語言學家詹伯慧認為，基於粵語喺香港嘅地位無可動搖，認為粵語都應該設立語言水平測試，嚟檢視使用者嘅水平，只不過香港仲未有官方機構帶頭，所以學會舉辦朗讀試填補呢個空缺。浸大英文系任教嘅莊域飛指，朗讀試能夠為有需要人士提供粵音水平認證，唔單只幫助本地人，亦有望幫助外國人、南亞裔人士等少數族裔喺香港港求職、求學等等所需 。
Linguist Zhan Pak-wai believes that since the status of Cantonese in Hong Kong is unshakable, Cantonese should also set up a language proficiency test to check the level of users, but there is no official organization in Hong Kong to take the lead, so the society organizes a reading test to fill this gap. Chong Yu-fei, who teaches English at HKBU, said that the reading test can provide Cantonese proficiency certification for those in need, not only for locals, but also for ethnic minorities such as foreigners and South Asians to find jobs and study in Hong Kong and Hong Kong.
