I have noticed over the years that some sources are publishing incorrect information about Mandarin pronunciation. It is my intent to identify a few of the misconceptions and to make the reality of the pronunciation of Mandarin Chinese crystal clear, both in linguistic terms and in everyday language. Please note that the criticisms I make are based on linguistic science. I have earned a master’s in applied linguistics here in China, and the facts which I present here are not in dispute among linguists, there are simply not widely understood by many students of Chinese. I have a unique history with regards to my linguistic development (in English), but I have also successfully learned to produce all of these sounds myself as an adult. In short, a lot of the websites out there which offer instructions on the pronunciation of Mandarin are wrong.

BBC chinese Chinese pronunciation Lesen 网络孔子学院 站长统计 Chinese phrasebook Mandarin Chinese is the official language of Mainland China and Taiwan, and is one of the official languages of Singapore. In English, it is often just called "Mandarin" or "Chinese". In China, it is called Putonghua (普通话), meaning "common speech", while in Taiwan it is referred to as Guoyu (國語), "the national language." Note that while the spoken Mandarin in the above places is more or less the same, the written characters are different. Understand[edit] Map of Chinese dialects Note that "dialect" has a different meaning when applied to Chinese from when it is applied to other languages. Chinese "dialects" are mutually unintelligible, as different as, say, Italian and French, which we would call "related languages" rather than "dialects" - using a pure linguistic definition they are distinct "languages". All Chinese dialects, in general, use the same set of characters in reading and writing. About one fifth of the people in the world speak some form of Chinese as their native language. a e
