In recent years, Bright Light Culture has successively published several books on Cantonese culture compiled and written by the "Cantonese Museum." The origin is quite simple: the desire to record and preserve Cantonese—a language that embodies life, culture, and history, and is filled with the essence of human experience. This time, we decided to publish the "Cantonese Dictionary," with the first volume focusing on commonly used Cantonese adjectives. Many of these, even if we haven't read them, we've likely spoken or heard. Why 301? The "1" in 301 signifies that words rooted in daily life will inevitably evolve over time. Compiling local dialects is a task that may never be fully complete, and the "1" represents our commitment to continuous effort, even if the work is unfinished.
