Learn Cantonese This Year

You know, you don’t have to commit to a whole awful hour a week. No, you can take Happy Jellyfish People’s Democratic Language Bureau’s three hour crash course!

Perhaps even a crash course sounds too daunting to you. You want to speak Cantonese, but don’t want to go through the process of actually learning it. But the day comes and pushed by your wife/boyfriend/colleague you’ll be dragging yourself into the Honolulu (home of Cantonese) shivering with fear and without being able to utter more than a simple 早晨 in Canto. Your brain will scream “No! No! You can’t make me!” inside your head, while you hold on to the doorframe for dear life, claiming you’re ‘crap at languages.’
And yet! Only three short hours later you’ll be strutting, nay, sashaying down the street, with a cheerful remark to all and sundry, ordering beers and what not in the dulcet tones, that song of angels that is Cantonese.

No commitment! Just one little afternoon.

I’m also doing a crash course in how to read and write Chinese characters next Saturday. Sign up, sign up.
