"Chinese" can mean the written OR the spoken language. It can also be used to describe people who are born of this descent.

5 o4 A6 r* c1 c! ?4 [% G% L' w3 rSince this series takes place in an era of HK before the late 1990s (before it is officially returned as a part of China), "Chinese" can be loosely used to mean Cantonese, since Mandarin hasn't been established as a common dialect of China yet. On the other hand, Cantonese is the predominant language of the local area. So, I think what 松哥 said is acceptable.  |
