Chinese Language Course Introduction

Chinese is spoken in Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore and other regions with Chinese communities. Spoken Chinese is istinguished by its high level of internal diversity, though all spoken varieties of Chinese are tonal and analytic. The standardized form of spoken Chinese is Standard Mandarin (Putonghua/Guoyu), based on the Beijing dialect. Standard Mandarin is the official language of the People's Republic of China and the Republic of China (Taiwan), as well as one of four official languages of Singapore.

Chinese or the Sinitic language(s) can be considered a language or language family. About one-fifth of the world's population, or over 1 billion people, speak some form of Chinese as their native language.

Chinese Language

Chinese is a group of related but in many cases mutually unintelligible language varieties, forming a branch of the Sino-Tibetan language family. Chinese is spoken by the Han majority and many other ethnic groups in China. Nearly 1.2 billion people (around 16% of the world's population) speak some form of Chinese as their first language.

The varieties of Chinese are usually described by native speakers as dialects of a single Chinese language, but linguists note that they are as diverse as a language family. The internal diversity of Chinese has been likened to that of the Romance languages, but may be even more varied. There are between 7 and 13 main regional groups of Chinese, of which the most spoken by far is Mandarin (about 960 million), followed by Wu (80 million), Yue (60 million) and Min (70 million). Most of these groups are mutually unintelligible, although some, like Xiang[which?] and certain Southwest Mandarin dialects, may share common terms and some degree of intelligibility. All varieties of Chinese are tonal and analytic.
