Interesting !I like to learn it?Might? I can understand what you say,But I can't express myself!

Sung Ho,

Thanks for visiting my webpage and accesing the dialogues from Mantaro Hashimoto's book. I hope folks will learn some basic Meixian Hakka, and compare it to their own dialect.

Samual, good to meet you. There is another Hakka forum, mostly written in English at http://www.asiawind.com/forums/ , but not much on the spoken language. The link given by SungHo above to my website provides some help. My websites are

http://www.sungwh.freeserve.co.uk/hakga/index.html

and

http://www.dylanwhs.ukgateway.net/index.html

where you can find my romanised dictionary on-line, and a brief investigation of the Qu tone in Hakka.

Cheers,
Dyl.

Hi Dylan,

I've reproduced the same dialogues and compared these with the Hakka variant that we speak - Ngai Wa. I've recorded some sound files and uploaded to my website: http://www.geocities.com/sxho1

I hope you and others can take the time to check it out to see how it compares with your own variants. Let me know what you think.

Regards,
Sung

Hi Sung Ho,

Well done for creating this resource of Ngai-wa. I've looked at a few of the dialogues and listened to a number of your recordings too. You need to give the readers a description of your romanisation too.

I will find some time to have a look at them and then find out how your sounds and tones work.

Good work!

Cheers,
Dyl.

[Sung Ho]

Dylan,

Thanks for the feedback. I'll work on the romanisation description as you've suggested. I've tried to be consistent and just used the same convention as that used by Hashimoto.

Regards,
Sung
