[SzymonRuci]

what the difference between "中文" and "汉语"?

[Lien2121]

中文 is used for written Chinese and 汉语 is used for spoken Chinese.

[liproqq]

From my understanding 汉语 refers more to the spoken Chinese and 中文 to the written Chinese. This doesn't mean that they are exclusive. In English they are synonymous.

[EquanimousLingo]

One is Chinese literature and one the language of the Han, both are used interchangeably.

[Christophe505125]

Zhong refers to contemporary where Han teferences trafitional and perhaps north central concentrated historionics.

我觉得说‘他不说中文’都应该可以。

[Not_Vicki]

What about 他不会讲汉语

[M92Y3]

他不说汉语 he does not speak chinese 그는 중국어를 말하지 않는다

[Kaeri01]

I wrote 华语 instead of 汉语. Would that be accepted? (I have learnt Chinese before and most of the books back in primary school wrote Chinese as 华语）

[dio_rgenes]

Wo bu shuo hanyu !

[Snowdrop225]

Is 讲 a viable alternative for 说?

[Love555561]

My translator gives me this 他不讲中文。( S translator) and google translate gave me a different answer. Whats the best answer??

[Snowdrop225]

I guess stick with what Duo tells you, but to my knowledge, 讲 (meaning speak) might work in place of 说.

[I_Am_The_Senate]

Then he should visit www.duolingo.com

[A_MYSTIC]

I did he speaks English, should this be accepted?

[ChuckFoste]

No, the sentence doesn't mention English.
