Taishanese pride
Posted on: August 24, 2009 | By Maigal
For those curious readers, here is one small piece of info about me. I’m from Taishan also know as Hoisan, Guangdong Province of China. Taishan is located in the southern part of China and it’s 140 kilometer west of Hong Kong. Most Taishanese live in small villages where they own a small piece of farm land given by Chairman Mao Ze Dong. It’s a neat place to visit and filled with culture. In China, the main spoken dialects are Mandarin and Cantonese but my dialect is Taishanese originated from Taishan obviously. Some Chinese think Taishanese sounds harsh and considered a low class language but I think it’s sounds cute. For those Taishanese out there, don’t be ashamed to speak Taishanese in public. It’s time to bring out the Taishanese pride.
