About

A little Cantonese,
every week.

No lessons to finish. No streak to keep. Just a short conversation to make Cantonese a little more familiar.

Listen and read along, one sentence at a time. Swipe up for the next sentence and sideways for more or less English, or use the arrow keys. Listen shows only the Chinese, Words adds each word’s meaning, and Full adds the whole translation. Replay goes back to the start of the sentence.

A new conversation arrives every week, aiming for A2-level Cantonese, with two voices and two to three minutes of everyday language. Scripts and voices are AI-generated; pronunciation and wording may occasionally be imperfect.

The Jyutping above each character comes from the font, which picks each reading from the words around it, so now and then it may not match what you hear.

Jyutping font derived from VF Cantonese Heritage 2.8 by Jon Chui / A3I Limited, renamed Dialogue Canto for web distribution. SIL Open Font License.

Just listen. A little goes a long way.
