    I can only speak Canto. To be honest not very good either. I can't even read or write in Chinese which I am a bit ashamed about. Would love to learn Mandarin but I suppose I should start by learning to read and write Canto!!!!!

    I speak Cantonese mainly, my Mandarin is horrible, i can understand but my speaking is so poor >_<
    and i wish i atleast understand Hakka coz my dad's side of the family is but he never learnt how to speak it since he was in hk growing up he only can understand so i never got taught it! XP oh well, at least i know something. I kno there are ppl out there who don't even speak or understand that much Chinese from living abroad :/

    As for me, plenty of Cantonese. Some Hokkien. A little bit of Mandarin. I had six years of Chinese primary education some sixty years ago.

    i speak cantonese and some mandarin (can listen almost perfectly well but speaking is not so well). i was born in hong kong but moved to america when i was 3. since my family only speaks cantonese, i grew up using cantonese so thats how i'm fluent in it. mandarin, i learned from watching TV so thats why i can hear but not speak that well.
