Cantonese

I have started speaking in cantonese eversince I started talking. Yes, you would have knew it...tat's when I'm about 1-2 years old I guess. And I always consider myself FLUENT in the language BUT believe me......it has NEVER been soooooo difficult for me to speak this language this morning.

I was speaking to a customer who is in Hong Kong about some issue he is encountering in our product. I greeted him in Cantonese and we started off the conversation pretty well. It goes on until it came to a point where I have to give him technical instruction. I'm lost!!! How to say "click" in cantonese ah? How to say "logs" ah? I started to panic and tongue tide and all of a sudden, I can't even speak a proper sentence in cantonse. I ended up with English+Cantonese in all my sentence. Muahahahaha....Thank goodness he understand what I'm talking about.....

Silly me......I think I shall stick to pure English next time....Haiz.........
