The term “Mandarin” in fact refers to the language that was spoken only among government officials in ancient China. Ordinary people were never taught in “Mandarin” in ancient China.
Putonghua, which means “the common language,” is the more accurate term that Chinese people refer to as their capital language. However, “Mandarin” has become the most accepted term in English which indicates the national language of China.
Most students in China were taught in Mandarin nowadays (except those who live in rural areas). There is a practical value in learning Mandarin for traveling or doing business overseas. Even in regions where Cantonese or other dialects are dominated, Mandarin can still be understood by most people.
