Speaking Hongkonger’s Cantonese

(Issue 182/March 2022)

Have we reviewed the daily language of Hong Kong-ers from the cultural, historical and linguistic perspectives? There is much behind the everyday language.

The new theme of Good Read Corner @HSUHK Library – Speaking Hongkonger’s Cantonese is closely related to us. Inspiring titles about Cantonese are selected by Mr So Chak Man from the Department of Chinese. The selected books, both printed and electronic, are also good for understanding and appreciation of the widely used language in Hong Kong even if you are not speaking Cantonese.

Get your device ready or just drop by the Good Read Corner at the G/F Library to pick your next good read.
