Thank you for your comment~ I am aware that the pronunciation for 國 [gwok3] is is with the 'w'. As a Cantonese teacher, I also make sure that my students are aware of this original pronunciation. My pronunciation sounds closer to 'gok3' than 'gwok3' because I only lightly touch on the 'w' sound, making it very subtle. With modern-day Cantonese, especially in places like Hong Kong, the 'gw-' initial sound has become less prominent and critical, and my students sometimes struggle with the 'gw-' sound. As a teacher, I want my students to enjoy the process of learning Cantonese and develop natural speaking skills, so I tend to stress less on the original pronunciation if students find it too difficult 😊

@@christyip6917 I have changed that in my later videos, opting to pronounce it according to the Jyutping (the original way) so as to avoid confusion. Thank you for your feedback.

全世界有一億人講粵語(廣東話)💪💪💪。
粵語係好包容嘅🌈! 不管懶音、鄉音、香港音(帶外語)等等都各有特色,總言之,溝通到就 number one👍!
正字正音是大學課程,留給學者們去研究吧。🤔
粵語是我認識的語言中最有感情和美妙的😊!最能代表人類語言的最高境界☀️! 如果能用粵語朗誦 中華文化中的詩、詞等文學,你就會明白何謂 人類語言的 "最高境界"☀️!
所以一定要推廣粵語,讓粵語發揚光大☀️!
廣東話,誇啦啦!
Very well said!
