Mandarin Chinese is the most common, most popular dialect of Chinese. Chinese is written in characters, with unique strokes to form a word. There are eight different stroke types.

There are traditional and simplified characters. Simplified characters are not as complex as the earlier traditional characters, with a lesser amount of strokes.

Chinese characters originally were modeled after animals, people, or other tangible objects. Many still resemble these things.

For a visual, a simple Google images search on Chinese Characters will provide a multitude of examples.This is how we write I love you in Chinese For example:我愛你 is I love you.

Mandarin Chinese is a logographic language, meaning that each character represents a word or a morpheme. It is written using Chinese characters, which are formed by strokes and arranged in a square shape. Each character is composed of different components that give clues to its meaning and pronunciation.
