Hi, do any one have access to the 2022 Chinese paper(it is locked in the edexcel website) ? As the GCSE exam is coming up I want to practice more on the listening paper (cantonese version), please tell where can i find it, thanks.

gum ok la, those recordings can be easily understood by primary 2 students
are u studying in hk or uk? If ur studying in uk I think your teachers will hv access to the locked past papers.
Older past paper also have similar difficulty to the recent ones ig, so if you really need past papers those could be good alternatives.

I am doing the gcse without any help from the school, so i am suffering from finding new past paper.

As long as your teachers have got an exam board account, I'm certain that they have access to the newest past papers regardless of the subjects. Which exam board did u apply for? I might be able to give u some website for those papers(forget it, me blind to see thats edexcel..

I can understand a little bit as some words are a bit similar to Cantonese, otherwise I struggle! It's mainly because my family speaks Hakka and some of the words we use is similar to Cantonese which makes it easier for me to understand, whereas Mandarin is like a totally different language. It often confuses me when people from HK can speak Cantonese to a mainland Chinese person and they'll respond back in Mandarin and they can go back and forth and have no issues understanding each other!
imagine not being taiwanese and speaking both
