Learn Minnan-hua/Hokkien

做陣來學閩南話 歡迎你來參加「歡喜講閩南話」，一起學習閩南話（在新加坡亦稱福建話）。 和許多南方漢語一樣，閩南話保留了許多古漢語特徵，蘊涵豐富的文化底蘊。其音韻古樸雅致，其詞彙生動活潑，用以交流趣味盎然。 無論你是初學者，還是想要提高自己的閩南話水平，都歡迎來和我們一起探索閩南話的博大精深。 如果你會說閩南話，也請你來幫助其他人學習該語言。 Come and learn Minnan-hua/Hokkien with us! Welcome to 歡喜講閩南話 (huann hí kóng bân lâm uē), where you can learn Minnan-hua (aka Hokkien in Singapore) together with us. Similar to many other Southern Chinese Languages, Minnan-hua retains a splendid array of linguistic features of Old and Middle Chinese, embodying long-standing traditions and a rich cultural heritage. Its pronunciations are elegant and refined, while its vocabulary is lively and vivid, making conversations delightfully entertaining. Whether you are a complete beginner or one who aims to improve their proficiency in the language, you are welcome to join us on this journey of linguistic exploration. If you are a speaker of the Minnan-hua, we would deeply appreciate it if you could come and share your knowledge with the learners. *** GETTING THERE Nearest MRT station: Promenade *@ Downtown (blue) Line or Circle (yellow) Line* Other MRT stations: Esplanade *@ Circle (yellow) Line*; City Hall *@ North-East (red) Line* LOCATING US INSIDE THE FOOD COURT We are seated at the far end of the food court where the wall is, away from the stalls, or near that area.
