Many people abroad say that Cantonese is even more influential than Mandarin? Is it true?/You don't say. /You don't say.

Before the 1980s. Almost all the overseas Chinese in the United States are Cantonese, about 6.5438+0 million, and all of them speak Cantonese. After that, the United States began to handle the immigration of Chinese families in the United States. Almost all of them are from Guangdong and a few are from Fujian. The number of China people in the United States has risen to 6.5438+0.8 million. Cantonese is still spoken in China, and it is spoken in Chinatown in major cities in the United States. Not only in the United States, but also in Canada, Australia and South America. In a word, Cantonese is mainly spoken in Chinese communities all over the world (including Southeast Asia, Vietnam, Thailand, Cambodia, Puzhai and India). Since the 1990s, more and more international students have gone abroad, and Mandarin has become popular abroad (but Cantonese is still the main language).

Therefore, Cantonese is a worldwide language, and Cantonese culture (Cantonese movies, TV dramas, Cantonese songs and Cantonese novels) has a great market abroad, but Cantonese is strongly suppressed in China and will soon be eliminated.
