About

Gam

Features
Read full description

Gam is a small, friendly way to start speaking Teochew (Chaozhou / Chaoshan, 潮汕话) — the language of eastern Guangdong and of Teochew families all over Southeast Asia and the world. Follow Gam, a little New Year mandarin, through the words and phrases you would really use at the family table: • 171 everyday words — people, food, actions, numbers, time, places • 216 phrases — greetings, thanks, “have you eaten?”, and more • Every word taken apart: initial, final and tone, with a plain-English note on how each one sounds • Peng’im, the standard romanisation for Teochew, next to every character • Eight tones, drawn as pitch curves, and how they change when words run together (tone sandhi) • Short drills — pick the meaning, pick the word — that come back to what you missed • Streaks, mastery dots and a progress page, so you can see yourself improving The standard here is the Chaozhou prefecture-city accent. Free, with no ads. Your progress stays on your device (and in your own iCloud, if you turn that on). No account, and it works offline.
