QUOTE(9m2w @ Dec 7 2020, 02:27 PM) Easier i believe thanks to TVB dramas. Some that can be rewatched to this day and enjoyed, quite a number on Youtube as well. Been watching some Greed of Man and trying to get my eldest kid pick up some Cantonese What if I told you, those old TVB series were all acted about by Shanghainese refugees speaking Cantonese contaminated by Shanghainese? |
