Hi, ????
Welcome to CantonesePod.com! ???????????
What! What did I say?
??
glad meet ( glad to meet you = welcome)
??
big family (= everyone)
??
come to
??
Guangdong language (=Cantonese)
? = broadcast
? =guest
?? = podcast ( derives from ?? for blog and similar sound of podcast )
OK. Today’s sentence pattern:
How do (you/we) say/write … in Cantonese/English/French/Japanese?
??/??/??/?? … ??/??
? = how
? = say/speak
? = write
e.g.
A:?? “I love you” ??? ? How do you say “I love you?” )
B:???
A:?? ? ? ? ???? ( How do you write the word “ugly/shame” in English?)
B: U-g-l-y
A: ?? ? LOVE ???? ( How do you spell “love” in English?)
B: L-O-V-E
? = spell ( literately means string something together )
? = question indicator (put at the end of a sentence to change a statement into a question. )
