How do mainlanders view Guangdong culture?
As a big southern province, Guangdong ranks first in terms of population and economic aggregate. In terms of population, the population of Guangdong has exceeded 100 million. And the economy is particularly developed. According to calculation, Guangdong Province is equivalent to the economic aggregate of Spain or Italy. And Guangdong has a strong cultural heritage. When people from other provinces mention Guangdong, they will think of many distinctive dialects in Guangdong and Cantonese people who pay great attention to diet and health. But these are only a small part of Guangdong culture. What should Guangdong be like in the eyes of mainlanders? Speaking of Guangdong, the first thing to say is the dialect full of characteristics. The languages used in Guangdong are Chaozhou dialect, Hakka dialect, Mandarin and Cantonese, and there are many branches of these languages. The reason why there are so many dialects in Guangdong is that Guangdong belongs to a relatively wild and remote place in history, with many people living together, so many languages are used, and then these languages have been preserved and become dialects used by Cantonese today. Many mainlanders find Cantonese (Chaozhou dialect, Hakka dialect and Cantonese) difficult to understand. In fact, it is. If you want to learn these dialects, you should not only learn phonetics, but also have a deep understanding of Guangdong culture. In addition to the dialect used, another major feature of Guangdong is that it attaches great importance to diet and health preservation. Cantonese cuisine is famous all over the country, and Cantonese people pay special attention to freshness when eating. Basically, everything they eat is planted in that season. In addition, Cantonese people pay great attention to collocation and the nature of food when eating. What is too hot and what is cold is the deepest and most thorough study of these things. In addition to these, the mainland people's impression of Guangdong, Guangdong people attach great importance to social etiquette. For example, if someone pours tea for a Cantonese, the Cantonese will definitely knock on the table twice to express their gratitude. For example, if one person in a group can't speak Cantonese, Cantonese people will understand Cantonese speakers and communicate in Mandarin instead.
