Did you know that... -there are over 50,000 Chinese characters in existence today? -Chinese is the oldest written language still in use today in the world? -many Chinese babies are named after important historical events? -the Chinese names for dumpling and sleep sound almost exactly the same? Chinese is a fascinating and mysterious language that has captured the attention of scholars and linguists for centuries.
