Mandarin (traditional Chinese: simplified Chinese: pinyin: Guanhua; literally "speech of officials" or simplified Chinese: traditional Chinese: pinyin: Beifanghua; literally "northern dialect(s)"), is a category of related Chinese dialects spoken across most of northern and south-western China. When taken as a separate language, as is often done in academic literature, the Mandarin language has more native speakers than any other language. The "standard" in Standard Mandarin refers to the standard Beijing dialect of the Mandarin language.
Mandarin is also a general term describing any grade of nobility in the Chinese Imperial Court.
In English, Mandarin can refer to either of two distinct concepts:
In everyday use Mandarin refers to Standard Chinese or Standard Mandarin (Putonghua / Guoyu / Huayu), which is based on the particular Mandarin dialect spoken in Beijing. Standard Mandarin functions as the official spoken language of the People's Republic of China, the official language of the Republic of China (Taiwan), and one of the four official languages of Singapore. ?Chinese? ? in practice Standard Mandarin ? is one of the six official languages of the United Nations.
In its broader sense, Mandarin is a diverse group of Mandarin dialects spoken in northern and southwestern China (Guanhua / Beifanghua / Beifang fangyan). This group of dialects is the focus of this article.
The latter grouping is defined and used mainly by linguists, and is not commonly used outside of academic circles as a self-description. Instead, when asked to describe the spoken form they are using, Chinese speaking a form of non-Standard Mandarin will describe the variant that they are speaking, for example Southwestern Mandarin or Northeastern Mandarin, and consider it distinct from ?Standard Mandarin? (putonghua); they may not recognize that it is in fact classified by linguists as a form of ?Mandarin? in a broader sense. Nor is there a common ?Mandarin? identity based on language; rather, there are strong regional identities centred on individual dialects, because of the wide geographical distribution and cultural diversity of its speakers.
Like all other varieties of Chinese, there is significant dispute as to whether Mandarin is a language or a dialect. See Identification of the varieties of Chinese for more on this issue.

another. English to Mandarin chinese translations and Mandarin chinese to English translations, will contract
or expand depending on the subject matter.
Which Mandarin chinese do you need for your translation?
Getting the Mandarin chinese translation of your documents right can be very tricky. Clearly there's
only one Mandarin chinese language but as in most countries different sections of the population will
have different ways of saying things. Your Account Manager will discuss the target market
of your document with you. Clearly if your Mandarin chinese translation is aimed at teenagers it will
need to use their phrases and maybe even slang. Missing these small issues can be the
difference between a successful translation and a bad one.
