Learning Hakka

Yea, for the past few nights I have been practising Hakka with the help of my 'hao liang' gf and her sister. Not bad huh? I need to learn quick as I need to understand and to communicate with her family so that I can be one with them. I want to be able to say something intelligible to them in Hakka with bit of politeness. I have learned a few but I really don't know what it really meant. To prove that I have mastered the dialect, here are some that I can remember. I hope I don't dissapoint her.... ahem...

  • How Lin Ngong
  • Taa Fooi Kee
  • Koo Koo
  • Pet Pet
  • Choon Nga Lin
  • Lin tiew
  • Sik tze
  • Chi Pet
  • Ngya ma
  • Boon kiu diao
  • Boon bangali diao
I remember it all by heart and I hope they are proud of me.
