What does Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese mean?The most important thing you need to know is that this classification revolves around the characters used. Here is why. Since its birth, Chinese was always written in characters that closely resembled those of the hieroglyphs or picogrammes and over a long period of time became more complex, hence requiring more complex strokes - this is what is generally referred to as Traditional Chinese. On the other hand, Simplified Chinese as the name suggests, rendered the writing of certain pictograms easier by reducing the number of lines and hence limiting the total number of characters. This was a result of deliberate efforts undertaken by the Chinese government in mainland China to make the language more simple and accessible. Today, Simplified Chinese is largely used in the Mainland, while traditional Chinese is more common in places like Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau.

What is Mandarin and Cantonese? Are there other dialects?Mandarin and Cantonese are spoken dialects of Chinese. Generally speaking, Simplified Chinese is mostly associated with the written form of Simplified Chinese, while Cantonese is mostly associated with the written form of Traditional Chinese. Chinese is an all encompassing umbrella term for all dialects in mainland China as well as outside China. To this end, Cantonese and Mandarin are classified under the term Chinese and in fact, both of them share the same base alphabet but there is a catch; as spoken languages, they are very distinct and are not mutually intelligible. Geographically, the Cantonese dialect is found in the provinces of Guangdong and Guangxi, Hong Kong, Macao and the larger Southeast Asia region. To compare, just look at how the German language has diverse dialects like the Bavarian, Swiss and Hanoverian dialects but, all these dialects are under one umbrella term called the German language. Other Chinese dialects include: Min (้ฝ่ฏญ / ้ฉ่ช / mวnyว) Most Chinese immigrants to Southeast Asia speak the Min dialect. It is also spoken in the province of Fujian, in south-eastern China. It is also spoken by some groups from the provinces of Guangdong, Hainan, southern Zhejiang and Taiwan. The xiang (ๆน ่ฏญ / ๆน ่ช / Xiangyว) Mostly spoken in Hunan Province it has about 36 million speakers. Interestingly, Xiang was chairman Mao Zedong's mother tongue and since he spoke it better than Standard Mandarin, he encouraged the usage of this dialect as the national dialect for the country during his reign. Hakka (ๅฎขๅฎถ ่ฏ / ๅฎขๅฎถ ่ฉฑ / kรจjiฤhuร ) With about 34 million speakers, it is spoken in the northern part of Guangdong, Fujian and Taiwan. Jin (ๆ ่ฏญ / ๆ ่ช / jรฌnyว) Its geographic distribution covers most of Shanxi province. Hui (ๅพฝ ่ฏญ / ๅพฝ ่ช / huฤซyว) It is spoken in the southern province of Anhui as well as parts of neighbouring provinces of Zhejiang and Jiangxi. Some linguists consider it a variety of Wu, while for others, it is part of Gan. Ping (ๅนณ ่ฏ / ๅนณ ่ฉฑ / pรญnghuร ) It is a dialect that is very closely related to Cantonese. It is spoken in parts of Guangxi Zhuang autonomous province, as well as in Hunan province. Gan (่ตฃ ่ฏญ / ่ด ่ช / gร nyว) Spoken in Jiangxi province and has about 31 million speakers. It is mainly spoken in Jiangxi, and in neighbouring provinces. Wu (ๅด่ฏญ / ๅณ่ช / wรบyว) Wu is largely spoken in Shanghai municipality and although itโs spoken by almost 14 million people, it has been losing ground.
-
What's the difference between spoken Chinese and written Chinese?Written Chinese happens to be generally standardized - unlike spoken Chinese. In fact, the written Chinese language is generally considered by historians as a unifying factor in Chinese history since it transcends the differences between the Chinese dialects. Thatโs why speakers of dialects like Cantonese or Mandarin, will write in the same standard Chinese - albeit with minor differences.
-
What family of languages does Chinese belong to?Chinese belongs to a family of languages called the Sino-Tibetan languages, which is a region largely covering South Asia East Asia, South-East Asia and Central Asia. One of the most interesting things about Chinese is that it is one of the few ancient languages which is still spoken to date. As a matter of fact, it appeared almost 2,000 years before Christ. Because of its longevity, it has gone through a few evolutions with the most conspicuous one being its classification into simplified Chinese and traditional Chinese.
