[@yenlo319]

still the best. i have been using the 2 'knows' wrong !

Once you understand the concept, it would be very easy

多謝老師，我識得挾餸😂

[@5minutecantonese]

🤣👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@beardan76]

Because English has only 'know' for everything, to have two different know's in cantonese can be a little confusing for a native English learner.Good idea Amanda to have this lesson!

[@5minutecantonese]

Thank you very much for your comment 😊

[@RussellCatchpole]

@beardan76 but in English we have 'can I' (is it possible for me to ...) and 'may I ...' (am I permitted to ...), but it seems Cantonese only has 'Ngo5 hoi5 ji2' for both. Having said that, 'can I' in English is often misused for 'may I'!

[@jeanfike-chin8880]

HI Amanda, love your videos! Can you tell me what the "dak1" adds?

[@5minutecantonese]

Sorry, I really don't know how to explain this. 😅 Just when we say it, we can either say sik1 or sik1 dak1 😜

[@CLBOO6]

Whoa you met Chow Yun Fat! Thank you for your lesson! Energetic and full of spirit as always! But may I know when or when not to use those characters in brackets?

[@5minutecantonese]

They are interchangeable To know = zi1 Or zi1 dou3 They are the same

[@CLBOO6]

@@5minutecantonese Oh. M4goi1!

[@thientruongbranding]

Does 'sik1' has many meanings right, Amanda? Sik1 = the color, to turn off and to know how... as I have learned from your lessons.

[@5minutecantonese]

Yes, you are right! As in written word they are all different characters but the pronunciation is the same

[@thientruongbranding]

@@5minutecantonese thanks Amanda. Have a good weekend :)

“I DONG LOW, sik6 song1 go. Sik6 jun song1 go geen jye so1” 😂 😂 Sorry... couldn’t resist as this lesson is about “knowing” 🙏🏻 🙇🏻‍♂️ 😇😬😬😬
