  3. Working on my Chinese Auntie zine. I am going to do a full double spread on what you would find in a Chinese Auntie's handbag. So far, I have: Tissues, White Flower Oil, White Rabbit lollies, folded up plastic bags, a hand fan (for singers and hong kong aunties), a plastic soup spoon. What else? #cantonese

  5. #SFMoMA . . .

    Drove into The City again yesterday to see the #Matisse exhibit focused on his painting "Femme au Chapeau" . . .

    Haven't been to SF MoMa or that part of town in years & it was worth the trip.

    sfmoma.org/exhibition/matisse-

    Afterward, my companion & I went to the restaurant #Fang around the corner but it was a disappointment & then went to #SF #Chinatown to give my companion a tour of some of the sites relevant to my family history & buy some #Cantonese style beef jerky (gnow yuk gon) & dried sausage (lop cherng) at a place on Clay called #Wycen (that makes them both just like it was made my family's (now defunct) Chinatown meat market) before heading home.

    In contrast to last weekend, it was a GREAT trip!!! 😊

  9. Sometimes you're lucky and find good old stuff (here: 2009/2010) “archived” on Bandcamp. In this case it’s “My Little Airport” from Hong Kong. Understandably, while a song title like “Donald Tsang, Please Die” fell under artistic expression back then, the current … regime? … understandably takes a different view.

    Music is fun-minimalistic, sometimes a bit chip-tuneish. Pity that I completely missed them the time I was over there.

  11. Hey #cantonese people. Are there any word combinations that you find amusing or endearing when directly translated into English! i.e. computer = electric brain. I am making a zine and need ideas.

  13. Turns out there's at least one person out there who nerds out to the #linguistics of #Cantonese kinship terms and terms of address. Kinship is a bit more complex than it is in Mandarin #Chinese and that's already substantially more complicated than in European languages. (Most contemporary speakers don't really know and/or use the fully nuanced terms though. I certainly don't as a heritage speaker.)

  15. @MLNow My mother used to take me to a #ChineseOpera for company when I was a child but I hated it because I didn't speak or understand the language (& still don't beyond a very rudimentary level) & the because the sound was so "foreign" & unappealing to me. 🤷‍♂️

    I couldn't even stand to listen to the entirety of the short Chinese Opera audio clip embedded in this article. 🤢

    She stopped taking me any Chinese opera performances because I was very vocal about not liking it &, unlike my inability to speak #Cantonese better, I do not regret not attending another Chinese Opera performance since.

    OBTW, I don't much like attending or listening to European Opera either. 🤷‍♂️

  17. My grandmother was really into Chinese medicine. Herbals stuff and oils and tinctures. This is one of the things she would use on us! I always thought it was from Hong Kong but it’s from Ipoh in Malaysia! It’s the Chinese version of Vick’s vapour rub #cantonese

  23. @mattmangels

    There are clear historical reasons why #Cantonese was previously the only & still is the primary Chinese language spoken in SF Chinatown & in Chinese communities around the world.

    Fact is, Cantonese as a language is older than #Mandarin.

    Cantonese can trace its roots in southern China in Guangdong back 2000 years ago, while Mandarin only came into use in northern China about 1000 ye ago when the Mongols conquered China & established Beijing as its capital.

    Cantonese is still in use in China, despite Mandarin being adopted as the "official" language of China in 1955.

    And, until very recently almost all Chinese who immigrated from China came from southern China & spoke only Cantonese

    It was theae people who founded the Chinese communities in the US & around the world & almost every person of Chinese origin living outside of China can trace their roots to them.

    So, it is neither funny nor surprising that Cantonese is still spoken in SF Chinatown & in Chinese cimmunities around the world.

  25. Hardest Languages to Learn for #English Speakers (per FSI data)

    - #Arabic (right-to-left script, no short vowels, throat sounds)
    - #Mandarin (tones)
    - #Cantonese (even more tones)
    - #Japanese (complex grammar)
    - #Korean (tricky sounds)

  27. She notes that the majority of her followers are overseas-born ethnic Chinese, many of whom reside in places such as the #UnitedStates and #Canada. She frequently receives messages from fans telling her that they use her short videos to practice their #Cantonese —feedback that has inspired her to create even more content dedicated to the language.

    – 14/15

  28. Since becoming a #mother, she has embraced her #identity even more fully, realizing that if she herself remains self-conscious about her own appearance and heritage, how can she possibly serve as a positive role model for her child? Nowadays, whenever she is out and about with her son, she makes a conscious effort to speak to him in #Cantonese as much as possible.

  29. Amelia acknowledges that it's not easy to persist in teaching her son to speak Cantonese, but she still feels it's very worthwhile. ❤️

  30. @mookie What makes it #Mongolian?

    Just looks like pretty ordinary #Cantonese #ChowMein to me. 🤷‍♂️

    Chow mein or not, I could easily scarf down a quart box of the stuff in one sitting and have done so more than once in the past.

    LOL! 😉

  31. Picked up a very mouldy, broken, dirty #cassette in #KualaLumpur: a collection of songs by Frances Yip, an absolute #cantopop legend.

    Someone had been inside before, fixing a snapped-off leader tape by just connecting the magnetic tape directly to the reel. The card insert was bent and fox-eared and the jewel case cracked. Parts were covered in insect droppings.

    Replaced the felt pad and rusty screws, spliced in a new leader, straightened the tape shell with heat, cleaned, steamed and pressed the card, replaced the case and slip mats, reglued the labels... the mould came off with a few plays and now it looks and sounds great. It has its battle scars but it's alive and kicking, ready for another 46 years.
