my wifes and her family speak cantonese and I think its cool Ive been wanting to learn it for awhile I dont know where to start
Your gov did that really?? I love cantonese language man. Love from Malaysia
我地香港人一定會支持你架！！Always support you!
请问，为什么用“地”而不是“的”？
其實本身佢講得啱嘅但係佢係留咗個口喺佢地隔離所以就變咗’我地‘唔係嗰個’吔‘
Thanks for supporting Cantonese! It’s amazing that you speak that well by learning Cantonese yourself. 讚！廣東話加油！💪🏻
Hi Grace, I am a Hongkonger from Hong Kong. I would like to thank you for preserving, supporting and promoting Cantonese. You are just fantastic and wonderful! Keep it up!
Watch your interview in HK Apple Daily! Your Cantonese is so beautiful. I really appreciate how you help preserve Cantonese by making videos to teach people tips to learn Cantonese! Thank you very much!!!!!!
Awesome. You can speak much better Cantonese than Cantonese. Really appreciated. Support from Hongkongers from Hong Kong.
TVB should really hire her as an actress... She would become very popular!
As a Hongkonger, I'm so impressed on your attitude on learning Cantonese. Due to political reasons, the younger generation in Hong Kong speaks less or even doesn't speak Cantonese. There are so many dramas, animation, and Japanese/Korean series with Cantonese dubbing. You will get lots of recommendations if you ask for them.
Really? As a Hongkonger whenever I go out I never hear anyone speak anything but canto…
This seems like a comment made by those Chinese bots ngl
@@konan8353 I am real not a bot
@@jasonwong29 I meant one of those people who are just paid to leave comments but tbh it's almost the same thing
@@PatheticTV Mhm, but newer generations speak English much more
Hi Grace, I am a ten year old Hongkonger who lives in London now. Thank you for supporting Cantonese. Your Cantonese is very fluent. I think you are very talented and there are very few people who can speak Cantonese that doesn't come from Hong Kong. I really want to make friends with you. How can I contact you? 😄
Hello from HK, thanks for supporting Cantonese 🙏🏻🙏🏻
thanks for supporting cantonese mate! as a Hongkonger, i really appreciate that you supporting and promoting cantonese. cheers!
As a HongKonger, I am impressed by your fluently spoken Cantonese. Thanks for your support on promoting Cantonese to others. I wish I will have chance to chat with you in Cantonese🤩 you are such a awesome girl. I just watched your interview, and know that you may want to be a RUclipsr, I wish you all the best on the road to make your dream come true❤️
Love from HK!!! I’m so happy to see a foreigner trying hard to learn Cantonese, and spreading it to the world!! 好感動呀 ❤️ Most people give up and learn Mandarin instead coz Cantonese is harder... I’m glad you did it, and see how unique and fun our language is 🌟
P.S. I actually didn’t know there is peppa pig Cantonese dub until you shared it! haha
as Hongkonger, we also need those books you mentioned. In HK education system, people haven’t been taught Cantonese in systematical way instead of Chinese so you can’t find many resources for leaning this language. Much appreciated that you made this video, please keep your good work 😊😊
有邊個係睇完果籽之後 就過嚟訂閱😛
我，一個外國人都咁有心，要support!
我 做為一個自己學廣東話的台灣人 我覺得她好厲害~~
始終佢有學語言經驗 佢個channel仲有其他語言 上手一定快過你哋

Hi Grace, I'm a Hongkonger, Just wanna let you know you speak Cantonese so good with wonderful pronunciation, much much better than some foreigners where lived in Hong Kong,keep going, good job, we love you🌹🌹
好感動,我哋香港人一定會支持你！👍
As a professional voice actor in Hong Kong, I really feel amazing that you can learn Cantonese by yourself and speak so well! Keep it up Grace!
🥰hello from Macau🇲🇴thanks for supporting cantonese ❤️✨
Hi Grace, I am a Hongkonger, deeply impressed for your effort to learn Cantonese by yourself, though it was hard, but you really did it, and did it very well indeed. Meanwhile, thank you very much for promoting our Cantonese. Add oil, add oil!!!
Hello Grace, you're so amazing! Thank you so much for learning Cantonese and promoting it on RUclips! Cantonese is dying, my kids have to speak either English or Putonghua in school while Cantonese was prohibited. Sometimes my kids don't understand what I'm talking about in Cantonese, I have to translate my meaning in English or Putonghua. The ridiculous situation is we're HongKonger and our mother tongue is Cantonese.
I just speechless and jaw dropping, you can speak Cantonese very well. As a Hong Konger, it is appreicated to see you promoting Cantonese, thanks heaps!!!
