Hi there! Welcome to Ling by Ian!
I’m Ian, your guide for this linguistic journey through Hong Kong, the Cantonese language, and peculiar little things called sentence-final particles
Before we start, let me introduce you to the field of linguistics
Linguistics is the scientific study of language
NOT LANGUAGES! Language.
It is not the job of a linguist to know a hundred languages
We analyze and decipher every aspect of the concept “language,” which results in a deeper understanding of human nature and society as a whole
It’s an honor to be your guide today
Without any further ado, let’s begin our journey!
