Learn Cantonese!

This site contains thousands of print-friendly Chinese reference sheets, tests, revision aids and a unique Chinese dictionary called CantoDict. It is aimed to help you speak, read and write Hong Kong Chinese.  As such, the pronunciation given is not Mandarin 'pinyin' or 'Putonghua', it is Cantonese 'LSHK' or 'jyutping'.  
Having said that, many of the sheets, flashcards and tests will also help you learn Mandarin, as Chinese writing is the same in both Mandarin and Cantonese. Also CantoDict can run in both Cantonese and Mandarin modes.  
Please see our Discussion Forums to either ask questions or help answer existing ones.

Well time has flown and lots has happened with my life.
I am now a proud father and as such site updates have been impacted I'm afraid!
CantoDict is still going strong though and I hope to find time for some useful updates soon.
On a less positive note, we are currently undergoing a spam attack, so please bear with us while we try and deal with this.
