Most of the English subs on HK dvd's are good or ok (with a little imagination),only some are really bad. |
I'm not sure where the Cantonese is more difficult to learn Mandarin, but I was at uni with a guy who was learning Mandarin who said they use the same word for 'cow' as for 'mother', with the only difference being the pronunciation!
I'd love to speak Italian, French and German fluently so I could watch films from those countries without subtitles, but I can't see that happening in the near future.
