We lit fireworks, made lanterns, and cooked dumplings together. According to traditional customs, on the evening of the Lantern Festival, everyone will take to the streets to look at the lanterns. This holds regardless of whether you're rich or poor, an honored person, elite government official, or civilian. Shopkeepers will even take advantage of this opportunity to cut their prices so that people looking at the lanterns may even buy some things for their daily needs. Some hawkers will also sell lanterns with revolving parades of paper horses, lucky lanterns, "shocking" lanterns, and other lanterns adorned with pictures of animals like lions, dogs, sheep, rabbits, and more. Children like to buy lanterns and carry them around and play. Our favorite is the Lantern Festival fireworks show. This has all kinds of fireworks and makes you feel like the world itself is in a trance. ----Pinyin---- jyun4 siu1 gau6 nin2 jyun4 siu1 zit3 ， ngo5 zoi6 po4 po2 uk1 kei2 dou6 gwo3 。 dong1 si4 ngo5 dei6 jat1 cai4 fong3 jin1 faa1 ， zing2 dang1 lung4 ， zyu2 tong1 jyun2 。 gan1 geoi3 zaap6 zuk6 ， soeng6 jyun4 je6 ， mou4 leon6 gun1 waan6 gwai3 jan4 、 ping4 man4 baak3 sing3 dou1 wui5 bat1 joek3 ji4 tung4 haang4 gaai1 gun1 dang1 。 soeng1 gaa1 can3 gei1 zoeng1 soeng1 ban2 gong3 gaa3 cuk1 siu1 ， lou5 baak3 sing3 gei3 hon3 liu5 faa1 dang1 jau6 ho2 ji5 zik6 ci2 gei1 wui6 kau3 maai5 zi6 gei2 seoi1 jiu3 ge3 sang1 wut6 jung6 ban2 。 si5 min6 gang3 jau5 lam4 si4 siu2 faan2 sau6 maai6 “ zau2 maa5 dang1 ” 、 “ gat1 lei6 dang1 ” 、 “ gik1 sei2 fung1 dang1 ” ji5 kap6 si1 、 gau2 、 joeng4 、 tou3 gok3 zung5 dung6 mat6 jing4 zoeng6 dik1 zi2 dang1 ， gung1 jan4 kau3 maai5 。 sai3 lou6 fan1 fan1 ling1 zoek3 maai5 loi4 dik1 dang1 lung4 sei3 cyu2 jau4 gwaang6 waan2 saa2 ， ling1 dang1 gwaang6 gaai1 。 ji4 ngo5 mun4 zeoi3 hei2 fun1 dik1 mok6 gwo3 jyu1 jan1 soeng2 jyun4 siu1 jin1 faa1 maan5 wui5 ， gok3 sik1 gok3 joeng6 dik1 jin1 faa1 ling6 nei5 gok3 dak1 sai3 gaai3 dou1 fong2 fat1 liu5 。 ----Traditional ---- 元宵 舊年元宵節，我在婆婆屋企渡過。當時我地一齊放煙花，整燈籠，煮湯圓。 根據習俗，上元夜，無論官宦貴人、平民百姓都会不約而同行街觀燈。商家趁機將商品降價促銷，老百姓既看了花燈又可以藉此機會購買自己需要的生活用品。市面更有臨時小販售賣“走馬燈”、“吉利燈”、“激死風燈”以及獅、狗、羊、兔各种動物形象的紙燈，供人購買。細路紛紛拎著買來的燈籠四處遊逛玩耍，拎燈逛街。 而我們最喜歡的莫過於欣賞元宵煙花晚會，各式各樣的煙花令你覺得世界都恍惚了。 --------------------------- Learn Cantonese with CantoneseClass101!

