Cantonese was the native dialect spoken by Sun Yat Sen father of modern China

and what? Confucius and Chiang Kai-shek spoke by Mandarin

Cantonese is the language of democracy/freedom where as Mandarin is the language of Communism in China

LOL, are you insolent troll and abettor! you forgot that Taiwan and Singapore in majority use Chinese Mandarin

Data is from 2006 and we are now in 2014 that means 120 million Cantonese speakers. Even in 2007 there was 70 million.

Anyway I really don't care about it anymore just wanted to talk about something.


hm, 120 million? why not 130 or 201 millions?

where did you see information about 120 million? can you please shared links? I want see too.

I only found 59 - 70 million speakers. From Wikipedia and Ethnologue.


Because many articles claim 120 million NOT 130 or 201 million.
