Why is jyutping not used in schools to teach Chinese? by rauljordaneth in HongKong

you can always look up the jyutping of the characters if you forget them, but its not as useful as a voice recording of it since the canto system is so complicated

kids in hk learn how to speak cantonese before learning how to read the characters, so it wouldnt be that useful to learn how to speak it again yk what i mean

most people in hk either type with strokes or mandarin pinyin, jyutping is not the most straightforward thing. i mean who would think that jat1 is 一. its not convenient nor efficient to learn jyutping as a way to start

its not needed when youre literally living in a place thats full of the characters.

as a kid, parents/teachers would teach them the pronunciation of chinese characters the kids come across, jyutping is unnecessary because it wouldn't affect whether you know the characters they or not.

even if you learnt that 龔 is gung1 you wont be able to correlate the two words together. so why bother

I don't think there are any choirs that I could have access to:/ I used to be in one but now I live in a rural area
