About us
你好! Nei Hou! If you are a native Cantonese speaker or just trying to learn and practice your Cantonese with other locals in the area, we are happy to have you join us.
Our goal is to make this group inclusive, diverse, and available to everyone, including non-native speakers. We are here to support and encourage each other through the language and culture of Cantonese. All levels and experiences are welcome.
Fun activities include food and drink events, discussion groups, hikes and walks, game nights, karaoke, physical sports, and more.
Group Rules:
1. To help foster a genuine community, we would like all members to share some basic information about themselves. To join, membership questions must be answered. A real first name and a valid profile picture are also needed. If this requirement poses any difficulty, please message us directly after submitting your request.
2. Harassment or disrespect of any kind is not in line with our values. Our goal is to create a supportive and welcoming space for everyone, so please treat all members with empathy and consideration.
3. We kindly ask that you do not message other members privately until you have had the opportunity to meet or interact at a group event. Be respectful of personal boundaries. Offensive contact or engagement without consent is prohibited.
Members who do not follow these expectations may be removed from the group or excluded from future participation. Anyone who experiences or observes concerning behavior is encouraged to let an organizer know.

Come join our community to learn and play the game at Collective Oregon Eateries (CORE), an indoor food hall with ample seating and gated parking.
We invite Mahjong enthusiasts of all skill levels to play, from complete beginners to experienced masters. While there are many variations of Mahjong, our sessions will primarily focus on the Hong Kong style. This is a casual play event with no formal instruction. However, a reference sheet is available at https://www.portlandcantoneseplayandlearn.com/mahjong.
We also recommend this helpful video tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JGsb87PEIo.
