The Year of The Rooster - Happy Chinese New Year - Gong Xi Fa Cai


Gong hei fat choy is the Cantonese way of saying the phrase and in Mandarin Chinese, it’s gong xi fa cai (pronounced gong she fa tsai).
FYI, it’s not a hard and fast rule but Cantonese is generally spoken in Guangdong (formerly known as Canton) and surrounding areas, as well as Hong Kong. 
But elsewhere in mainland China and Taiwan, Mandarin Chinese is generally spoken.

 

LWDLIK - Note to self to go to China next lunar new year as a 15 day party sounds like a lot of fun.
