Standard Chinese

The phonology is based on the Beijing dialect of Mandarin Chinese, a large and diverse group of Chinese dialects spoken across northern, central and southwestern China. The vocabulary is largely drawn from this group of dialects. The grammar is standardized to the body of modern literary works that define modern written vernacular Chinese, the colloquial alternative to Classical Chinese. The name "Mandarin" originally referred to the language of the imperial court in Beijing, and as such was a synonym for Modern Standard Chinese in the 20th century, but it became ambiguous as use was extended to the various Northern dialects of Chinese. This article will use the phrase "Mandarin dialects" for this broader usage.
