Hello Michael,

Written and spoken Cantonese are quite different. Here is a resource that explains their differences: https://www.cantoneseclass101.com/spoken-written-cantonese/.

Most materials on CantoneseClass101 are prepared with spoken Cantonese.

Does this site teach written Cantonese? I can not read and write and I can not find where are the lessons for writing and reading.

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.

陰公囉！

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?
