PROGRESS OF MANDARIN.
BECOMING LANGUAGE OF MODERN CHINA.
Considerable progress is reported in Peping in the attempt which is being made to simplify and unify the language of China to-day.
For centuries one of the great difficulties in governing China had been caused by the diversity of dialects in this country... When the first Parliament of the infact Re- public of China convened it was discovered that the tongue of most of the members was unintelligible to most of the others.
In imperial times this difficulty was overcome, to some extent by making Mandarin the official langu- age, and in this way representatives of the court at Peping communi-' ' cated, with provincial authorities.
The Society for the Uniäcation of the National Language, under the direction of the "Ministry of Education, has now come to the conclusion that Mandarin, must also be the language of modern China. But the new Mandarin, it is hoped, will not be an artificial means of will become increasingly popular expression for official use alone, but throughout the land.
According to Dr. Y. R. Chao, of the National Research Institute of History and Philology, which was established in Peping last year, there are many indications which show that the prestige of Mandarin is rapidly growing. Even in such extreme
southern provinces as of those states speak Mandarin Fukien and Kwangtung the natives
when visiting each other.
Mandarin, is also making great headway in Shanghai and is univer sal in the higher institutions of learning everywhere. At the Sur Canton. Yat Sen University at lecturing in Cantonese or Mandarin is optional, but even some of the native born teachers prefer to use the latter.
Dr. Chao, who is a graduate of Cornell and Harvard Universities and who also has studied in the department of phonetics as Univer- site College, Londen, is directing the linguistic survey of modera China under auspices of the new National Research Institute in Peping.
