Numbers in Cantonese 1–20
By Dmytro Syrykh, the parent who makes Kidster
Spoken by a native Cantonese voice, the same recording a child hears in the Kidster app.
Numbers 1–10 are free in Kidster; 11–20 come with Premium.
Good to know
These recordings are in Cantonese. The numbers are as regular as in Mandarin (十一 is “ten-one”), but they sound different: one is jat1, two is ji6, ten is sap6. Cantonese uses 兩 (loeng5) for “two of something”.
