Oh my GOD. I CANT BELIEVE I ACTUALLY UNDERSTOOD ALL OF IT. THANK THANK THANK U SOOOOO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO.

That explanation of tones was absolutely amazing!! I wasn’t able to make sense of any of the tones until now! I studied at Hong Kong Polytechnic University for 4 months and I was so discouraged by the way people taught the tones. Explaining it with relation to English sounds contextualizes everything really well. Amazing thank youuuuu

I come from Vietnam and think Cantonese tones are easy to me because my language already has 6 tones. But when I decided to learn Cantonese, it confused me with tons of teaching videos until I found this one. Thank you so much!

I went from feeling like Cantonese was going to be hard to being like, "Ohhh, I got this!" Give thanks for this video!

Wow I’ve watched like 10 videos and this one finally made tones feel accessible to me. I loved it! What a logical and easy way of explaining. Don’t be fooled by those 2 minute videos out there. This one is worth your time.

That was absolutely the best explanation of tones! Amazing teaching skills, making life easier for the student.

The example with "li-sten" being tone 1 and 6 was enormously helpful, thank you for your video =)

OH MY GOD I just want to say THANK YOU! You made it SOOOO easy to understand! I could not pronounce a single word for the life of me, but now I actually think I have a chance! I see online that 4 is lower than 6, then how come when you taught "Canada" you made it seem like 6 is lower? Edit: just said some words to my Cantonese friend (Enping) and she understood all of them!!! Before this I couldn't get her to understand a single word. I'd say "hai" 500 times until she'd say "that one was similar enough" but now I said it once and she understood right away! Same with many more words!

I’ve been learning Mandarin for 3.5 years, Japanese for 1.5 years, and I’m just starting to dive into Cantonese as my third Asian language. Thanks so much for your detailed breakdown! I just subscribed! 多谢! 👍

The best explanation on cantonese tones. The best

Damn I just killed my mandarin throat trying to say the tones, but your Cantonese teaching is awesome! I downloaded Cantonese learning apps to help with my career but they just put some tones there without even explaining what the tones were so I came to your channel. Helped me a lot. Throughout the video I was saying: This Lady is awesome!

This is one of the best lessons about Cantonese tones you can find on internet by far. Explanation about common use in daily conversations makes me feel in confort about what I thought for logic, that some things depend on the context and even native can confuse some subtle stuff, as it happens any language. Thank you for the lesson!

Oh my gosh! You made learning Cantonese tones easier! thank you!! They say Cantonese is hard because it's got friggin 6 tones, and it initially deterred me from learning. Now, I've got the confidence to learn more! Stay safe and healthy during this pandemic. I have relatives in HK too.

You have given an absolutely understandable and amazing explanation. I am an English teacher and I can say that you have made this very difficult topic very understandable. Thank you SO much for this. Tones are what discourages beginners when learning Cantonese. You did an EXCELLENT job in teaching us about the tones and the rules for using them. Thank you VERY much, Teacher!!!!

14:35 explaining it in terms of relativity helped a lot. I would always stress if I was using "3" or "6", but in that context it doesnt really matter as long as its somewhat lower than 1.

16:25 I love how she moves her hand!

This is fantastic! Subscribed. Best tone explanation I've seen so far.

Omg I am studying Cantonese for working holiday next year, and this video is by far the best help with the overwhelming tones! Thanks a lot :)

The best explanation ever! Thank you so much! I have been trying to learn cantonese for 3 years. I have watched loads of video explanations of tones. I regret I didn't find your video earlier. You are a great teacher!

Your explanation for tones is so so helpful thank you!!

Thank you for this! I was having such a hard time hearing a difference between the tones but now I've got! I love how you compare them to words in English, it made it click!

Where has this video been all my life?! I was thinking it would be impossible to learn Cantonese, but this is an amazing start.

Thank you for doing this video! I'm grateful for your teaching style. I'm going to watch other videos of yours.

