    Ep27- Something you must know learning Cantonese- Lazy Pronunciation 懶音

    In Episode 27 of Bite-size CantoneseI explore “lazy pronunciation” (懶音) in Hong Kong Cantonese, where sounds are naturally simplified in casual speech. I explain why this happens—speed, comfort, lack of formal education, and language evolution and I shared my story about lazy pronunciation.  Learners are encouraged to understand authentic Cantonese, balance accuracy with real-life communication. Jyutping is highly recommended for learner who just start learning Cantonese. For intermediate learner, you may want to challenge yourself by taking tests e.g tests offered by this organisation HKCALA. More information about the test at the link below https://cala.hk/en/cope/ I came across a webpage explaining Cantonese lazy pronunciation and found it useful for learners.https://rhapsodyinlingo.com/en/lazy-sounds/  you may be interested to know other native speakers' opinions on this. (He has a Canto podcast which i think it is worth for intermediate learners to listen to, podcast name:絮言．狂想 )  I wish you all a Happy New Year 2026. All the best! Celia xx
