Chinese is the language of the world’s oldest and richest continuous civilisation. It has at least five thousand years of history, with many symbols from early times that are still used today. The written language uses single distinctive symbols, or characters (hàn zì), to represent each syllable.
Although the system of writing has evolved and the vocabulary vastly expanded, the principles of the language together with the symbols and characters have remained constant. While many native languages and dialects exist in China, the writing is common to them all, because it is not alphabetic.
Today, the characters used in the People’s Republic of China are, generally, ‘simplified’, while those used in Taiwan are ‘traditional’ or ‘full form’. Pinyin is a system of written Chinese that uses the Latin alphabet.
There are many reasons why Chinese is an important language to learn. It is the most widely spoken on earth and is becoming increasingly influential thanks to China's ever growing economic, political and cultural power.
