Learn Cantonese

Cantonese is one of the world’s most vibrant and expressive languages, spoken by millions of people in Hong Kong, southern China, and communities around the globe. Yet, it’s often hard to find clear, structured resources for beginners. That’s why this site exists — to make learning Cantonese approachable, practical, and enjoyable.

Here, you’ll find step-by-step lessons that introduce new vocabulary and grammar in small, manageable pieces. Each lesson comes with real examples, audio you can listen to, and simple explanations so you don’t get lost in technical details. Whether you’re learning for travel, to connect with family, or simply because you love languages, you’ll always know what to study next.

Our approach focuses on usable Cantonese: greetings, food, family, everyday actions, and the kinds of conversations you’ll actually have. You’ll also learn how Cantonese works — tones, classifiers, set expressions, and the cultural context behind them — so you sound natural, not just correct.

This project is built by learners, for learners. We’re not a giant app or a course hidden behind a paywall — just a growing, open resource where you can start speaking Cantonese today, lesson by lesson, at your own pace.
