Does what was required

Both narrators did their job of providing the meaning and enunciation for the Cantonese dialect in phrases that would be useful to the traveler. Just be aware of the English speaker is from London or the British Commonwealth and that the words he uses for things and places are different that what Americans are used to using or hearing. Otherwise, overall, it was a good quick review of the tones and phrasing used in the Cantonese Chinese dialect to provide a useful refresher for those that have been away from using the language for an extended time. I recommend this work for a quick review when time is short and you just want to brush up and the proper voice and patterns of the Cantonese dialect. It is not a language immersion program. It is good at what it is meant for.
