Hi NearThere,

“there have come to be variants of Chinese language which are Cantonese, Taiwanese, Southern dialects, Northern dialects and so forth. “

Does this work?

It may safely be said: YES!

There are some more examples:


In Central Asia, most people spoke variations of Turkic languages. And in China, people spoke different variants of Chinese.


..the major spoken variant of Chinese used in Hong Kong. .

Regards.
