An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The usage of Chinese by the Chinese diaspora and their descendants has been determined by a large number of factors, including their ancestry, their migrant ancestors' "regime of origin", assimilation through generational changes, and official policies of their country of residence. The general trend is that more established Chinese populations in the Western world and in many regions of Asia have Cantonese as either the dominant variety or as a common community vernacular, while Mandarin is much more prevalent among new arrivals, making it increasingly common in many Chinatowns, though still not dominant.

  • 海外華人使用的語言除了現代標準漢語(標準官話,又稱普通話、國語、華語)及各種漢語外,也會使用居住國的當地語言。西方國家早期的華人社群通常使用粵語,隨著使用普通話的華人新移民越來越多,現代標準漢語在華人社區越來越普遍,但仍然不是優勢語言;在東南亞,南方漢語(主要為閩、粵、客)則最常被使用。 (zh)
