Cantonese Basic Phrases - Works offline for Android
I love it in all it's just that umm... nvm..
i love it????
I'm unlikely to be threatening to shoot people during my short stay in Canton. Still I'm surprised there are no directions to Starbucks and Burger King, given the apparent audience.
It's so hilarious that the app makers used this category of phrases as the first things to learn!!! For cops and #blacklivesmatter supporters, you'll definitely be able to relate.
Great app, I have refreshed my basic Cantonese skills. I am now also prepared to interrogate new people I meet and navigate a mine field.
Too many military and police phrases why?!?!?! Needs more colloquial and everyday. I dont need to know how to rob a bank if I was in Southern China
Great App..to refresh me in Toisanese(a dialick of Cantonese) it's not perfect but it's great as a refresher course
Limited use

There are not many words and phrases but it does have a good range of basics. The words have super clear sound reproduction and makes it easy to hear how the Cantonese words should be pronounced, which is of utmost importance for a tonal language. The interface is simple and for each word / phrase has the English, Chinese and some sort of bespoke romanization that I've not seen before but is straight forward enough to understand. When words are played it is repeated twice, once at a normal native talking speed and once at a slowed down speed. This is an excellent feature and I commend the app creator for their creativity in adding this. Overall excellent.
I like it
This app has warnings that look way too suited for armed robbery, it's very useful and handy. I wish it had an auto play or repeat button though
I highly recommend it! This app makes learning Cantonese alot easier, I also love that the audio contains normal speed and slowed down pronunciation. That makes it alot easier to check whether I pronounce it correctly. I also have a suggestion,I know this app is mainly aimed towards military personnel but could you perhaps add some phrases for when someone wants to buy some food? Like "I would like to purchase....." or "I would like it to take" That would be really awesome :) many thanks for this great app!

I love this app
Its ok
I love this app. Clear pronunciation. But I wish there was more! It's so great. Just what I need to start out.
"SAB" should be pronunciated as "SUB". Many other poor examples exit.

I like it
Can't replace classroom training and practice in public
Great
Best pronunciation
Very helpful app. Thanks! Been looking for cantonese app and this is better than what i tried so far...
but it has way too many phrases I will never need such as evacuate the area, or stop or I'll shoot. lol? needs more phrases one can use! I like that it pronounces utility twice, but that should be optional as I use it to read it out loud to people and it's bothersome then!
But I tried to use it to learn a bit so I could speak Cantonese with my boyfriend but he doesn't seem to understand a bunch since he speaks in slang... would be nice if the app had slang...
I downloaded this so I could communicate with patient's that speak Cantonese. This app has so much more. There are the basic phrases like hello and my name is....but also Stop or I'll shoot. SERIOUSLY there are interrogation phrases too. Not that I'll ever need to use them.