You speak Cantonese so well. Thanks for promoting and defending our language.
thanks you so much in promoting Cantonese. So proud of you
多謝你推廣廣東話。以你為榮
好好好好開心有外國人推廣 廣東話！
大多數人都只學普通話。
可能係未來幾十年之後香港就再冇人講廣東話。
Thank you so so so so much for promoting Cantonese!
Viewer from Hong Kong here ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much Grace! As a Hongkonger, I’m super grateful and touched to see u learn so hard and try to preserve our language which is now being taken away bit by bit by our government ;( can’t thank you enough for promoting it!
Gayau !(that’s Cantonese which means add oil/word hard and keep going!)
Hi, i am a Hong Konger. I know you from the newspaper. That's aweome video. Your Cantonese is even better than some of us. Also u learn and understand deeply about the structure or the tone. We are welcome and delightful that someone outside Asia are willing to learn Cantonese. A very influential and inspirational video.
I’ve been trying to relearn Cantonese and I’m glad I found your channel!
Yayyy
Hey Grace! I really enjoy your videos! As I Hongkonger, I am really thankful that you are willing to learn Cantonese. I really hope that you will keep making more videos about Cantonese and please feel free to visit Hong Kong when the pandemic is over! Support you!
Spoken Cantonese: 喂～Grace! 我真係好鐘意你啲片呀！作為一個香港人，我真係好欣賞你會願意學廣東話。希望你之後會繼續製作更多有關廣東話嘅影片，疫情過咗之後，不妨嚟香港玩呀！加油，十卜！支持你！
Thank you for supporting Cantonese. So proud of you. Love from Hong Kong xxxx
Hi Grace. You did a really amazing job in learning Cantonese. Unfortunately, we don’t learn Cantonese systematically in Hong Kong. This may be the root of the obstacles that you encountered in finding resources to learn Cantonese. However, you have shown how impressive you are. It is absolutely grateful to find some non-Cantonese-native speakers to defend our language and our culture rather than destructing it like the government do. If you learn Cantonese further, you will find how beautiful Cantonese is by understanding and picturing the traditional poems.
Keep on with your passion and you really did a wonderful job. I really appreciate that. Good luck on your languages learning journey. 你做得好好呀！
You are amazing! Thanks for your effort in supporting and promoting Cantonese!
To anyone of you who is learning Cantonese: You gotta watch Stephen chow's Movies. If you find them funny, you mastered Cantonese.
Seriously thank you for promoting Cantonese, Grace!

The 007 parodies are fun movies. Then there's the god of gambling and god of cookery parodies. His version of journey to the west was also a lot of fun
Hi Grace, I have just watched your interview with Apple Daily. Wow! Congratulations on achieving 11 A* ! And your spoken Cantonese is absolutely impressive! Thank you so much for learning and promoting my mother tongue, Cantonese. It is definitely one of the most difficult languages to learn but you have mastered it in such a short time by self-learning, which is incredible! I wish you all the best in your future endeavours.
Grace, I feel really grateful for you mentioning me and my channel in your video!!!! Thanks a lot!! 😇😁💗💓💗💓
I’m coming there 🥺
你係邊度人
I love how you are so diligent on learning Cantonese.
Hey Grace I just saw this video on Apple Daily featuring you talking in Cantonese. Well done you´ve really inspired me to grow my own channel as well as learning languages in general. It´s really amazing how you can speak Cantonese so well and that you are willing to put yourself out of your comfort zone!!!!
Thank you so much for your effort on learning my mother language, it’s very hard to understand and you spoke with such fluency I am beyond impressed! I am afraid with London or many places in the world occupied mostly by mainland Mandarin is inevitable to become a stronger line, but thank you for promoting Cantonese by learning it and talking to others about it.
From the HK Apple Daily, I found your channel. I am Cantonese speaking from Hong Kong, now moved to UK for 3 months. I want to give you a big hug. Your Cantonese is great. Hopefully, we can use Cantonese communicate in future.
You are such an incredibly amazing and talented woman. I feel touched for your love and the effort you put in Cantonese. Those who born in HK and hold power should be ashamed of not preserving it.
I just discovered you from a youtube video interview conducted by a UK-based HK youtuber an hour ago. You are a talented language learner. Your Cantonese is very close to native speaker level. Congrats! Being your RUclips channel subscriber is the way that I want to show you my support from Hong Kong.
Thank you for this video! I'm BBC but my Cantonese is unfortunately lacking so I'm trying to find ways to improve! The resources you provided look great. Thanks again!