Thanks a lot, this video is by far the best one i’ve watch to start getting the tone differences!

OMG finally I found the practical one. Thank you

Omg! You're awesome Yoyo!!!! I've watched several videos to learn Cantonese tones on KZfaq and got more and more confused. This video is definitely clear and helpful!!! Hope can see more videos soon!!!

Oh my goodness. I LOVE your explanation of the tones! Finally clicked! Thank you

I'm half chinese and my grandparents have never heard me speak Cantonese ever and i'm studying to have dinner one time and pull out cantonese. I JUST realised what bin dou means even though it's something that comes into a sentence often and i've heard it so many times.

You’re awesome! Finally something that keeps your attention early AND provide English comparable for the tones which is super helpful and relatable! 😊

Thank you so much. This is the best description of tones I've come across. Other teachers make it way too complicated and unforgiving, which is not the reality of speaking it. 🙏

Wow so easy now... I got the idea of the 6 tones. You are an amazing teacher madam. M goi saai 🎉

Omg this ‘what what listen’ method works like magic!!! Many thanks!!!!

After watching this lesson, I fall in love with u. Just learning cantonese tones was like being in the midst of nowhere and lost. But now I m found in u, u r my cantonese Godess 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍😍

多謝美女老師雅教！愚生學漢語已久，以北方官話為主，雖然一直想學廣東話，總覺得粵語聲調太難掌握了，聽您講課突然感覺終於明白了，千謝萬恩啊！

The link between the English and contonese words made the tones so much more memorable! Thank you

Wow this video is absolutely amazing! I hope every Cantonese learner can find this video for tones. Thank you so much!

This is the best Cantonese tones video ever !

I’ve just started learning Cantonese so I’ve been watching a lot of videos explaining the tones.. this is the best so far, very good explanation. Thank you!

girl you are a genius! thank you so much 💕😭

This is the best cantonese pronunciation tutorial I've ever watched! Thx a ton ;)

There's a huge mistake in this video, High Tones are 1,2,3 and Low tones are 4,5,6. It was classically taught as 陰陽, 陰 tones are high pitched and 陽 tones are low pitched. 陰平

Best cantonese tones lesson so far,,,auto subscribed

Wow I finally found a video that breaks the tones down so easily thank you 🙏

Thanks a lot! That these "small" details, not mentioned in the books, that language students need to know. I was always worrying too much how to correctly distinguish and pronounce tones 2 and 5

非常实用的讲解！很喜欢你轻松自然的讲课风格🥰

As a heritage speaker of Cantonese, of all the videos that teach the tones of Cantonese, I can honestly say this video is among one of the best out there for a beginner. I understand how stressful mastering all 6 tones would be. I haven't even mastered it myself even, and that's completely ok because you really don't need all six to make yourself understandable. And just being able to make yourself understandable when speaking Cantonese is all that matters, perfect pronunciation is only best reserved for professional purposes. Just learning the four general tones as described in the video is sufficient. Only know the high tone (1), the mid tone (3), the rising tone (2/5), and low tone (4/6) and you'll be set and I doubt anyone will judge you for not being able to tell the difference between tones 2 and 5 as an example. Additionally, you can also decide to group tone 6 together with tone 3 (since technically tone 6 is between tones 3 and 4), because many HKers pronounce tone 6 syllables the same way as tone 3. I personally group tones 6 and 4 together. That being said, if you're able to easily pick out the true tone 6 or the difference between tones 2 and 5 (2: low to high, 5: low to mid), that's awesome! But don't feel pressured to have to learn the minute differences just because most other resources tell you to learn all 6.

You're an incredible teacher. This is awesome.

She is the best teacher. She made me clear about all tones. TQ😊🙏

Damn she is so smart man, good teacher

This was amazing! The link between Canto tones and english stress/unstressed syllables really helped! Thanks!

This was the best explanation I have found, thank you!

Finally somebody with the intellectual explanation thank you
