Hi Al,

Thanks for your question.

You can exchange them when saying "Really?". But It may mean differently in different contexts. As there are many possibilities, please feel free to write a comment with the sentences you've encountered if you still have any questions. 😉

Hello Lalla,

對唔住(deoi3 m4 zyu6) and 對不起(deoi3 bat1 hei2) both of them mean "sorry, excuse me."

對唔住(deoi3 m4 zyu6) sounds more colloquial and 對不起(deoi3 bat1 hei2) is more formal and written form.

I don't understand why there are different versions of phrases in different places on this site and in other language tutorials , for example you have "deoi m zyu" here for "I'm sorry", but elsewhere on the site you have "deoi bat hei". Forgive me if I am not seeing something obvious!!

Hi, why can't I hear the pronunciation for all the vocabulary? I click the sign near the vocabulary but it doesn't work.

Hi Matthew,

Yes that's right! :thumbsup: Thanks for pointing that out!

M-goi can also be used as "excuse me".
