skylee Posted March 12, 2009 at 12:10 PM Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 at 12:10 PM A very interesting programme. Relationships are so difficult. I think staying single will be THE trend. It is in Cantonese (those of you who have never heard HK Cantonese should really take a look), with subtitles in traditional Chinese.

Outofin Posted March 12, 2009 at 05:49 PM Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 at 05:49 PM 港女? It sounds awful. It's not HK girls, not HK women, only female HKer. Or does it sounds slightly differently in Cantonese? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebhk Posted March 12, 2009 at 07:00 PM Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 at 07:00 PM Awesome programme Learned several cool expressions while watching it. Like: 名牌奴 - "brand slave" 公主病 - "princess disease" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or does it sounds slightly differently in Cantonese? It is not supposed to sound nice, because 港女 is used to refer to materialistic / high maintenance Hong Kong women.

wai ming Posted March 13, 2009 at 06:31 AM Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 at 06:31 AM Quite an interesting program. Thanks for posting this, skylee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skylee Posted March 15, 2009 at 11:43 PM Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 at 11:43 PM (edited) A follow-up programme -> 港女．講男 (Part 1) 港女．講男 (Part 2) PS - there is a very obvious typo in the subtitles. at some point when some girls are criticising HK men, the 出色 appearing in the subtitles should be 出息 instead. The two terms have different meanings but they are homophones in Cantonese. Edited March 16, 2009 at 01:59 AM by skylee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
