if u are canto but don’t know certain words this is helpful. Also, the curse words are just beautiful and with many examples too! I’m impressed. when I showed this to my mom she didn’t approve but also approved when she started cracking up 😎

I downloaded this app about a decade ago and it was basically the only reason why I survived Cantonese classes in Hong Kong. The classes I took were for non-Chinese students, but they were still really difficult, especially for someone who had zero knowledge in Cantonese. And the school I went to actually placed me in a class where the students had already taken at least 3 years of Cantonese classes because I went to Hong Kong halfway through high school. I’m happy to see how much this app has improved since then and hope the developer keeps up the great work. And thank you for helping me survive high school. :)

This is exactly what it’s called, a dictionary. I’m a native Cantonese speaker. I have been using this app to make connections to Mandarin words. And the only best use so far I’ve found is to search by Chinese characters to see how they’re pronounced in Canto (pronunciations are spot on A+). Aside from that, all else is very limited. Translating from English is limited to mostly single words. Put in two or more and it doesn’t always give you a translation. Basically don’t expect this to be like Google Translation which is also still very limited with Cantonese, too. Tip: if you searched Chinese words that you heard in Mandarin and it doesn’t give any results, it’s likely not used in that way in Canto.

I needed to use this to translate for my job for patients and it was extremely helpful because I couldn’t remember certain vocabulary words. I hated the ads but paid a fair price to get rid of it. I think there should be some updates where there are vocabulary for different occupations like the medical field. I worry that I am not using the correct term when I explain stuff so if there could be these changes, it would help a lot! :)
