- From my personal view. I think someone would need a very specific reason to want to learn Cantonese. There are only a few cities/regions where Cantonese is common. Also, I believe Cantonese speakers can often speak another language/dialect such as Mandarin and/or English. These languages are more broadly useful.0 votedMay 31, 20140
- It is difficult to judge without knowing what "it" and "they" should refer to. It seems likely that the sentence might be confusing or strange even in the correct context. Also the use of the word "citizen" is probably not what you want, unless you really want to specifically emphasize "citizenship." Probably something like "local people" or "locals" or "residents" is what you want.0 votedMay 31, 20140
It is quite good, but I definitely hear a slavic sound. It is very hard to pinpoint where it comes from though. Here are some places where some sounds are off:
this: should be short i, sounds long, also could work more on th in some cases, and sometimes s sounds like z (where it shouldn't (eg "this"))
Other places long a sounds a little off, a bit too much toward a short e sound.
