How do you say bed time in cantonese?

There are a couple of ways to say "bedtime" in Cantonese, depending on the context and level of formality:

Formal:

* 訓覺時間 (Heun Goek Si Gan): This literally translates to "sleep time." It's the most common and formal way to say bedtime.

Informal:

* 瞓覺時間 (Feun Goek Si Gan): This is a more casual version of the formal phrase, using the colloquial pronunciation of "訓" (Heun).

* 訓床時間 (Heun Chong Si Gan): This translates to "bed time" literally. It's less common but still understandable.

Other options:

* 上床時間 (Soeng Chong Si Gan): This literally means "go to bed time."

You can also use the time itself, like "八點鐘訓覺 (Baat Dim Chung Heun Goek)", which means "go to bed at 8 o'clock."

The best way to choose the right phrase depends on who you are talking to and the situation. For instance, you would use the formal phrase with an older person or in a formal setting. However, you can use the informal phrases with friends or family.
