The Mandarim

Mandarin (traditional Chinese: 官 话; simplified Chinese: 官 话; pinyin: Guanhua, literally "speech of officials", or even traditional Chinese: 北方 话, Simplified Chinese: 北方 话, pinyin Běifānghuà, dialects of the north ") is the name given to a category of related Chinese dialects spoken across most of northern and southwestern China.When it is considered a separate language, as is often done in academic literature, the Mandarin has more speakers than any other language.

In linguistics, the term Mandarin can refer to either of two distinct concepts:
  • Chinese paddern;
  • Mamdarim Paddren;
Like all other variants of Chinese, there are several controversies about the Mandarin should be considered a language or a dialect.
