i find it odd, compared to all of my ABC cousins, i can speak Cantonese most fluently, even the 3 cousins that are younger than me couldn't speak it as fluently. wonder why, we are all raised by our Canto-speaking grandparents (not the same g-parents though, btw).
Lol. You just answered your own question. Diff g-parents = diff terms, they might not have emphasized on the speaking catonese as much.
hey i'm cantonese too, anyway i can read and write quite alot and i speak alright. This is because i have to go chinese school
I went to sunday chinese school for quite a few years, but when I moved house I stopped going and forgot most of it -cry2
Basically, most chinese do speak cantonese. Maybe because of HK movies influences. And if you do speak Mandarin too, you are alright man!
Cantonese...I can speak it fluently, however I am able to read the words but if you ask me to write, I will not be able to do it, strange eh? lol; don't ask me why that is, maybe its because whenever I watched the TVB series, I usually follow-along with the Chinese subtitles...hehe -innocent2 -blush2
hai hai.. canto-speaking as well..though I would like to learn mandarin as well..just to communicate with my TW friends but yeah...can speak...kinda fluently...barely read some..and def can't write..haha.... now i kinda regret not learning when given the chance..but oh well...
wow i would expect more mandarin...lol...anybody here speak say (#4 in canto) yut wa like tou san wa...i can hear it and say phrases not speak it fluently...generally your grandparent speaks it if they are from that area and if you're a 1st generation of ABC
