Hi Cantonese class 101,

I was wondering if you could do a list of common phrases for sports including badminton 🏸.

I know how crazy my Cantonese friends are about badminton and how big it is in Asia !

Many thanks for your wonderful app.

Hi Brian,

It's a phrase that is more usually used today as a jibe than actual regret. It's like the "hai-yaa" phrase we heard a lot nowadays.

陰公囉！

jam1 gung1 lo3!

My mother spoke limited Cantonese and would on occasion say an expression indicating unhappiness or exasperation with the situation. Sounded something like: Yum goong oh!!

Any idea what the actual phrase might be and how to write out in pin yin and chinese characters?

Hi SW,

In this slideshow mode, there is a larger time gap between each of those recordings. If you are looking for a slowed version of the recordings, we will make a plan of rolling it out! 😄

Hi How come for the slideshow mode, the speed, when I click "slow" it is still fast?
