🧋About Me 關於我
Hi, I’m Clara, born and raised in Hong Kong, and a native Cantonese speaker who’s deeply in love with my language and culture.
I started How to Cantonese because I wanted to share something that’s often overlooked:
Cantonese is not just a dialect — it’s full of life, humour, emotion, and history.
From casual everyday slang to expressive phrases that don’t quite translate into English, Cantonese is such a fun and fascinating language to explore — especially when paired with our beautiful Traditional Chinese characters (繁體字).
In a time when both the language and writing system are slowly being replaced or simplified in different places, I feel a strong responsibility to help preserve and protect them — in a way that feels light-hearted, practical, and modern.
Through flashcards, content, and more creative tools to come, I hope you’ll enjoy learning not just vocabulary, but the personality behind the words.
Whether you're here to reconnect with your roots, learn something new, or just have fun with the quirks of Cantonese — welcome! You’re in the right place. 💛
Hello你好 : ) 我係Clara,喺香港土生土長,母語係廣東話。
我成立 How to Cantonese,係因為我真心覺得:
廣東話好有趣,繁體字好靚,值得我哋一齊守護落去。
廣東話唔只係一種語言,佢充滿咗情感、幽默同人情味,仲有好多英譯唔到嘅精髓。
每一個字、每一句說話背後,都有故事。
而繁體字, 雖然而家越嚟越少地方用,但我覺得佢唔可以就咁慢慢消失。
所以我想用創意、簡單又實用嘅方式,幫大家了解、接觸同欣賞呢套文字同語言。
無論你係想搵返自己文化、想重新學廣東話,定係純粹覺得有趣想玩吓,
都歡迎你一齊嚟學,齊齊用笑聲保育廣東話。
