Language planning of China
Accomplishments and failures
Language Planning is called Language Reform in China. The chief aims are:
1. To standardize and popularize the lingua franca of China;
2. To write in vernacular style instead of the traditional classic style;
3. To design and promote a system of Chinese phonetic symbols;
4. To simplify the Chinese characters;
5. To design and, if needed, improve writing systems for minor
nationalities.
