    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.

    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 :)

    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.

    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.

    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
