updated 11-22-99 Chinese (S-T) belongs to the Sinitic branch of the Sino-Tibetan family of languages. Please note that the whole Sinitic branch is often called Chinese. Although we tend to think of Chinese as a single language, it is actually a group of closely-related languages which together comprise the Sinitic branch. The Chinese languages, taken together, are spoken by more speakers than any other language in the world. Besides numerous speakers in China, there are also speakers in Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, the United States, and elsewhere. Languages comprising this branch include Mandarin — considered the standard of Chinese and spoken by the majority of speakers --, Cantonese (including Kwangsi), Wu (including Shanghai, Fukien or Min — divided into Northern Fukien or Foochow and Southern Fukien including Amoy and Taiwanese), Hakka (including Kiangsi), and Hsiang. Chinese is written using a complex system of ideographs, commonly called characters. Difficult although the characters are, they have enabled Chinese people to understand one another by reverting to writing even although their spoken languages may differ. Thus you may see Chinese people resort to writing characters in their hand to better communicate with one another. For many years, American libraries have used a transliteration system called Wade-Giles for describing works in Chinese; this transliteration system has fallen out of favor among the Chinese community, and beginning in the Fall of C.E. 2000, the Library of Congress plans to switch to the Pin-Yin transliteration system. Since our library follows the lead of the Library of Congress, most citations listed here are presently in the Wade-Giles transliteration scheme. This file will be updated to reflect the change to Pin-Yin following the change by the Library of Congress. Included here are works either about more than one Sinitic language, or those which do not differentiate. There will eventually also be files for some of the individual Sinitic languages. 495.183421 About China A156 RID: wln87-45602 ITEM #: chi00001 495.186421 Advanced Chinese A2446 RID: wln88-176891 ITEM #: chi00002 495.186421 An Advanced reader ...
