Chinese Languages
In China are spoken A LOT of different languages. Among them there are Mandarin (the official language of the People's Republic of China), Cantonese (spoken for example in Hong Kong) and Taiwanese. Anyway, the writing system (Chinese characters) is the same for all Chinese languages; so the term Mandarin (or Cantonese) refers only to the spoken language.
Do you think Chinese writing system is complex? I do agree! But we have made it easy to learn. The secret is: focus your efforts and time only on the most frequently used characters! Click here for the list of the 1,000 most commonly used Chinese characters.
