Finally learning really useful skills lol Thanks Amanda!!! if i wanted Iced Coffee is that just 'Binn Ga Fei'?

[@5minutecantonese]

Actually dung3 gaa3 fe1 already means ice coffee in cantonese. But if you really want more ice, you can say do1 bing1😄

[@jaycee5676]

@@5minutecantoneseahhhhh.....I thought Dung3 gaa3 fe1 was just cold coffee 😂Thank you Amanda!!👏

[@rychxrd]

Thank you for this Amanda. My order is siomai and coffee instead. 😂 唔該我要一個燒賣同一杯熱咖啡.

[@5minutecantonese]

😉 Unfortunately there's no coffee in the dimsum restaurant. If you really want a coffee. They don't mind people to purchase outside and have it there. The point is, you still have to pay for the tea even you don't drink that.

[@rychxrd]

Thank you for that info, Amanda. I was just messing with you. But I'm a coffee lover. Lol.

[@epistelmoz8686]

You do really great video, thank you. It's the best material I found to learn cantonese. My only problem for now is the pronounciation of jyutping that doesn't seems to be stable. Bui1 = bouille (written the sound as how I would write in French, my mother language) Sui2 = seuille (sui2 seems to be pronounced similar to heoi3) The u have two radically different pronunciation. I notice also this with the j in saan1 juk1 ngau4 yuk6 = san djuk ngau yuk. Is there rules to pronounce well or it's case by case ?

[@5minutecantonese]

These are my very early videos. Now I standardized all to jyutping. Thank you very much for watching

[@Shaboomsday]

Thanks for your ongoing lessons, always very useful and the teaching style is great. Just been retreading some of the older videos to revise, I've heard 'and' as tung-mai before rather than just 'tung'. Sort of like how 'what' sometimes sounds like 'mat-yeh' or 'mei' (normally with an 'aa' after). What determines what kind of 'and' should be used?

[@5minutecantonese]

Thanks for watching! Yes, you are right! Tung4 and 'tung4 maai4" are interchangeable in any situation.

[@jonzwikk1582]

how do we say "coffee or tea"?

[@5minutecantonese]

Gaa3 fe1 ding6 caa4😄

[@LongNguyen-ci9qx]

I know it's normal to pronounce initials N as L sound but can you do that for all words? Also is milk coffee fe1 naai5 or naai5 fe1?

[@5minutecantonese]

normally when we say gaa3 fe1, we assume it has milk especially I caa4 caan1 teng1. otherwise you can say gaa3 fe1 gaa1 naai5 gaa1 means to add

[@LongNguyen-ci9qx]

@@5minutecantonese thanks! Can you please also answer my 1 question?

[@5minutecantonese]

Not for "ng", for example, eye "ngaan5" . we couldn't change it to l. I would recommend learners to stick with the correct one.

[@YRoshani]

A few questions - Why is /n/ pronounced as /l/? Why not write the jyutpin with /l/ for words starting with /n/? I've learnt that 'black coffee' is called 'hak gaa fe'. Is that a wrong term when ordering coffee without milk?

[@5minutecantonese]

Hi! n is the official pronouncation. It might sound weird to you but to us Cantonese speakers, the difference between n and l is so subtle that we don't even realize that is wrong. 😅 if you say haak3 gaa3 fe1, definitely all people will understand what you mean as it's directly translated from English. But most of us would say zaai1 fe1 for black coffee or gaa1 fe1 zau6 tong4 tung4 naai5 which means coffee without sugar and milk.

[@lavenderandwoods7804]

thanks! its really good lesson and very interest, i'm in lesson 11 now [:

[@5minutecantonese]

Great! 👍🏻Keep going

[@thihal123]

I understand "dung sui" as room temperature water. Ice cold water or ice water would be "bing sui", right?

[@5minutecantonese]

Hi! You are absolutely right! To be very precise, bing1 sui2 means ice cold water. The range of Dung3 sui2 is wider, from room temperature, cool to cold. For example, ice cold lemon tea, coffee or tea, we also use dung3 more than bing1. But you are right, if you wanna order ice cold water, Bing1 sui2 is a better option 👍🏻 well done!

[@yenlo319]

the best... incredible teaching...

[@5minutecantonese]

Thank you 😊

[@abygayle4147]

Miss amanda, tung4 can be use for only two nouns for example "si6 do1 be1 lei2 tung4 caang2 means strawberry and orange. Tung4 same as "he" in mandarin, right?

[@5minutecantonese]

Q1: yes Q2: tung4 同 is not "he" 他"

[@abygayle4147]

@@5minutecantonese oops what I mean is “he” is the pinyin of 和 because I don’t know where to put the second tone sorry my bad 😆✌🏻

[@dennisamelunxen8283]

Hm, but isn't 同 unnecessary? More like something that English speakers think they have to use...

[@5minutecantonese]

If you order a coffee and a bun, usually we'll say the word "同", but if you skip that, it's also acceptable.
