Most Chinese Languages, such as Mandarine, Cantonese, Hakka and such, are all of the same type of characters. There may be slight changes and differences, but generally they're the same.
There's 3 types, Traditional, Simplified and, less well known, Ancient.
Traditional Chinese are often for Cantonese people, while Simplified are for Mandarine.
Those who studies the Chinese language will study Ancient Chinese characters.
