How to pronounce it

In 我聽唔清楚呀 (ngo5 teng1 m4 cing1 co2 aa3), teng1 m4 cing1 co2 is the useful call-repair chunk: you cannot hear clearly. The final aa3 ends the report.

  • ngo5I
  • teng1 m4 cing1 co2cannot hear clearly
  • aa3reporting ending

Listen to this line as a call problem, then to “Can you say it again?” as the follow-up request.

When to use it

A useful call-repair line when the connection or volume is poor.

Try it when: Explaining that a call or its sound is unclear.

Rough literal gloss: I hear not clear particle.
