This poll should allow people to choose more than 1 option. I understand Mandarin, Cantonese, English and Malay.
actually the poll is for tv series lovers.. so i'm interested to know how many can watch viet dubbed series, canto, mando series, and who can only watch series with eng subtitle.
Err....i couldn't decide. I understand canto and viet, though i mainly watch the series in canto.
There is always room to smile everyday. Alternatively, you can laugh yourself silly once a week.
same here but if it's a canto/mandarin show i'll prefer no dubbing (cause sometimes canto show they dubb mandarin and mandarin show they dubb canto)Originally Posted by kidd
i'm one of the other cause i can't understand any of the language listed but i understand more then just english. you all are so lucky to be able to understand Mandarin, Cantonesen and viet. i can only understand thai and english and it's hard finding series with these language!
I don't make my decisions fearing fate, Fate makes his.
I only watch series that have been dubbed into viet, I don't like the idea of subtitles and can only understand Viet and English. all you lucky people can understand cantonese.
I don't know what this poll is for but I understand Laotian, Thai, English, and a little Cantonese. I usually watch a series dubbed in Thai.
I normally watch Hong Kong series dubbed in Thai but I did some researches on HK entertainment business in English.
I kno Cantonese, and english (as i live in australia, and i was born in china and speak canto at home), but here in melbourne, there arent many video shops around, so i hardly get to watch tvb series.
I know mandarin, canto , english.
I learn canto by watching tooo many TVB series. I used to not be able to utter a word of canto because I had problems pronouncing the words, but now I can at least say a full sentence without stopping several times to think how to pronounce the canto words.
i watch in viet so sometimes i have hard time on this site but it is all good.
I can hear and speak cantonese. I can't little bit English (actually I'm learning it at school :P)
I speak Swedish and I'm learning French

I can speak English, Singlish , Mandarin, Hokkein, Teochew, Cantonese, plus half a bucket of Malay, Tamil, Japanese (elementary stages). I don't encourage posting in other languages other than English, coz I can speak but I can't READ!!!

Paiseh, I was just being curious

I am hokkien.Originally Posted by Watchwacky
Not all Malaysian speak cantonese. Those living in Northern Malaysia and Southern Malaysia Peninsular speaks hokkien. The southern side speak a bit of original hokkien while the Northern side speak Malaysian+hokkien+malay
As for the canto side, it is those living in Central Malaysia Peninsular that speaks canto.
