Product Description

Review
'This is an excellent book which fills a real need. Together with its companion volumes, Basic Cantonese and Cantonese: A Comprehensive Grammar , it manages, perhaps for the first time, to make the grammar of the Cantonese language readily accessible to everyone, from novice to expert.' - Dr. Wynn Chao, School of Oriental and African Studies

'This is an excellent practical grammar of Cantonese. It offers clear explanations on a variety of topics, and provides relevant exercises that reinforce the material covered. The writing is compact and perspicuous. The examples are natural, and there are enough of them to adequately illustrate the point under discussion. It covers intermediate and even advanced grammatical constructions, areas often under-represented in pedagogical materials. This book has a welcome place on the bookshelf of every student and teacher of Cantonese.' - The Linguist List, November 2001

Product Description
For learners wishing to progress from basic proficiency to more complex language. Combines clear grammar explanations with exercises and answer key. Follows on from its sister volume, Basic Cantonese.

3.0 out of 5 stars Almost great., 12 Jul 2004
By A Customer
This book is almost great except for a couple of things. It doesn't have a CD to accompany it so you can't be sure if you're getting the tones right which is very important when speaking Cantonese. Also the book doesn't have the Chinese characters so when you show a native Cantonese speaker they can't help you with the pronunciation either, since they don't understand romanized Chinese!

I just don't understand how a language book can come without a CD.
