普遍比較先進,有以下四個原因:

(1)更容易表達。信息時代,隨著時間的推移,新的概念不斷湧現。創造新詞來表達這些概念,但這些新詞大多數只是音節的集合,無法通過將它們與現有概念聯繫起來猜測它們的含義。結果,量變得如此龐大且互不相關,不僅某個領域的新手需要花費太多時間來學習詞彙,而且同一領域的專家也需要不斷記住更新的詞彙,而這些詞彙則需要不斷地記憶。時間可以用來專註于這些領域的知識。而且,這也導致不同領域的專家,無論關係多麼密切,由於彼此的詞彙難以管理,而很難相互交流。至於中文,這是完全不同的情況,后,語言不再是問題,專家不需要記住詞彙表,不同領域的專家可以輕鬆理解彼此的詞彙。原因在於中文使用兩個或多個字元來表達新概念,每個字元都有自己的含義,可以將新概念與現有概念聯繫起來,使用戶很容易猜測可能的含義。與字母語言相比,這是一個巨大的優勢,並且隨著時間的推移,優勢將變得越來越明顯。用26個字母,你可以有數百萬個英語來表達世界,但字母是沒有意義的,每個單詞都需要單獨記住。對人類的生命來說,這是多麼難以承受的負擔?所以7000個漢字,都有自己的讀音和意義,你能做什麼來表達這個世界?它們是無限的中文單片語合,並且很容易猜出它們的含義。人類探索世界、創造新世界是多麼美好的世界?

(2) 更易於閱讀。隨著信息的日益堆積,人們很難跟上理解相關文本信息的步伐,尤其是當每個單詞都是音節的集合時,它比暗示更多的圖形字元更慢。對於中文這樣的二維語言來說,普通人可以看一頁文章幾眼就明白大意,但是對於英語這樣的一維語言來說,就更難了——單詞連在一起就像醜陋的蠕蟲在尋呼機周圍爬行一樣。而且,對於一個受過的人來說,經常能在看報紙時遇到生詞,這對於受過高中教育的中國人來說是一件很難得的事情。英語世界的教授需要不斷地記住詞彙,但高中畢業后不會這樣做。

(3) 更容易說、聽、想。我們用發音來說話、聽和思考,效率依賴於簡單和豐富。每個漢字都是一個音節和一個意思的結合,而英語則用幾個音節來表達一個意思,這使得中國人的思維速度很快。例如,如果你在心裏數數或計算,中文就更容易、更快,因為在中文中,簡單的數字只是一個音節。而且漢語的音韻比較豐富,音節較多,每個音節可以有四個聲調。幾乎在所有情況下,漢語在表達相同含義時都更節省文本長度和發音時間,這意味著說、聽和思考更有效率。

(4)更容易學習。人們可能會說,漢語很難學。也許這適合那些曾經使用字母語言的人。事實上,許多在一歲左右就能說中文,許多六歲左右甚至更大的孩子就能記住數千個漢字。對於詞彙來說,如果你掌握了5000個字元,那麼你就可以輕鬆駕馭數百萬個單詞——瓶頸是知識而不是語言。漢字圖案富有規律,其本意是日常生活中的具體物品,配合物品的圖片,很容易讓孩子記憶。順便說一句,3500個字可以成為一個有文化的人,5000個字可以成為一個受過教育的人,7000個字足以讓一個教授進行高級研究。對於語法來說,

Is Chinese more advanced than English?
Chinese is generally more advanced for four reasons as bellow:

(1) Easier to express. In information times, new concepts are emerged in greater and greater numbers as time goes on. English creates new words to express these concepts, but most of these new words are just a collection of syllables, which cannot guess their meanings by relating them to existing concepts. As a consequence, the scale of vocabulary are becoming so enormous and unrelated that not only new hands in a field need to take too much time on learning its vocabulary but also experts in the same tiny field need to keep memorizing the updated vocabulary, while these time can be used in focusing on knowledge of these fields. Moreover, it causes that experts in different fields, however closely they are related, can hardly communicate with each other for the sake difficulty in governing each other’s vocabulary. As to Chinese, it is totally different scenario, after high school, language is not a problems anymore, experts don’t need to memorize lists of vocabulary and experts in different fields can easily understand each other’s vocabularies. The reason lies in that Chinese uses two or several characters to express new concepts, each character has its own meaning which can relate new concepts to existing one and makes users easy to guess the possible meaning. This is a huge advantage compared with alphabetic language and the advantage will become more and more obvious as time goes on. With 26 letters, you can have millions of English words to express the world, but letters are meaningless, each word needs to be remembered separately. What an unbearable burden for human life? So with 7000 characters, which have their own pronunciation and meaning, what you can do in expressing this world? Their are unlimited combination of Chinese words and the meanings of them can easily guess. What a wonderful world for human to explore the world and create a new world?

(2) Easier to read. As information are increasingly piled up, one can hardly keep on the step to understand related text information, especially when every word is a collection of syllables, it is more slow to get the point than graphic characters which give more hints. For Chinese, which is two-dimensional language, one common man can take several glances to a page of article and understand the main ideas, but for English, which a one-dimensional language, it is more difficult — the words are joined up as ugly worms crawling all around the pagers. Moreover, for one person with college education can often meet new words in reading newspaper, which is a rare thing for Chinese which high-school education. A professor in English world needs to keep memorize vocabularies, but Chinese don’t do such a thing after graduation from high school.

(3) Easier to speak, hear and think. We use pronunciation to speak, hear and think, the efficiency relies on the simplicity and richness. Every Chinese character is a union of a syllable and a meaning and for English, several syllables are used to express a meaning, which makes Chinese fast in thinking. For instance, if you do counting or calculation in mind, Chinese is much easier and faster, for in Chinese, easy of the numbers are just one syllable. Moreover, Chinese are more rich in sound, they use more syllables and each syllable can have four tones. Almost in every cases, Chinese is more economical in text length and pronunciation time to express the same meaning, which means more efficient in speaking, hearing and thinking.

(4)It is easier to learn. People may say, but Chinese is difficult to learn. Maybe it is for people who used to use alphabetic language. In fact, many Chinese children can speak Chinese at the age of around 1 and many with an age around 6 or older can memorize thousands of characters. For vocabulary, if you knon 5000 characters, it will be easy for you to govern millions of words – the bottleneck is knowledge not language. Characters are full of regular patterns and their original meanings are specific items in daily life, which makes it easy for children to memorize along with the pictures of the items. By the way, 3500 characters can make a literate person, 5000 can make an educated one, and 7000 are much enough for an professor to do advanced researches. For grammar, there is no grammar at least in the meaning of the western languages – there is no Tense, sex, number, lattice, deformation, never to say the combination of them.