And this isn't the beginning of a period of joy, but rather one of grueling hard work. I even feel a bit resentful about the ancient Chinese tradition of "saying goodbye to the old and welcoming in the new". And this is all because of an illogical Chinese rhyme which insists on our having to wash and clean everything in the house two days before Chinese New Years. Even now that I've left home and am working full time, I still can't escape this fate. So I have to come back home ahead of time to help clean up the house. And it doesn't even matter if the house is dirty or not -- you still have to clean it up! My mother is a traditional Chinese woman, so she doesn't get weary of this sort of forced labor and even sort of enjoys it. It is a bit like a religion for her. I've tried to challenge her on it. "Mother," I'll say, "I think it's a bit meaningless doing all this cleaning. Why do we have to do this every year?" And she'll answer, "why do you wash your face every day?" I counter this at once by saying, "experts claim humans don't need to wash their faces every day, and that it actually breaks the balance between the water and oil of the skin..." and I won't have even finished when my mother starts to blame me. "You only care about arguing with me. Go over there and wipe down that chair now!" ----Pinyin---- nin4 jaa6 baat3 cung4 ngo5 hoi1 ci2 gei3 si6 ， ngo5 zau6 ji3 sik1 dou3 ， zung1 gwok3 jan4 zeoi3 daai6 dik1 zit3 jat6 -- ceon1 zit3 ， kei4 sat6 bing3 bat1 si6 cung4 ceon1 zit3 naa5 tin1 ， jaa5 zau6 si6 daai6 nin4 co1 jat1 hoi1 ci2 dik1 ， ji4 si6 cung4 daai6 nin4 jaa6 baat3 hoi1 ci2 dik1 。 ji4 ce2 bat1 si6 cung4 fun1 lok6 hoi1 ci2 ， ji4 si6 cung4 san1 fu2 lou4 luk1 hoi1 ci2 。 ngo5 sam6 zi3 jau5 dim2 jyun3 han6 zung1 gwok3 dik1 ze2 go3 “ ceoi4 gau6 jing4 san1 ” di1 gu2 lou5 cyun4 tung2 。 zau6 jan1 wai4 “ nin4 jaa6 baat3 ， sai2 laat6 taat3 ” ze5 joeng6 jat1 geoi3 jyun4 cyun4 mut6 jau5 lo4 cap1 dik1 seon6 hau2 lau4 ， ngo5 mun4 zau6 jiu3 gwo3 nin4 cin4 loeng5 jat6 ， baa2 gaa1 leoi5 so2 jau5 dik1 dung1 sai1 dou1 sai2 jat1 pin3 ， caat3 jat1 pin3 ， zau6 syun3 ngo5 jin6 zoi6 ji5 ging1 ceot1 loi4 gung1 zok3 liu5 ， wan6 si6 tou4 bat1 gwo3 ze2 go3 ak1 wan6 ， mui5 nin4 dou1 jiu3 tai4 cin4 wui4 gaa1 ， bong1 sau2 gaau2 cing1 git3 。 mou4 leon6 nei5 uk1 kei2 hai6 mei6 laat6 taat3 dou3 seoi1 jiu3 gaau2 。 ji4 ngo5 maa1 ， jat1 go3 cyun4 tung2 zung1 gwok3 fu5 neoi5 ， zau6 deoi3 jyu1 ze2 zung2 koeng6 bik1 sing3 dik1 lou4 dung6 lok6 ci2 bat1 pei4 ， fung6 jyu4 zung1 gaau3 。 ngo5 cang4 ging1 soeng4 si3 tiu1 zin3 keoi5 ， “ maa1 ， ngo5 gok3 dak1 ni1 zung2 gaau2 cing1 git3 hou2 mou5 ji3 ji6 ， dim2 gaai2 mui5 nin4 dou1 jiu3 gaau2 ？ ” taa1 tau4 [...] Throwback Thursday CantoneseClass101.com No No 2:30 http://www.cantoneseclass101.com/2011/12/29/advanced-audio-blog-14-spring-festival-the-penultimate-day/#comments CantoneseClass101.com Throwback Thursday experiencing hong kongcelebrating holidayschinese new year Learn Cantonese with CantoneseClass101.com!

