udontknowme SG cantonese translate to any other chinese dialect or any other language will lose its meaning one
Icemoon SG How come? Since all chinese dialects share the same chinese script base, there is bound to be a way to write down what you are talking about, then read it in mandarin or another chinese dialect.
udontknowme SG no lar. some words cantonese have, mandarin no have. esp the slang stuff and sometimes the cantonese pple like to make use of the cantonese pronounciation to make erm...'jokes' and stuff. if u translate those, then no meaning liao lor...
Kachui SG Agreed. Watching cantonese series or movies in Mandarin is not as fun...especially for comedies. All Stephen Chow's movies must be watched in cantonese to get a real kick out of them.
kid_kid SG Ru Hua(Yu Fa) translate to english is 'like a flower'...not funny liao since they change it to another girl name
meltz SG most still taiwan .. by the words they use and their slang .. if china dub .. i sure wont watch .. hate china dub yucks .. cant stand it just look out for the way they pronounce the word "he" .. taiwan they pronounce as han
