Chinese does indeed have different dialects – eight to be exact. The official dialect of China is Mandarin, also called “Putonghua.” More than 70% of the Chinese population speaks Mandarin; the other major dialects used in China are Yue (Cantonese), Xiang (Hunanese), Min dialect, Gan dialect, Wu dialect, and Kejia or Hakka dialect. If you are unsure which dialect to choose and the individual you are speaking with cannot express this, you can call an on-demand interpreter that knows Chinese, and they will likely be able to tell you quickly which dialect is being spoken.
In addition, studies also show that there are over 300 languages spoken within the borders of China. The majority of these languages are indigenous from the Sinitic branch within the Sino-Tibetan language family. Today, over 1.3 billion native speakers ensure the continued existence of these different Chinese languages.
To become a certified translator, associate members of a certifying body have to pass an exam and abide by a strict code of ethics to achieve the title of Certified Translator. Certification is done provincially in Canada and Federally in the United States. Each country has different certifying bodies, and translators and interpreters must thoroughly study both source and target languages. Sometimes this comes in the form of an undergraduate degree in Translation. Other times it is through continuing education. Once a translator is ready to take their exam, they can attempt it for a fee. If they pass the exam, they must pay membership dues and will then become recognized as “Certified.”
