    i fluently speak Cantonese daily, and im learning mandarin. I think its best if we know how to speak both fluently.
     
  4. yea I'm with you on that.. but it's a pain trying to learn the other when you speak one fluently..

    i believe that canto is going to disappear sooner or later..or at least it will def. cease..bhw, i´m canto, and that just cuz there r too many mados..the whole china is u know, mado, and it´s just hk which is still canto..and but i like canto more..it sounds better and it´s more of a "big City" language...
     
  8. WT... o_O; yo HK ain't the only city speakin canton..but uhh.. yea.. it's here to say mang...

    Hell as long as there is TVB.. derr will be CANTONESE!! holla -cool2

    dumbest question ive ever heard...

    topic starter didnt even spell cantonese right...
     
  13. i seriously think learning mandarin will be beneficial to you, i wish to learn it after i learn more about cantonese but what i have noticed is a lot of chinese people speak tawaisanese (NOT taiwanese, probably didnt spell it right),

    suck it up and learn the language, it will be good for you in the long run

    yeah.... when americans start sneaking into mexico and start taking the mexicans jobs.....

    though it aint china, in san francisco's chinatown 15 years ago madarin was the dominate language .... now it is cantonese... wassup.. hahaha (i know this because some old lady who grew up in chinatown told me this when she was telling me about how much has changed n blah blah blah)

    Although I don't like mandarin, I have to admit cantonese will probably cease sooner or later. after all, mandarin IS the official spoken language in china.

    i kinda think that mandarin is somewhat popular than cantonese. it's like whenever i saw some asians in the street...they'll be speaking mandarin. personally i don't know mandarin at all and i can speak cantonese fluently. i do think mandarin is so hard to learn...like you gotta roll you tongue to say stuffs.
