It was wrong but we only think and talk that way.
前面松哥老婆差点被车撞那一幕，他说请以华文(华语)和我老婆道歉。而因该是 Mandarin 而 不是 Chinese,因为 Chinese 指的是华人，华族。反而 Mandarin 指的是华文(华语)。 ...公仔箱論壇- W/ K" b; ]! f0 R) w7 o) ~6 b

The word "Chinese" has multiple implications, just like any other words like "English" , "German" and "French"~~~ When you are in a place where majority of the public speaks Cantonese (which is a local dialect of Chinese), asking a person to "Speak Chinese" means you want that person to speak in that local dialect, i.e. Cantonese in this case! 公仔箱論壇+ ~( B- i9 f: `
