絮言．狂想#018：時空穿粵方言學（客串：mek1）
上集講完咩為之「方言」，可能好多聽眾都好關心，到底我哋講緊嘅粵語，又有咩方言呢？ 大家可能聽過台山話、南寧話，但係原來粵語方言千變萬化，當中都出現一啲意想不到嘅特色。 你以為好怪雞嘅語音，原來喺附近又已經揾得到？研究方言，又係咪一定要帶部錄音機去農村？ 今集揾咗方言學博士生阿mek1，帶大家認識粵語七大片嘅有趣地方，同埋介紹下方言學（Dialectology）會做乜嘢啦！ 記得攞定張地圖出嚟，跟住一齊學嘢喇！ 嘉賓：mek1 喺YouTube收聽 成爲會員除咗有足本逐字稿，仲有得投票、參與Discord添！ (more…)

Pamiętnik Po Polsku #002: Apple Daily i Ja
don't ask, idk what i'm writing Pamiętnik Po Polsku 002: #AppleDaily i Ja
Dzisiaj (24.06.2021) po północy kończy się w Hongkongu działanie dziennika Apple Daily. Strona internetowa się zamyka, program wiadomości na YouTubie wydał ostatni odcinek kilka dni temu i wydrukują 1.000.000 kopii ostatniego wydania. Dziennik został założony 20.06.1995, ledwie 26 lat temu, krótko przed przekazaniem Hongkongu do Chin, i któtko przed moim urodzeniem. Kiedy dorastałem, czułem,…

Pamiętnik Po Polsku #001: Jak naszła mnie ochota na pamiętnik
Czy kiedykolwiek w ogóle pisałem coś porządnie po polsku? Nie wiem. W ostatnich czasach tylko pamiętam, jak piszę tweety. Większość czasu nic poza oglądaniem filmów nie czynię po polsku. Takie jest moderne życie: dużo wrażeń, dużo do przyjęcia, ale szczególnie czasu do przemyślenia i wyrażenia siebie nie ma. Historia moich ostatnich kilku lat brzmi taka sama. Studiowałem, tworzyłem (jestem…

參加語言迷聚會有咩做？Polyglot Gathering 2021感想
過去呢個星期一（2021-05-24），一年一度嘅Polyglot Gathering完滿結束。 今年活動原定喺波蘭進行，但係同舊年一樣，因為疫情仍然肆虐，所以轉為網上活動，真人聚會再順延一年。 所以今日想同大家介紹一下Polyglot Gathering呢類型嘅活動、我今年嘅感想、同埋點解你都應該參與。 預先同大家講定先：今年十月嘅Polyglot Conference都一樣會喺網上進行，如果你比較難親身飛嚟飛去，記住捉緊機會，報名參與！ 咩係語言迷（Polyglot）活動？ 如果你少接觸西方嘅語言迷網上羣體，可能冇乜聽過polyglot呢個詞。Polyglot喺希臘文解「多種語言」（「語言」同「脷」係同一個詞，好多語言裏面都係噉），個字喺過去十年左右喺網上普及化，最常見係喺YouTube講好多語言嘅人。 (more…)

The magical Compose key: Type any accented letters without installing a new keyboard
The magical Compose key: Type any accented letters without installing a new keyboard
I type in quite a few languages. I used to install a new software keyboard on my computer for each new language I learn, because I wanted to type like a native. I even insisted to get a UK laptop, so that I would get the same number of keys as German or Swedish keyboards. But eventually, they added up, and it got tiring to switch between them—especially since I mostly switched between Chinese…

Multilingualism—Hobby or Lifestyle? Self-reflections after bingeing the Queen’s Gambit
I once thought I had a multilingual lifestyle.
That’s how I introduce my blog and YouTube channel to people anyway. As a student, I lived in a foreign language (English), and I spent some time on various language learning apps every day. I watched YouTube and Netflix in foreign languages. My commute consisted of podcasts in a different language every day.
But it wasn’t until the past few…

RiL Podcast #000: Why a Podcast?
The show notes will be on the Cantonese side of the blog, while the transcript will be here on the English site.
If you watched my polyglot video, you might recall that I was planning to launch a podcast.
The idea sprang up in my mind back in late July, when I was on a plane, bidding my hometown farewell. Well, after two months of planning, brainstorming, and testing, I can finally proudly…

Inject #Jyutping: Chrome Extension Review #cantonese #languagelearning
Inject Jyutping is a new Chrome extension that simply does what it says: it adds Jyutping romanisation onto Cantonese texts you see on the internet. This comes in the form of Ruby characters, i.e. small pronunciation guides on top of characters, which are common in all languages that use Chinese characters except Cantonese—until now.
This extension is so simple that you can already see the…
