Written Cantonese is widely used on cyberspace. This is the website of 7-eleven and it is written with Cantonese. http://img.skitch.com/20100402-fka44xqmfr5iuqb69ygj73gn66.jpg I post the same Cantonese grammar book again because it teaches personal pronoun. http://img.skitch.com/20100401-g8iir8bnhd68skfce235p5ghdh.jpg
I wish Google can recognize that Chinese isn't just one language. Other Chinese languages aren't the dialects of Mandarin. And written form of these languages aren't the same as Mandarin. Hokkien may become the next Han anguage that can be written out successfully like Cantonese do. Because Taiwan is now a free place and Hokkien in Taiwan is now reviving the once suppressed language and finding ways to write it. I feel like Beijing is driving to Nazi-like direction. Do you know that Mandarin is now called "Hanyu", the language of Han? So you know, Putonghua means normal (common) language. Now, Mandarin is usually referred as language of Han. I feel disgusted. It is like Hitler called german the language of "aryan people". -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "General" group.
