About Cantonese Transcription

Cantonese is spoken by 85M+ people worldwide, primarily in Hong Kong, China (Guangdong), Macau. Cantonese has six tones (versus Mandarin's four) and a large gap between formal written Chinese and colloquial spoken Cantonese. Whisper handles Hong Kong media reasonably; accuracy is good but below Mandarin.

Writing system: Cantonese is written with Chinese characters, mostly Traditional, plus a set of Cantonese-only characters for colloquial words that have no Mandarin equivalent.
