Understanding More on the Chinese Language
Business knows no geographical boundaries. The Chinese language is spoken and written by several ethnic groups in China as well as other countries such as Taiwan, Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Thailand and even in Indonesia!
In fact, a population of at least 1.2 billion in the world speaks and writes Chinese as its first language.
Not to mention, there are also multiple variations of the Chinese language. Besides, different dialects are also adopted in different regions/localities/countries. Such vast diversity often require the need for proficient linguists to deliver accurate document translations while ensuring the localisation of these contents.
Traditional Chinese – The Beautiful Side of It
If you have been learning Traditional Chinese or comes from a country which uses Traditional Chinese as your official form of writing, you will know that Chinese is not only one of the most beautiful languages in the world, its beauty also comes from the depth of meaning of written Chinese.
In fact, seeing warlords and military figures display dominion during the day, while writing beautiful poetry at night is a pretty common sight during ancient times.
Interesting Side Facts of Traditional Chinese
For instance, if the translated novel is meant for the Taiwanese readers, you will need to convey this important information to the translation company prior to work commencement.
Which one to choose – Simplified Chinese or Traditional Chinese Translation Service?
Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese are different variations of the written Chinese language.
Even though they have the same basic grammatical structure but due to many cultural and historical reasons, different writing systems are deployed by both forms of Chinese and are not interchangeable.
A need for you to prepare translations in both Simplified and Traditional Chinese.
While Simplified Chinese is used as the official writing system in mainland China, Singapore and Malaysia, countries like Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau uses the Traditional Chinese as their official writing system.
Mandarin and Cantonese
Mandarin is the standard and official spoken language for mainland China, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, and can also be often used in some parts of Thailand and Indonesia.Cantonese is the spoken language in certain areas of China such as the Guangdong province and also in Hong Kong and Macau.
While Cantonese is a dialect used in Guangdong China, Cantonese is one of the official spoken languages used in Hong Kong and Macau. Simply put, Chinese documents for the China market which requires some localisation of Cantonese are presented in Simplified Chinese whereas the same set of documents are presented in Traditional Chinese for the Hong Kong and Macau markets.
