Renaissance men used to be able to travel through Europe and speak the local dialect wherever they were. I'm not quite so ambitious as that, but I am endeavoring to learn Cantonese, the better to communicate with my extended in-law family. Starting today, and hopefully on a weekly basis, I'll be posting the word or phrase I learned the previous week.
Cantonese word of the week: GAH
"Gah" is a Cantonese word for family. What is especially intriguing to me is that it also means home. One syllable that stands for everything I hope the final design will be for the future Kuykendall & Cheng family home.
(Note: I spell the Cantonese Word of the Week the way it sounds when I say it/hear it.)
