1 The name kangaroo is used broadly to include all species within the super-family of macropods.  The Macropodidae include kangaroos, wallabies, wallaroos, pademelons, tree kangaroos and forest wallabies.
In mainland China, Simplified Chinese is what is used in writing, while in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, and many overseas Chinese communities, Traditional Chinese is used. Therefore, when requesting a translation into Chinese, it is important to be aware of what region the text will be directed to. If this is targeted for the Peopleâs Republic of China, or an international conference, most likely we will want to use Simplified Chinese, as Simplified is the standard there. And otherwise, if these are texts for regions such as Hong Kong, for example, we should consider the translation into Traditional Chinese.
The standard Chinese language is Standard Mandarin, the official language of both China and Taiwan and one of the six languages used at the United Nations. Hong Kong, Macau, and some other areas speak Cantonese. Native speakers of any Chinese dialect are referred to as sinophones. In addition to the many dialects currently classified, there are a number of regional dialects that have not been studied much. These include Danzhou, Xianghua, and Shaozhu Tuhua.
