Cantonese and Hokkien sounds irritating to the ears, almost sound like Vietnamese language due to racial proximity between these three.Mandarin sounds beautiful. But still I prefer Japanese.
Why speak Cantonese?

QUOTE(bb100 @ Nov 29 2012, 10:27 AM) Of course not. Check this out:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baiyue The Cantonese and Hokkien people are more related with Vietnamese. Therefore, cantonese language sound very Viet-sounding. Mandarin on the other hand is a beautiful language with real touch of literature standard level. |

QUOTE(Meis @ Nov 29 2012, 02:38 PM) Mandarin = commie, no freedom Is this some kind of lousy joke? Cantonese is widely spoken in the Guang Dong area of China, and the people there supported CCP deeply. In fact, chairman Mao was from Hunan, southern China. Cantonese = FOR FREEDOM & DEMOCRACY!!! & they like Dr. Sun Yat-sen (founder of Taiwan) now you know why Southern China like HK love Cantonese Language has nothing to do with political affiliation. It's a fact that Cantonese and Hokkien sound like Vietnamese while Mandarin that the northerners speak is more beautiful. Mandarin language was influenced by the Manchu language due to Manchu Qing dynasty. |
