    I am Amanda from Hong Kong. I make easy and practical cantonese learning videos for complete beginners to intermediate level.
    My full time job is a flight attendant. I enjoy studying foreign languages. My job allows me to visit many places and meet many people. So that I have more chances to practice what I have learned.
    Due to the covid, I haven't fly regularly for over a year. I find CZcams is extremely helpful for maintaining my language proficiency. One day, out of curiosity, I looked for cantonese learning channels. I was so surprised that there are so little and most of the good one are even from overseas. That's why I started "5 minute cantonese" on 2020.

    Great lesson Amanda👍
    To be honest, the way you say yui3 is exactly like how we say “ew” in English. This is what you might say if you find a 3 week old, half eaten chicken leg, under a cushion on your settee 🤢
    So it’s easy to remember, the Cantonese means the exact opposite of “I really don’t need this!”

      It's just similar to English. "how much?" and "how much is it?"

    Hi Amanda. Thanks for your lesson. I am confused about how the pronoun "g" in Cantonese seems like "k" in English?

    • @5minutecantonese
      @5minutecantonese  Před 11 měsíci +1

      yes, you are right.
      As jyutping sound different.
      The phonetic sound of g is [k], but it's still with g sound like gaa1 (Family) is similar to the sound as (lady gaga)

      @@KhanhNguyen-vy8zs To be honest I don't know the official explanation to this. 😅 Because jyutping is different from English. Like in English, c and k sound K. sometimes they sound exactly the same. But g and k in cantonese are different. g [k] and k [kʰ]

    幾錢呀 or 幾錢 both means “how much is it?” And “how much?” And another question why we need final particle like 呀, what is 呀 mean?

    • @5minutecantonese
      @5minutecantonese  Před 3 lety +1

      Actually, it's just like a intonation. In English or many other languages, we can change the tone of voice. But Cantonese is a language with tones. We'll still raise a bit of the tone for a question. But sometimes changing the tone will change the whole meaning. That's why we have more intonation words like lei1 la1 aa3... to express our emotions. I hope this can give you a bit of idea.

      @5minutecantonese  Před 3 lety

      This is specially for Chinese language. First of all, to make it simple, Pls refer to lesson 11, a "cup" of coffee, a "glass" of wine....
      In English, only uncountable nouns have measure word. But in cantonese all nouns have a measure word. The most common one is "go3" 個, it's a important grammer in Chinese. Can also check lesson 32 for more usage.
