    0:00 1. Preview
    0:13 2. Introduction (“dim2”)
    0:42 3. How
    2:30 4. “dim2 aa3” in different scenarios

    5:09 6. Summary
    5:16 7. Mini test
    5:31 8. Recommendation
    P.S. If you check the dictionary, the Jyutping of "到" (dou) is at its 3rd tone, but it can be "dou2" in some scenarios (especially in spoken form), including the example of the first question in the mini test. The "到" in the phrase "揾到" should be (dou2) in this case.
    (Jyutping is used for the Cantonese pronunciation in this video.)
    (Tones were demonstrated by hand gestures.)

    While I was watching the video, I realized that the particle 呀 is used a lot in cantonese.