Glad it was helpful!
I just read a Hong Kong article about your channel. When I visit London again, we could meet up and practise Cantonese! Keep up the good work ❤️❤️❤️
You’re so inspiring, like you said it’s so hard to find people who are learning/teaching Cantonese so it’s always been hard for me to find resources!! But I’m glad I found this video and your channel!!!
I am a hongkonger, thank you so much for the Cantonese promotion.
加油
Thank you so much for supporting our language. You speak Cantonese so well and keeping the essence of it. Keep it up !
Thank you for these tips. We have been trying to learn Cantonese as a family to keep my husband's heritage alive. His dad was a Hong Konger but growing up in Australia he didn't learn it. We hope our kids will pick it up and carry it to the next generation.
Wow! I'm just blown away by how good your self taught Cantonese is! I'd be happy to converse with you in Cantonese if you fancy practicing the language. You're amazing girl, thank you for raising awareness on our beautiful language ❤️❤️❤️
I read from the news that there is a UK girl learns Cantonese, so I came here to say thanks to you! thank you for preserving our language and sadly the government here is not cherish the Cantonese culture, in fact there are already many kids use Putonghua in school and their Cantonese is getting worse.
Hello Grace, I am a Hongkonger from Hong Kong in Manchester now, I would like to say thank you for supporting and promoting Cantonese. Because I had some experiences of teaching Cantonese, so I will feel comfortable to have a chance for sharing some experiences and opinions to you (a.k.a 傾計) with you.
Thanks so much for sharing! I love how you write your name in a romanized J-style. This video was very useful. I have tried to start learning Cantonese many times and never got started. It has only been after learning many other languages for years that I recently found Cantonese didn't seem as impossible as how it had seemed. So now I have finally started learning. Definitely, a big part of my problem getting started learning Cantonese was always being confronted with a lack of resources. So I am so grateful that you shared these books. I had never heard of them. Anyway, love the channel. I look forward to watching more of your content. You are so awesome! Keep learning languages.
I just watched your interview with Apply Daily News~ oh my goodness!!!! You are amazing! To be honest, my toddler sons are willing to speak in Cantonese at all!
You made me really proud to be a person who speak Cantonese!
Hi Grace, thank you so much for this video! I think you’re amazing and have inspired me! I live in Hong Kong and been learning for about 4 years but no where near your ability. I’ve just ordered the three books you showed us. 1,2 and 3. I didn’t even know these books existed and I live here!!!!! Bless you!
Thank you very much for promoting, protecting and preserving our local language with thousands years history! Look forward to watching your new videos.
Just watched your interview in AppleDaily. Words fail to describe how much I appreciate your effort in promoting Cantonese. You must be linguistics genius. I hope one day I can see you in London and have dim sim lunch with you.
Gurllll can you imagine I found your channel through my mum 😂😂😂 she was watching a interview and you were in it and my God your Cantonese is so good! Legit so much better than a lot of British and American Chinese loool! Coming from someone that’s a non native speaker that can speak Cantonese this level me and my mum was gassing you up cause just wowwwww, well done lovely 💖💖💖 deffo love your love for our language and your efforts in learning cause you’re doing amazing!! Ah it made me so so happy that I wanted to comment ahahah I rarely speak the language since I don’t have any Chinese friends so I only speak with my mum mostly. Legit Cantonese is the language where I can express myself more so it’s nice there’s people like you learning the language x man I need to share your channel with my Boyf to encourage him to learn more canto so he can communicate with my fam x currently all he knows how to say is I’m hungry and the time 🤣🤣🤣 anyway hope you’re having a blessed day lovely! 🤗🤗
Hey Grace! I’ve watched your video for a couple of months now and I was surprised to see your interview with 果粒！ I’m so proud of you and so thankful your mom is so supportive!! Thanks for treasuring Cantonese I can’t wait to watch more of your videos.
- sending love from Canada 🇭🇰🇨🇦
Thanks, Grace! I am a Chinese teacher in Hong Kong. I really appreciate your support and promotion of Chinese in England.
Thank you so much for promoting our elegant language Grace! You can check out some HK RUclips channels such as Arm Channel, Fhproduction, Trial & Error, which produces short dramas that went prevalent recently! These videos can deepened your understanding on the culture and social circumstances of HK too!
Hi Grace, I am a Hongkoner, thank you for your enthusiasm on Cantonese and is much appreciated. Please help to let more people know Cantonese. Add oil! 💪💪💪 🥰🥰😘😘
You would not believe how many people here in Hong Kong are cheering you on in learning Cantonese.
