你好，好高興識你。

The North Wind and the Sun

北風同太陽喺度拗緊邊個勁啲。就喺呢個時候，有個着住件暖褸嘅旅客沿住條路行緊過嚟。佢哋講好，邊個可以先令旅客除咗件褸，就算邊個勁啲。北風用盡全力咁吹，但係風吹得越勁，旅客就將件褸包得越實。最後，北風唯有放棄。跟住輪到太陽暖暖哋咁照落嚟，旅客即刻就除咗件褸。所以北風唔認都唔得，太陽真係比佢勁。

It has 6 tones (9 in the traditional count), more than Standard Chinese.
The word order is subject-verb-object, but to compare you put '過' after the adjective, like '我高過你 (I'm taller than you)'.
Hong Kong and Macau use traditional characters, and spoken Cantonese is written with special characters like '嘅', '咗', and '佢'.
Final sounds '-p, -t, -k' are still around, so many words sound close to Korean readings of Chinese characters, like '學 (hok6, Korean hak)'.
