Hi everyone!
Here's a video on this sunny Sunday about how to use the yáuh tùhng móuh in a sentence.
I also weave in forming a question and the difference between the measure word "go" and the possessive "ge". And go over tone differences in family relationship names.
One thing I kinda touched on but didn't go into further that you might be wondering about (and that we'll also cover in a future lesson) is how to make "pàhng yáuh" plural ... well, instead of the "go" before it to mean "one" friend, you say "dī" to mean some or "hóu dò" meaning a lot or "baan" meaning a group.
Of course, making it plural doesn't fit with the sentence I had on the board (No, she is my friend.), but if you wanted to say "I have a lot of friends" it would be: Ngóh yáuh hóu dò pàhng yáuh."
Lots to learn and love about Cantonese ... as usual, if you have any comments or questions, leave them below and I'll do my best to answer them or find the answer for you. Also, please subscribe to my channel and like my videos. I appreciate your support! :)
Happy learning,
Sue Marguerite!
