Family is hospitalised in Hong Kong (English/廣東話)

Saison 2 · Épisode 12

lundi 22 septembre 2025 • Durée 18:23

Leave comments/ ideas

Hi guys! My grandma was in hospital this week (don't worry she is fine and at home now) and it really prompted me to do this episode to help other people in similar situations to navigate the care and medical system in HK better. Using my grandma's situation I will walk you through what would happen in case your loved one is sadly hospitalised in HK.

Vocab drill, conversation with friends (廣東話/English)

Saison 2 · Épisode 11

lundi 15 septembre 2025 • Durée 29:47

Leave comments/ ideas

Been a while since a vocab drill! Today we are going to listen to a dialogue (or more like a series of monologues by me alone) of how two friends would speak at dinner. I will also show you the etiquette and norm of interacting with Cantonese people, such as should you give them a hug when you first met them, how long to schedule the next meeting, what to say if you don't want to talk about that topic (i.e. just copy my generic answer, and most people should get the hint).

It's really info-dense. It took me double the usual time to plan and record...so, do listen again to absorb everything!

In this fully Cantonese episode, we dive into Hong Kong’s housing scene—from subdivided flats (劏房) and public housing to luxury private estates. We compare life in the New Territories (NT), Kowloon, and Hong Kong Island: Is NT cheaper but too remote? Is Kowloon convenient but crowded? Is HK Island upscale but overpriced? Whether you're a local, a newcomer, or just curious, this episode gives you real insights on where and how to live in HK!

Hong Kong Housing – The Reality of Tiny Spaces & High Prices

Hong Kong’s housing market is one of the most unaffordable in the world. This episode breaks down the realities of living in a city where space is a luxury. First, we explore the different types of housing—from cramped subdivided flats to high-end luxury towers—and what daily life looks like for residents. You’ll hear about "nano-apartments" smaller than parking spots and the struggles of families living in single-room spaces.

Next, we dig into why housing supply remains limited despite high demand. Government land policies, the dominance of major property developers, and historical land-use decisions all play a role. We also discuss how housing shortages fuel broader social tensions in Hong Kong.

Canto Be Like – Bonus Episode: "Essential Cantonese Numbers Guide"

Hey there! To celebrate hitting a podcast milestone (as of the time of publish we've hit 500 downloads!) I made this number guide just for you :)

Whether you're just starting out or brushing up on your Cantonese, this bonus episode is your friendly guide to mastering numbers in everyday situations. Let’s make counting, telling time, and handling money feel natural—no stress, just practical learning!

What You’ll Learn:

🔹 Counting 1-100 – The right tones so you don’t accidentally say "dead" (四 sei3) instead of "four"
🔹 Prices & Money – How to say amounts smoothly (so you don’t freeze at the market)
🔹 Telling Time – Because it's essential!
🔹 Real-Life Examples – Practice with scenarios like ordering food, shopping, and making plans

Why Listen?

No textbook fluff – Just what you’d actually say in conversations
Avoid common mix-ups (like 十 sap6 "ten" vs. 濕 sap1 "wet")
Feel more confident next time you’re chatting in Cantonese

Put on your headphones, and let’s get comfortable with Cantonese numbers—one step at a time. Happy learning, and see you in the episode!

P.S. Got a number-related question or funny mix-up story? DM us!
