Eu sou pequeno, me dizem,
e eu fico muito zangado. 😠
Tenho de olhar todo mundo
com o queixo levantado.

Mas, se formiga falasse 🐜
e me visse lá do chão,
ia dizer, com certeza:
— Minha nossa, que grandão!

There are 6 tones in Cantonese, tone 1 to 6, let's split them into 3 groups.
Group 1: tone1/ Group 2: tone2 and 5/ Group 3: tone3, 4 and 6
Group 1:
Tone 1 is the easiest tone to find, it equals to stressed syllables in English or other Western languages, for example, father has 2 syllables, one is fa, the other is ther, the first one fa is stressed, because it's higher in pitch, this sound exactly equals to tone 1 in Cantonese.For example I want to pronounce: tik1 (means tick in Cantonese), let's pronounce ticking first, ticking has 2 syllables, the first is stressed, so ti is tik1.
Group 2:
Tone 2 and 5 are both rising tones and are the same in question tones, like WHAT? WHERE? WHO? So to find these 2 tones, you just need to pronounce "WHAT?" then you got the correct tones!
However, what are the differences between tone 2 and 5? Well, you want to be very strict, tone 2 is relatively higher compared to tone 5, but actually when local people are speaking, to speak faster, they will omit details while talking in conversations, so you can just treat these 2 tones as the same tone.For example, if you want to pronounce hou2 (means good in Cantonese), we pronounce WHAT? first, then use the pitch of WHAT? you can find hou2 very easily.
Group3:
Similarly, just like tone 2 and 5, because these 3 tones are so close to each other and quite familiar too, so when talking in conversations, they sound just like the same tone. These 3 tones are just like our unstressed syllables, let's take father as the example again. The second syllable ther is not stressed, and this equals to tone 3, 4 or 6 in Cantonses.For example, if you want to pronounce daap3 (means take transportation in Cantonese), you can produce Linda first, Lin is stressed and da isn't, here da is our tone 3 for daap.

How to find correct Cantonese tones

In a perfect world, interviewers would give you feedback on the spot and contact you after your interview with their decision and advice. Unfortunately, this is not likely to happen, so it’s up to you to ask for feedback. In this episode, you’ll learn how to ask for feedback in an interview tactfully and effectively. 

People often don't ask for feedback in an interview for many reasons. Perhaps they don't know they can ask for it. Maybe they assume they won't get an honest answer. Or, a candidate might fear it is inappropriate to ask for feedback in an interview. 

Asking for feedback in an interview is not only appropriate, but it is also an excellent growth opportunity and presents a chance to clarify misunderstandings and land a job. 

While we all know that the best talkers do not always make the best employees, organizational psychologist Adam Grant points out, “Job interviews favor candidates who are the best talkers.” So, in this episode, you'll get a list of 11 common communication mistakes in an interview that you can share with your mock interviewer. You'll also get four suggestions on how you can ask for feedback in an interview.

The episode concludes with a list of definitions for idioms and phrases for those who want to build their English vocabulary.
