My native language is Cantonese. I once lamented that there are so many homophones in Mandarin, but I can't help but ask myself how many homophones are there in Cantonese? So pay more attention to it and record the polyphonic words in Cantonese that you encounter in your daily life. There are even three words that have the same pronunciation. Over the past year, I found that there are more than 185 groups of homonyms in Cantonese. This number will increase as I continue to update it. Friends are welcome to add.
