C>antonese is spoken by over 30 million people in southeastern China. This Phrase Book contains the Cantonese words and expressions you are most likely to need. All the words are written in a spelling which you read like English. Each letter or combination o£ letters is used for the sound it normally represents tn English and it always stands for the same sound. Thus, “oo” is always to be read as in too, boot, tooth, roost, never as in blood or in door. Curved lines ( ) are used to show sounds that are pronounced together without any break; for example, “GA^OO” meaning “help.” Special Points EH like e in let, met, men. Example: “jeh” meaning “thanks.” U like u in sun, dull. Example: “YUM” meaning “drink.” 5 QQ when underlined stands for a sound a little different from the oo of too and boot. To make it round your lips as though to say oo and without moving them say ee instead. Example: yoo^QO meaning “fish.” ER something like the er sound in her. Ex- ample: “HER” meaning “go.” ’ Speaking Cantonese is a Tittle like singing. Sometimes people will not understand you if you give the wrong tune to an expression. In this Phrase Book the tones used in speaking Cantonese are written as follows: Tone Example Meaning High (capital italics) Middle (plain capitals) Low (small italics) Very low (small letters) SEEN-SAHNG Sir HER Go yee Two sang City How to Use the Phrase Book The Table of Contents lists the situations to become familiar with the contents of the covered. Try Phrase Book so that you know where to find a given section when you need it. In each section you will find a number of questions, each one so phrased that the ‘Cantonese speaker can give a simple answer, point out the direction, give you a num- 6 ber, etc. The Cantonese do not reply simply “Yes” or “No,” but make a short statement answering the question. The answers you are most likely to get are given after each question or group l&f questions. If you don’t get an answer you can understand, use one of the following expressions: English Show me Write it Pronunciation BNN^EE ngaw^cw TAH^EE-ha^a/z seh^e/z- CHER T -loy Write the number CHERT ho-SO loy You can also point to the question in Cantonese and ask the Cantonese speaker to point to the answer: Point to the ha^EE NEE bo SOO. .00 WUN-CHERT answer in this dahp-AWN loy book You will find that you get along best with the Cantonese if you remember to say “please” whenever you ask them to do anything. Therefore, memorize the expression for “please,” which is: Please CHLVC nay^ee Please write it CH I AY? nay_ee seh^eh-CHERT-\oy It is a good idea to memorize the numbers (at least up to ten) and the other expressions you will constantly need. When you need only a single word or expression, use the Alphabetical Word List at the back of the book. 7 To help you with the pronunciation of Cantonese, a set of phonograph records is issued with the Cantonese Language Guide (Introductory Series'), TM 30-334. The records will be particularly helpful in teaching you the tune that goes with each expression. Memorizing the tune will make it much easier for the Cantonese people to understand you. Fill-in Sentences Many of the expressions are given in the form of fill-in sentences, each containing a blank which you fill in with any of the words in the list that follows. For example, if you want to know where the station is, you can look either in the section headed Location or in the one headed Roads and Transportation. You will find an expression for “Where is_____and, in the list following it, the word for “station.” Then combine the two as follows: Where is_____? the station Where is the station? __haJEE BEEN-do AH FAW_X W-CHEH^EA\-]ahm FAW_T J7-CEEE_EH-jahm BEEN-do AH ha EE Sometimes the blank has to be filled out by the name of a city or of a person. For example: How far is_? __wants to see you ---ya^oo GAY^EE yooN AH ___YEEJ3O GEEN nay^ee 8 EMERGENCY EXPRESSIONS Qq emergency expressions ASKING HELP English Pronunciation Chinese Writing Help!

Questions which would be answered by Yes and No in English are asked in an altogether different way by the Cantonese. Instead of saying “Are you a friend?” they say “You be, not be friend.” The answer is either “Be” or “Not be.” Here are some examples of how this works: Question: Are you a friend? (You be, not be friend) Positive Answer: Be Negative Answer: Not be Question: Do you know? (You know, not know) Positive Answer: Know Negative Answer: Not know Question: Is there any food?
