口若懸河 - White female New Zealander acting on TVB
Posted by 馬先生 under Hong Kong
Its was rare for me to watch a female 茄喱啡 (ke1 le1 fe1) act on TVB yet alone 口若懸河 (hau2 joek6 jyun4 ho4), meaning to speak very fluently. In this case, I think she is probably the first native Cantonese speaking white actor used by TVB. Though I’ve seen many white actors who have exceptionally fluent Cantonese like Brian Burrell, John Wakefield and Gregory Rivers.

Just out of curiosity, which episode is this? I’m only up to #110 right now.
If you can make a transcript, I’d definitely appreciate it.

Thanks for sharing that it’s always a little disconcerting watching other Caucasians speaking Cantonese fluently, but at least it shows it can be done!
