^ people brought up by educated parents would know not to write in such rude manner to a post not even related to him

Amui playing a guessing game can be a lecture video pulak.

I got tired with ppl in here thinking or at least trying to make Malaysian Cantonese language is some extraterrestrial thingy. No, it is not. Read all my older posts. It is basically 99% the same thing.

I know HK follow Chinese script. Well... obviously. Their Cantonese words have direct a counterpart in Mandarin, like 你, is 'ni' in Mandarin and 'nei' in Cantonese. But our Cantonese, we say lei. Why are we so different?

Another example:


Mandarin: De
HK: Dik
Local: Gei


Mandarin: Dui
HK: Deoi
Local: Ngam
UPDATE:

Apparently I am wrong as pointed out by a ktard. These words have a direct counterpart in Mandarin, see answer 5.
的 is Dik
嘅 is Ge (correct)

对Is Duii
啱 is ngam (correct)
/K answers as simplied below:

1. Influenced by other dialects

2. The words we use are slangs, which HK also use. But we don't know the formal words, which HK knows and use

3. These are 'Lazy' pronunciation, as the language evolved.

4. KL more different from Hongkie. But Ipoh/Sabah closer to HK

5. The 'slangs' are actually found in Mandarin words. It is just that they are rarely used in Mandarin but have more meaning in Canto.

We mix a lot with other races, cantonese become rojak style
No formal cantonese education unlike in HK, study in schools, and language regulated.
Usage also limited...

Ours are different because we have mixed with other dialects and languages here. Even our Mandarin is different compared to Taiwan. Met someone from Kaohsiung before I had no idea she was talking about guava fruit she sounded so weird hard to understand some of her words.
