from a white guy that speaks (so so) cantonese I was impressed with this woman's intonation. She is truly a cantonese speaker. Without seeing her I would not have guess that she is a westerner. I have had many people say that about me, but believe me she truly is the "real thing" Congratulations and keep it up girl.

Many foreigners can speak cantonese. But Carina can speak almost without any foreign accents. Cantonese is one of the hardest languages to be spoken without an accent. Abosolutely amazing.

@Jajabing08 - You are correct. People is plural. Use it when talking about one group of persons. Example: when talking about all Chinese citizens, you would use "people of China" because they are all part of one group in that context. "Peoples" is used when talking about more than one group of people. Example: When talking about all the different ethnic groups in China (Han, Manchu, Zhuang, Hui, etc.) you would use "peoples of China."

It is true there are many non-asians that can speak fluent chinese, but what is different about Corinna is she is a multi-talented individual. She is bilingual, she can dance, she can play piano, flute, and guitar, she can sing, and performs at theaters. I think she deserves to have this interview for her to gain more exposure for her performing career. Good Luck Corinna.

no. on the surface, it is just as difficult to westerners due to tones...although it shares a bit more phonemes with english and other nordic languages, strangely. It's got the umlauts, the o: and the u: and aspiration, and other vowels are similar to Finnish, just shorter. consonants are in general identifiably east asian, similar to korean. grammar wise it is different from Mandarin...spoken Cantonese has Tense. It is an analytical language like English so the grammar isn't really that hard.

I can speak fluent English and Cantonese because I was born in the USA and live here, but both of my parents and all of my ancestors were born and raised in Hong Kong. The only problem is that I was never taught to read chinese. I still follow all of the traditions and understand it very clearly. I listen to cantonese music and the only kind of TV channels I have are all chinese ones. Just because I can't read it doesn't mean I'm not a fluent speaker.

torofighter, you're right. China has 56+ ethnicities that we call Chinese. Corrina grew up in Hong Kong & holds a Hong Kong citizenship. She should be considered as a Hong Kong & Chinese citizen. Hong Kong is China. I grew up in Canada. Chinese has fought very hard to get accepted as Canadian in Canadian society. It'll be grossly unfair for anyone to think Corrina is not a Chinese citizen. Corrina is a Chinese of Australian extraction.

If we were not born in that country there's no way that we can speak like the local ones.

Corinna speaks better Cantonese than many Chinese -- no "lazy" words. She's obviously talented and hard working. The video is well made. It gives an interesting introduction to a charsimatic young performer. I hope she'll be picked up by HKTVB, or directors such as Jackie Chan for big roles in movies.

I agree with you. It is so rare even in this day and age for foreigners who live amongst us speaking our language at all. That is the reason why she is on KZitem and getting so much attention, even allowing for her undoubted qualities. I can speak and write better English than most English people in England. I am polite and law-abiding. But, true, English people don't want to "keep me." It is them being racist; but we don't have to be racist like them.

It makes me feel sad cuz I can't speak Can as well as she she does although my parents are native Can people. Damn it!! hehe. At the same time, this video also encourages me to continue to improve my Can. Cuz It shows that it is possible for a foreigner to completely master a new language. I guess her interest in singing also helps her to learn the language. Well, her Can accent is amazing, too.
