yeah, they taught me cantonese... well they spoke it to me when i was little and then i knew. i only speak cantonese to my grandma and mom but not my dad for some reason. im going to be learning mandarin soon so imma commit to learning it. lots of old chinese dialects (i.e shanghainese) are dying, so we gotta keep speaking the dialects also/teaching it inside the families or who knows what will happen.
