History of Modern Standard Chinese : ウィキペディア英語版 | History of Modern Standard Chinese
Mandarin, officially Modern Standard Chinese, is the official language used by the People's Republic of China, the Republic of China (Taiwan) and Singapore. == Before Mandarin ==
Since ancient history, the Chinese language has always consisted of a wide variety of dialects; hence prestige dialects and linguae francae have always been needed. Confucius, for example, used ''yǎyán'' (雅言), or "elegant speech", rather than colloquial regional dialects; text during the Han dynasty also referred to ''tōngyǔ'' (通語), or "common language". Rime dictionaries, which were written since the Southern and Northern Dynasties, may also have reflected one or more systems of standard pronunciation during those times. However, all of these standard dialects were probably unknown outside the educated elite; even among the elite, pronunciations may have been very different, as the unifying factor of all Chinese dialects, Classical Chinese, was a written standard, not a spoken one.
