How it's used

Geographical names in Japan are often referred to by their Japanese pronunciation in Cantonese, but for major prefectures like 長崎縣, the Chinese characters are read using standard Cantonese pronunciation. It functions as a proper noun and is typically used with the classifier 個 when referring to the region as a distinct entity. When discussing travel, it is common to omit the 縣 suffix if the context is clear, simply referring to it as 長崎.