Thanks for sharing these beautiful cultures! Culture and language are the bridges that conntects people. You're a talented girl! Keep it up!
Hong Kong has Cantonese speakers, it tempts me on learning Cantonese, it sounded tricky to pronounce like a native Cantonese as a beginner. The other languages I started learning was French, Japanese, Dutch, Korean, Russian, and Mandarin Chinese. I knew Spanish a lot ever since I was born, I have a Mexican mother and a Salvadoran father, and I am totally proud of it 😊
Cantonese here I come 🎉
Your Cantonese is so fluent! Really appreciate that you have spent so much time and effort to learn and promote Cantonese. Support you with all my heart from a HongKonger in Australia. Add oil la. 加油！
great video! I hope to improve my cantonese with some of your recommendation
I'm working to learn/improve my Cantonese as an adult and I just want to thank you for compiling resources and tips. There were definitely some that I wasn't able to find by Googling on my own. Your pronunciation is fantastic, I love the energy you put out in your videos, and thanks again!
I have just read the daily news and I am sooo impressed how fluent you speak this language and support HKers. Really glad to meet you, Guresu.
Hello from Ireland! So happy that I came across you over the weekend, I am going to show your video to my 6 years old son to encourage him to learn more about Cantonese. You inspire me to keep up my Cantonese too. 😊
I'm so appreciative that you keep learning and making videos to promote my mother language. Thank you. You speak so well!
excellent!!! support you and support Cantonese. You speak Cantonese so professional!!
Thank you for loving this language! Hope you enjoy learning and sharing your thoughts more to the world, we could use some more Cantonese-lovers to keep this language alive for a very very very~ long time! 👍🏻 Gaa Jau! 加油! 💪🏻
In my opinion, the biggest benefit of learning Cantonese or any other languages is that you can communicate with the local people more easily. The more language you can speak = the more people you can talk to
Of course, you could just use a translator but it's not always accurate. And besides, if more people learn how to speak different languages, the languages will have a higher chance to survive. I think all the languages sound as beautiful as one another. Hopefully, all the languages can be passed to the next generation for years to come. Stay safe during Covid-19. God bless you all.
我係香港人，多謝你喜歡廣東話
Hi Grace, I'm glad that you put in so much efforts in learning Cantonese and I can understand everything you say perfectly, without having to read the subtitles. Great work! oh yeah, believe it or not, the Cantonese dialect existed longer than Mandarin in China.
I come here to support you while you are supporting our language, if we meet on the street in London someday, don’t hesitate to chat with us in Cantonese ❤️❤️
Thank you very much for supporting Cantonese. All I have to say is THANK YOU.
hellooo grace!! thank you so much for all your recommendations, i wanted to learn cantonese for so long but i have no one around me speaks cantonese and everyone on the internet was like "learn mandarin, it is easier" so you saved me with this video, i honestly can't thank you enough!
I'm so happy that you found this video helpful! Good luck!
@@Guresu thank you 💞💞
Grace, I’ve just read your interview on Apple Daily. It’s amazing. Keep it up. You’ve got a lot of support from us in HK.
I’m a third culture kid who was born and raised in Hong Kong and still cannot speak Cantonese >.<
I despise myself for it but your videos have been really helpful and motivating. I plan to make a start during the summer holiday once I finish exams. Thank you Grace!!
You are awesome, I watched you interview, thank you for supporting our language, hope to meet more people like you

Hello Guresu! Thank you so much for making these videos, we as Hong Kongers even don't have official resources or system to preserve such a beautiful language. You are amazing 多謝你啊:)
You are amazing! It is wonderful how you are promoting the beautiful Cantonese language!
Your Cantonese is awesome ! You can speak far better than a lot of natives cos your pronunciation is so clear without any slurs (lazy tone 懶音). Keep it up! Add oil!💪💪💪
You are a great inspiration for everyone who are learning languages. Well done and keep it up 👍
learning Cantonese isnt easy because of the intonation. As a native Canto speaker, I think you definitely managed to perform accurate intonation.
and thank you for sharing, really impressed by your hardwork in learning a language.
looking forward to your upcoming videos💪
Girl your videos are out of control! Absolutely love them 💕💕💕

As a Hongkonger I have Cantonese as my mother tongue, and learned English and Mandarin at school. I then learned French and self-learned Japanese so I feel so warm when I discovered your channel!
And I wanna say, your hair looks so cute! I always wonder how you make it and every time when I see your hairstyle changes, it surprises me because they are so different! hahaha
Grace, you're so amazing. Thank you for supporting & promoting Cantonese.
