I think.. if you’d laugh at these, then you’re very likely are not confident enough to actually use these hahaha. Each of these, you gotta say it like you’re ready to kill someone lol
I'm a Native Cantonese speaker raised in mostly the United States and other places. I already knew all these from my own mom and dad. This video simply clarified what I was already inferred or suspected, in regards to the meanings. My dad said a lot of those words when he was driving.
To those learning from the jyutping system: This guy has named the tones a little differently. What you call 4(lowest tone), this guy calls 6; what you call 5(low rising tone), this guy calls 4; what you call 6(low flat tone), this guy calls 5. Thanks for the video btw, learnt a lot ^^
I speak Cantonese, I don't know Cantonese swears because I'm a good boy... until now... lol. And what's the song at the beginning? My dad always listens to the actual version of that.
Your dad actually means "mother of the family" or "mother of the kids" when he calls your mom "lo4 mo2" 老母. But lo mo is actually not a very polite way to say "mother". Most people would say "ma1 mi6" 媽咪 or ma6 ma1 媽媽, instead. 老 means old, 母 is a very old way to say mother. But in Cantonese since the term "老母" is often abused by people when they curse, it becomes a not very polite term. When standing alone, "母" is very polite which is pronounced as mo4, not mo2.
As a former MI guy whose taken some courses at the Defense Language Institute, I say one of the priorities of learning any language in the military by the soldiers was a list of good cuss words. My favorite Cantonese phrase I'll always say to my Chinese mother in law when it's pouring rain outside, "lok gau-si'...which means 'It's raining dog-shit'...she always laughs with that.
LOL, for nearly 40 years, as a Brit who has never been to HK, I only know a few words on Cantonese thanks to a HK guy I went to university with. It's interesting to see them written down all these years later.
LoL Cantonese swears all the time, unless you are in a formal situation. Also, we find foreigners trying to speak Cantonese adorable, especially when they start swearing. So do it ! Diu Lay No Mode!
I am so happy I found ths. Thank you very much. This is one of the best videos for Cantonese pronounciation I have seen on YT. I tried to use your website but it is not available. Do you have a new one?
ok thank you :) you speak cantonese very well, i just wanted to see what my parents were saying to eachother i didnt think it would be this impolite thank you good work
NO. I order the six tones so as to preserve their relative pitch ranking. Other tone ordering are "WRONG". "ALL" linguists do not understanding the relative pitches of the six tones in Cantonese. They wrongly believe that Cantonese is nothing more than a variant of Mandarin, when in fact, Cantonese is a language that relies heavily on relative pitches, not only tonal changes. Mandarin, on the other hand, relies heavily on tonal changes within a single word and not much on relative pitches.
Some people say that Mandarin sounds more professional then Cantonese which is completely false, I'm not saying mandarin is not professional I love both languages
Lol, I always thought that meant to poke a chicken. But then it’s used like the way u fall over and trip. Now the value of that swear has diminished for me.
Hi guy, very interesting, but some of the word is curse word. eg. like去仆街 【One word Two meaning】 1. 去仆街 is curse your friend to trip over on the street, 2. Originated come from [ Poor Guy仆街 ] it has complely different meaningg
For "you fucking kidding?" 有冇搞撚錯 actually you can put more penis words in between like" 有冇搞鳩撚錯" or "有冇搞撚柒鳩錯" to present a more strong or perhaps a more relax emotion. LOL
How this guy taught these words without laughing is incredible.
professionalism
Ikr
When you say more than enough it just turns into a chore to teach others lol
I agree..I had tears coming out of my eyes !!! 😂 I love it 👍👍👍
I think.. if you’d laugh at these, then you’re very likely are not confident enough to actually use these hahaha.

Trying to learn Cantonese in secret so I can understand my gf when she yells at me.
I've learnt more Chinese through this video than my 11 years of Sunday Chinese School, my parents, and my public school Chinese classes.
ABC Cantonese here! This is hilarious. Thank you. What’s the intro song? Sounds familiar to music I heard growing up.
LOL, for nearly 40 years, as a Brit who has never been to HK, I only know a few words on Cantonese thanks to a HK guy I went to university with. It's interesting to see them written down all these years later.

Words, are just words. Really appreciate you taking the time to educate us!
One of the best language lessons i've come across.
This was the lesson in cantonese that i hoped my parents would give me as a kid ("Don't say that!!!") but never did. Thank you internet.
So my mom's been calling me a beach this whole time? 🗿
Some people say that Mandarin sounds more professional then Cantonese which is completely false, I'm not saying mandarin is not professional I love both languages
把廣東話文化發揚光大
How could you keep a straight face while teaching this? Haha.
I’m laughing like a kid in Form 1, I can now talk like my dad.
Oh! That's a Uniball ink pen!
French here : long time ago in HK saying aloud French perfume names : Diorissimo, Diorella, etc. I could see it was not going down well...
well I've been saying "are you f**cking kidding me" in front of all my family member. I look like such a disgrace girl.
Came here after Caine insulted Killa Harkan in John Wick 4
"PUK KAI" deserves more explanation since it is used for everything and anything bad.
Lol, I always thought that meant to poke a chicken. But then it’s used like the way u fall over and trip. Now the value of that swear has diminished for me.
man i always thought it meant "trip in the street"
I understood all of this but I was laughing my butt off
I love saying diu lei lo mo!!
jetski Dex I cant XD
I hear this soooo much from my dads side!
I am just

My Cantonese blood has risen
Thank yu la, now i can insult my annoying toxic classmates without them knowing🥰

打靶 is missing. That one is also a pretty common curse.
Whats the original word for fk when you were learning as a kid.
Learning this for when I gamble with my friends
If I didn’t read the title of the video, I would have thought this guy was teaching calculus in Cantonese.

This guy swears so much he doesn’t even bother to laugh anymore.

This is basically the only Cantonese I know and my fiancé gets mad that it’s the only thing I can retain.
Just used this to translate my parents arguments
lets be honest, no 鬼老 is ever gonna pronounce any of these. They cant even manage Mandarin's 4 tones, let alone this
I’m Cantonese-
SHHH

Hi guy, very interesting, but some of the word is curse word. eg. like去仆街
【One word Two meaning】
1. 去仆街 is curse your friend to trip over on the street,
2. Originated come from [ Poor Guy仆街 ] it has complely different meaningg
What's the class called, Cantonese Cursing 101?
Social credit score lowered by 40 points.
Our parents were from Hoisan. All I remember was hew neige mage haiya or hei lei thlu lei chae lei mong kei! Please let know what they mean.
blasting this in front of my dad, wish me luck
This is the way
I speak Cantonese, but I don't understand how any of that tone assignment system helps at all.
It maybe useful for those who are foreign and just started learning but we locals just remember the sound
How is last survivor of your family insulting?
Got mp3 to playback to scammers.?
I died watching this for the 5th time....
Could you make a video on how to tell tone2/tone5 and tone3/tone5? Thank you so much!
Harley Quinn has a deathly hollows tatto on her ankle?
For "you fucking kidding?" 有冇搞撚錯 actually you can put more penis words in between like" 有冇搞鳩撚錯" or "有冇搞撚柒鳩錯" to present a more strong or perhaps a more relax emotion. LOL
RUclips should censor the quality of teachers, don't let people with wrong information teach!
