Hong Kong Cantonese
Is 壞 really used in the sense of “bad; not good” in Hong Kong Cantonese? Personally, I would just use 衰. RcAlex36 (talk) 16:48, 9 June 2020 (UTC)
 * What about in 壞習慣? — justin(r)leung { (t...) 18:02, 9 June 2020 (UTC)
 * To me, 壞消息, 壞習慣 and 壞榜樣 seem to be fixed expressions, in which the 壞 cannot be replaced with 衰. I actually think Cantonese 衰 and Mandarin 壞 are not exactly equivalent. RcAlex36 (talk) 01:19, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
 * What do you make of this? Do you think 壞 should be included for HK Cantonese when it does not seem to be used in isolation? RcAlex36 (talk) 07:17, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
 * I don't think it's true that it's not used in isolation. You could say 佢個人都唔壞嘅, right? — justin(r)leung { (t...) 07:25, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure. I don't personally say that (I would say 佢份人都唔差), but you may be correct since 壞 is also appearing in a recent Internet meme. RcAlex36 (talk) 07:35, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
 * There seem to be a bunch of hits with a Google News search, so I think it's okay to keep. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 07:42, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Yeah let's keep it. RcAlex36 (talk) 07:45, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
