Types of Chinese characters. Traditionally Chinese characters are divided into six categories (å­æ¸ liÃ¹shÅ« Six Writings). This classification is often attributed to Xu Shen's second century dictionary Shuowen Jiezi, but it has been dated earlier. This page shows four of those categories.
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.
