Hey there! To celebrate hitting a podcast milestone (as of the time of publish we've hit 500 downloads!) I made this number guide just for you :)

What You’ll Learn:

🔹 Counting 1-100 – The right tones so you don’t accidentally say "dead" (四 sei3) instead of "four"
🔹 Prices & Money – How to say amounts smoothly (so you don’t freeze at the market)
🔹 Telling Time – Because it's essential!
🔹 Real-Life Examples – Practice with scenarios like ordering food, shopping, and making plans

Why Listen?

• No textbook fluff – Just what you’d actually say in conversations
• Avoid common mix-ups (like 十 sap6 "ten" vs. 濕 sap1 "wet")
• Feel more confident next time you’re chatting in Cantonese

Put on your headphones, and let’s get comfortable with Cantonese numbers—one step at a time. Happy learning, and see you in the episode!
