Zusammenfassung: | Learn Cantonese the fast and easy way with this book! People keep saying learning Cantonese is hard, and to speak proficient Cantonese like Hong Kongers is to sing songs with its nine-tone system. While it is stunningly entertaining to witness how a melodic text such as 'yü yü yü, yü yü yü, yü yü yü, yü yü yü, yü yü yü.' can carry the grammatically flawless and romantic content of 'You and I, met in the rain, you said to me, "while it's still raining, come to my place. I'll bring you comfort."', one tiny mistroke in the language tone can turn the lexical meaning of 'a computer' into 'an idiot'. But perhaps learning Cantonese is not as challenging as it sounds? In Taming Babel, expatriates and foreigners who study, work and live in Hong Kong, share with you useful tips and tricks you do not know when learning Cantonese. |
