"Horse" in Cantonese is "maa5." (The 5 is the tone level). The "m" is pronounced like the English "m" sound, but the "aa" is pronounced as "ar" has in "far." The Chinese language also depends on intonation. The level 5 means that you start the word high and fall to mid-level. The guide to "Tones for Jyutping" (the name for Romanization process of Chinese words) states that a tone five involves rising to mid-level. For an example, visit the CantoDict. Project's website under the title "Tones and Jyutping." This website's page for horse also has examples of the word being pronounced. If you scroll down to the bottom of the page, you can listen to the word being used in a sentence.
