None. I really cannot express clearly enough how bad I am at learning languages. However, thanks to this CD I have enough Cantonese to get by.I bought this (reluctantly) when I learned that my new job required me to spend a fair amount of time in HK, and while most people there speak english to a very good level, I thought it courteous to at least learn a little bit, and to help when out and about on my own. The lessons are really easy and clear to follow, and the repeated lessons and words really drill the language into you, meaning you find yourself retaining things really quickly from day one. I used it on my commute, so a couple times a day for a few weeks, and in what seemed like no time I was through the course and remembered the majority of it. I have tried a few language courses before, but have never had one that has been this easy.As for practically applying the language, once over there and using it, the standard reaction is shock that you know the language, followed by a happy response to your question! I know it may sound like Im over selling it but It really does work! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Recommend it for Listen and Repeat Learning *by M***I on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 May 2013* I found this way of learning ideal for myself, it was a bit too basic for myself as I already know a little bit but not enough to have a conversation. I have tried many other CD learning techniques and the Pimsleur way I have found that I have learned more about word order. It is a great way of learning for myself and I will definitely order the complete course. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Plus: Very practical phrases, good pronunciation. Minus: No writing system. *by G***P on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 December 2014* Very practical topics -- much more practical, I found, than Rosetta Stone (which is how I studied Mandarin when I began). By lesson 7 you're learning how to ask if someone wants to come back to your place for a drink. :-)Also found the coverage of pronunciation very good. However, I found their insistence on having no writing a minus. I realize that romanizations can throw people off if they're trying to read them like English; but if you realize that it's *not* English, then a good phonetic representation is a really big boon when trying to make sense out of a language, and when trying to review. Additionally, since I already know a lot of Mandarin characters, it would have been useful to have the Cantonese characters, so that I could match up the words that are meant to be the same.Overall a very good buy though. I went on to buy lessons 9-30 off their website (mp3 format), and I'm sad that's all they have! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/61674223-pimsleur-chinese-cantonese-quick-and-simple-course-level-1-lessons](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/61674223-pimsleur-chinese-cantonese-quick-and-simple-course-level-1-lessons) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-28*
