- Many authentic examples from contemporary media, including films, advertising, songs and soap operas

- Clear differentiation between colloquial and more formal speech registers

Suitable for independent learners and students on taught courses, Intermediate Cantonese, together with its sister volume, Basic Cantonese, forms a structured course of the essentials of Cantonese grammar.
