Hmm ... I speak Canton, learning Mando and I don't speak Taishanese but I understand it Loll...xD I'm raised in Canada and my grandparents was born in China (Idk where...xD) My dad was also born in HK and my mom was born in Montreal ^^~
i speak canto, mandarin and yen pin. but so weird, someone have to speak to me first or i wouldn't know what to say with mandarin and yen pin.
My parents came to Malaysia from the Guangdung province in China and I was born here. I speak Cantonese and Hokkien but I communicate mainly in English though.
I'm ABC too... but I speak fluent cantonese and I can understand mandarin and moderate with hokkien. I learned mandarin and hokkien on my own... i really wish i spoke mandarin tho, I love mandarin... the formality of it and all. grew up with everyone around me speaking cantonese.
I can speak cantonese decently well, but sometimes I find myself mixing it with hakka (know hakka too, but not enough for a decent convo). Quite confusing to some of my friends. -whistle I want to improve my mandarin.
