantonese wuxia stories while sleeping.I never get to sleep because all these action keep me awake all the time !
Love this so far! Thanks for making a Cantonese one!!

Love Hongkong TVB and Cantonese song 1990!
Ngu ngon in Vietnamese is Good Night and it pronuonced the same. 😁
I speak both Cantonese and Vietnamese fluently, the Vietnamese language was derived from Chinese, therefore, they sound somewhat similar.
Yup. Mình biết. My grandparents are Chinese but I was born in Vietnam and they passed away too early so I never get to learn Cantonese.
Thank you!its a big help for me.👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you 😊 💓
Dear Eko Languages, is there any chance you can split the 8 hour videos into like eight pieces so that we can download and study Cantonese hard? Just asking.
Good material, thanks for preparation.
they want to exterminate this language....keep it up...the best language on earth
Bold of you to assume I sleep 8 hours
非常好謝謝老師
good job EKO you doing a great job can you create a Burmese video it doesn't exist my friend speaks Burmese I really want to learn
i want to learn also..new friend here

Very useful video .
我爱廣東話！

Mandarin is not easy
漢語很困難啊😯
但是，漢語比粵語更容易 哈哈😄
哈哈哈， 我同意了
Highly appreciated EKO Language, Many thanks. Exited to learn Cantonese. \m/. ;)
this is really helpful, thank you!
This video is perfect! thank you
The real question is people who tried, it
.. Does it work?
唔錯
Is there a list of these words both english and cantonese? the video is pretty long and a list would be nice
hope i can learn 🙏
Can you please make a Spotify playlist?
You know what would be cool? A
Burmese video.
早晨 / 早安

6:00 個係對唔對呀？
聽起來唔錯喎
Please upload more Cantonese video
*Reads the title*

*GOOD MORNING*
多謝晒
早上好!
No wonder, I can't Sleep. Because I Cantonese. So tell Alan Walker to : Sing me to sleep now Sing me to sleep
Oh, won't you sing me to sleep now?
Sing me to sleep...
If you don't know the language you're fucked with this. Cantonese is my mother tongue but my command of it fades more and more with age as I was born in Canada. The yes was funny and adding the numbers is kinda new to me to see. Also I must speak a simpler version of cantonese or its my own made up cantonese. Most of these phrases I can say it 2 or 3 syllabuls
Thank you, Evan!
terima kasih,sangat membantu./\
Iam still learn :)
LOVING YOUR CHANNEL!!!!!!!!!
Are you learning Cantonese?
I'm interested in doing so, but i'm facing Deustch right now ^.^
Cool. Best of luck to you. :)
唔該曬內
I wish i can learn this coz im here in HK now
hey, me too
Did this eventually help?
Dear Eko Language. Can you divide this video into many pieces so that I can download and also rip the audio for my iPod?
You can use other ways to do that, couple of websites allows you to download the video or mp3 for free, also, there is a way to do it on your phone even
Thannks
Simpel dan membantu
I want to practice speaking English every day, so I'd like to find a native speaker who really wants to help me make a friend... Who wants to help me?
You can find a bunch of them on italki
You speak Cantonese?
Ghost Martinez hi
Ghost Martinez no, I speak Indian languages
The problem with Cantonese is that you can not write down words or phrases because pinyin does not apply to Cantonese. How do you remember what you have learned?

So I do not need to learn the Fzuzounese dialect if I know this?
I come from Hong Kong Kowloon moter bus
Cantonese makes mandarin feel like a walk in the park 😆
Wow..thanks....it really helps me
I feel like you're deliberately tempting me :D
Dont worry eventually Im going to run out of languages.
Anyone else experiencing commercial interruptions? Kinda hard to stay asleep when the language-instruction video is interrupted every so often by loud ads.
Use youtube premium. No adds

I want to learned sir plz teach me plz
I wish to learn but I would also like to know what the numbers following each word are for???
The number are tones. Cantonese is a tonal language like Mandarin, yet Cantonese has more tones.
@@littlepanda1027 Thank you, I know it's a tonal language and that's sort of what I was thinking but I wasn't sure.
Richard Schneider there are 9 tones

I love it!
I have listened to the whole thing three times I am bored out of my mind
How can I learn the characters while sleeping?
Just turn on vdeo put on headphon than listen wd close eyes