Jyun Zi Cung said, "I feel ashamed that I had never heard about Black Birds after listening to music for so long." Leong Man Dou said, "Ten years ago, when I was still young, Black Birds was the most important band in Hong Kong. This title was printed on every single cassette of their music. That was the first time I knew there were people like them in this world; they had invested all their effort and talent in music but still said that their talent didn't only belong to just themselves, but also to the rest of the world." Can Zi Dak said, "In their music, sometimes the feeling is all about their rage against society and other times about their feelings of hopelessness for the world. This music reminds me of the various types of music from the '80s. It sends out a message of independence, struggle, and self-defense. These not only represent the 1980s now but all of our lives these days." Dang Zeng Gin said, "The band represents resistance, power, and enthusiasm, as well as decisive independence and passion. But I can also see the sadness and loneliness behind all these." Ngaan Zeon has added that, "The reason why Black Birds was so big was because they used their strong mindset and action to repair, or even to exceed, the impossibilities and regrets of music. Their music has brought our culture to another extreme." ----Pinyin---- ngo5 mou5 baan6 faat3 jung6 zi6 gei2 ge3 jyu5 jin4 heoi3 miu4 seot6 gam2 joeng2 jat1 zi1 geoi6 jau5 zyun6 kei4 sik1 coi2 ge3 ngok6 deoi2，so2 ji5 bat1 fong4 ze3 zo6 kei4 taa1 jan4 ge3 syut3 waa6 lai4 gaai3 siu6。 jyun4 zi3 cung1：ngo5 wai6 ngo5 dei6 soeng5 mong5、ngo5 dei6 teng1 gong2 toi4 jam1 ngok6、dei6 haa6 jiu4 gwan2，daan6 hai6 geoi1 jin4 m4 zi1 dou6 haak1 niu5 ngok6 deoi6 ji4 gam2 dou3 sau1 kwai5。 loeng4 man4 dou6：sap6 gei2 nin4 cin4，dong1 ngo5 nin4 gei2 zung6 sai3，dai6 jat1 ci3 teng1 dong1 nin4 hoeng1 gong2 zeoi3 zung6 jiu3 ge3 duk6 laap6 ngok6 deoi6 “haak1 niu5”，keoi5 dei6 ceot1 ge3 luk6 jam1 daai2 zau6 jat1 ding6 jan3 jau5 leoi6 ci5 ge3 zi6 geoi3。go2 si4 hau6，ngo5 dai6 jat1 ci3 zi1 dou6，ni1 go3 sai3 gaai3 soeng6 zung6 jau5 gam2 joeng2 ge3 jat1 pai1 jan4，fu6 ceot1 zo2 zi3 wai6 tung4 coi4 nang4，daan6 koek3 jing6 wai4 ni1 zung2 zi3 wai6 tung4 coi4 nang4 bing3 m4 suk6 jyu1 keoi5 dei6 zi6 gei2，ji4 hai6 suk6 jyu1 jan4 leoi6。 can4 zi3 dak1：teng1 zoek3 haak1 niu5 jat1 si4 fan5 nou6 dai2 kong3、jat1 si4 teoi4 fai3 wat1 git3 ge3 go1 kuk1，wun6 hei2 baat3 sap6 nin4 doi6 do1 jyun4 ge3 ngok6 deoi2 man4 faa3，jam1 ngok6 seon3 sik1 zung1 ge3 zi6 zyu2、faan2 kong3 tung4 zang1 zaat3，m4 daan1 zi2 hai6 baat3 sap6 nin4 doi6 ge3 gei3 jik1，waak6 ze2 gang3 do1 hai6 zi2 hoeng3 gam1 jat6。 dang6 zing3 gin6：keoi5 dei6 zoeng6 zing1 zo2 faan2 kong3，zoeng6 zing1 zo2 lik6 loeng6，jik6 zoeng6 zing1 zo2 ji6 mou4 faan2 gu3 ge3 zi6 oi3 tung4 kwong4 jit6。daan6 hai6 hai2 bui3 hau6，ngo5 hou2 ci5 tai2 dou3 zo2 keoi5 dei6 ge3 jau1 wat1 tung4 gu1 zik6。 ngaan4 zeon3：haak1 niu5 ge3 koeng4 daai6，zoi6 jyu1 keoi5 dei6 jung6 si1 soeng2 tung4 hang4 dung6 heoi3 nei4 bou2、sam6 zi3 heoi3 ciu1 jyut6，jam1 ng [...] Advanced Audio Blog 2 CantoneseClass101.com No No 2:54 http://www.cantoneseclass101.com/2011/12/20/advanced-audio-blog-s2-25-black-birds/#comments CantoneseClass101.com Advanced Audio Blog 2music http://www.cantoneseclass101.com/2011/12/20/advanced-audio-blog-s2-25-black-birds/ Learn Cantonese with CantoneseClass101.com!
