Chinese is spoken more than any other language in the world. The geographical area where it is spoken covers mainland China, Taiwan, Singapore and Hong Kong. Like many largely used languages, Chinese includes many dialects. Mandarin is the most commonly spoken dialect and is the official standard language used by the People’s Republic of China.
In Chinese there is no relation between the spoken languages and the written scripts (characters). For instance, two areas may both speak Mandarin, but they may write in either Simplified or Traditional Chinese script. For this reason, when you are targeting a Chinese speaking audience it is important to know who it is you are addressing and to incorporate the correct written script.
