Hello, I would strongly recommend the following books, clicking the Amazon UK links will take you straight to the relevant Amazon description page, I would recommend you buying at least one of the following books, only for inspiration, if nothing else 😉
Here you go:
Teach Yourself Cantonese: Complete Audio CD Program (Teach Yourself Language Complete Courses)
I strongly recommend this book:
- very clear
- a lot of information
- I have recommended this book to some of my friends
Colloquial Cantonese: A Complete Language Course (Colloquial)
- takes you from ground up
- pretty solid
Cantonese: A Comprehensive Grammar (Routledge Grammars)
- very solid grammar book
- fairly-priced dictionary
That’s about it for now. Yep, buy at least one of these books. You will find that it is a good investment. Regarding online bookshops for Cantonese learning materials, I think that Amazon is the most comprehensive.
I welcome suggestions. Thanks. Benson 🙂

Hello there Mr.Benson! I am very grateful that you have made this podcast regarding cantonese learning.I am very much interested in learning cantonese because I am now working here in Macau wherein cantonese is the official language.I have downloade all your files and I have learned alot!I really appreciate your patience and hard work in doing this.However let me comment on the volume of some of the recording because not all have the same level.Some of your recordings have a lower volume than the others.Please try to check this info because it will be very helpful if the volume of your recordings will be of good and the same level for all of them.I hope you will take this constructively.That’s all sir.But overall I am really happy I have found your podcast!God Bless YOU!
Sincerely Yours,
Aristotle S. Ochoa
