How many letters are there in Chinese alphabet?
Answer:
There isn't a single Chinese language, the most widely spoken is Mandarin.
Written Mandarin doesn't use an alphabet, it uses a system of symbols - over 40,000 symbols are used.
During the 20th century, work on Simplified Chinese was started - making Manderin easier to write and reducing the number of symbols. This system reduces the number of symbols to a few thousand.
