Hofmann Posted August 31, 2011 at 11:43 PM Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 at 11:43 PM Ugh I hate the Cantonese they use on Wikipedia. Why can't they say 雜食動物 like normal people instead of talking like children? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Posted August 31, 2011 at 11:46 PM Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 at 11:46 PM PS - also take a look at this website -> http://win2003.chi.c...in2.asp?py=gaat Do I need to install Cantonese fonts or something to see that? I'm getting boxes in the places of some characters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demonic_Duck Posted September 1, 2011 at 01:43 AM Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 at 01:43 AM Aesthetically, I really like 彎。 Also 孩。 And for some reason, 哈。 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imron Posted September 1, 2011 at 02:02 AM Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 at 02:02 AM 曱甴, which I recently found on Skylee's profile also not so recently (2003!) mentioned earlier on in this very thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heifeng Posted September 1, 2011 at 06:23 AM Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 at 06:23 AM omg, trick question, all characters are cool. The best character is the one that you have yet to learn. That's it, hop to it now and find it! heheheh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glenn Posted September 1, 2011 at 03:08 PM Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 at 03:08 PM Yeah, that's what was auto-selected. Can you see them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbradfor Posted September 1, 2011 at 03:28 PM Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 at 03:28 PM Yes, no problem for me. But please don't ask me what font I'm using.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Posted September 1, 2011 at 03:34 PM Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 at 03:34 PM Well, would I be right in assuming that it's just 曱甴 and then 曱甴 with suffixes in the 詞單 column? I also see squares in the 聲調 field (in the links), and I'm assuming that's not 曱甴. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbradfor Posted September 1, 2011 at 03:46 PM Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 at 03:46 PM I just looked that I could see something, forgot to pay attention to what I was seeing...... So I guess I'm not doing any better than you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hofmann Posted September 1, 2011 at 09:23 PM Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 at 09:23 PM ...Nope...the phonetic component looks like it fits. BTW, I say gat6 zat6 (Jyutping). Never heard of gaat6 zaat6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Posted September 1, 2011 at 11:29 PM Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 at 11:29 PM Well, I think this is all well beyond me at this point, because I can't really see what's going on, and I pretty much know no Cantonese. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
