    Tones
    Tones are used to distinguish words and all varieties of Chinese language have tones depending on their uses. For example, some varieties have 3 tones while others have up to 6 or 12 tones.

    Grammar
    Chinese is often called monosyllabic language but it is true only about Classical and Middle Chinese. In Classical Chinese, over 90% words are found to be monosyllabic that is pointing towards a single syllable. But in Modern Chinese, it is found in the case of a morpheme.

    Some South China varieties of Modern Chinese language are considered conservative because of more monosyllabic words. But in modern Mandarin, most nouns, adjectives and verbs are disyllabic.

    All varieties of Chinese language are analytical because they rely on syntax to define word’s function in a sentence. In other words, Chinese language has no tense, voice or numbers. And only a few articles are found in Chinese.

    Vocabulary
    Chinese has over 20,000 characters but only half the characters are commonly used. Here it is necessary to mention that the characters shouldn’t be taken as words because a word is made of two or more characters. Also, Chinese has a sizeable number of words borrowed from other languages.
