Yes, I totally agree.
Cantonese is the one of the most difficult languages to learn and I am so lucky that I was born in HK.
And now I am learning other languages as well , such as Putonghua, English and Japanese! I found they are easier to acquire!
Even now, I never stop learning Cantonese from some experts, books,etc and I found it is very interesting, though some are coarse.
Here I share an amusing poem to you all. It is originally composed by a great poet called xu zhi mo, but now it is adapted by a hk songwriter, Lam chun keung!Hope u enjoy it!^^
Original One:《偶然》 adapted one:《啱啱》
我是天空裡的一片雲 我係天上面一舊雲
偶然投進你的波心 個影咁啱遮住你郁郁下既心
你不必驚訝 你唔駛問有無搞錯
更無須歡喜 更加咪開心住
在轉瞬間消滅了踪影 眨下眼我就無晒影囉
你我相逢在黑夜的海上 我地係夜媽媽既海碰頭
你有你的, 我有我的, 方向 你有你既, 我有我既, 蒲點
你記得也好, 你最好忘掉 你記得又好, 最好你咪鬼記住
在這交會時互放的光亮 互相鬥電果陣幾咁光猛
To my surprise, Miss sunset said she learn Cantonese in order to meet a hk boyfriend! I think many hk guys are handsome and easy-going and I bet you will find one very soon!^^
