Languages your customers in Hong Kong write in

Hong Kong customers write in Cantonese with traditional characters, in English, or in a mix of both. Kiko answers in the customer's own language and script.

  • Written Cantonese

    “聽日有冇位?幾錢呀?” gets an answer in written Cantonese with traditional characters, not formal Mandarin.

  • Cantonese and English mixed

    Customers who mix English words into Cantonese get a natural reply in the same style.

  • Mandarin in simplified characters

    Visitors from the mainland who write in simplified Chinese get the answer in simplified Chinese.
