skylee Posted March 9, 2004 at 04:01 AM Report Posted March 9, 2004 at 04:01 AM I am not sure if the Taiwan accent is 娘娘腔, 總之不好聽就是了. Quote

skylee Posted March 9, 2004 at 06:08 AM Report Posted March 9, 2004 at 06:08 AM I like the way CCTV people say zh-, ch-, sh- (好聽). But when I watch Taiwan TV, it seems that everything becomes z-, c-, s- or j-, q-, x- (不好聽). BTW, I don't like the way Jiang Wen (roddy's favourite) speaks. He rolls his tongue too much. Just my humble opinions. Quote
Guest Calvin_Sheng Posted March 9, 2004 at 06:21 AM Report Posted March 9, 2004 at 06:21 AM sorry if my words offended anybody. well the opinion is not pointed at any particular person, instead it's just widely-believed view among ppl around me in shanghai. my recommendation is that you'd start from standard mainland mandarin. beijing dialect is not bad really, but for a foreigner, it may be too hard to be a master in it. well if u've got enough confidence, just do it ^__^ Quote
Guest Calvin_Sheng Posted March 9, 2004 at 06:25 AM Report Posted March 9, 2004 at 06:25 AM more opinions: ppl in taiwan are believed to be more traditional the chinese style, while hk more western like, with the mainlanders just neutual. Quote
smithsgj Posted March 9, 2004 at 06:39 AM Report Posted March 9, 2004 at 06:39 AM > my recommendation is that you'd start from standard mainland mandarin Just glanced up and noticed the title of this thread. Not bad advice from Calvin there actually. Quote

pazu Posted March 10, 2004 at 11:09 AM Report Posted March 10, 2004 at 11:09 AM Faye Wang and Leon Lai don't even speak fluent Cantonese but also sing popular Cantonese songs. Faye speaks Cantonese with an accent distinctly different from her mainland counterparts. And the accent is quite beautiful. Leon Lai... I thought he came to Hong Kong when he was very young, and he speaks Cantonese with quite an obvious Hong Kong accent actually. Quote
