Recently, the British government has allocated 10 million pounds to support English schools in teaching Chinese. The government’s goal is to have at least 5,000 British citizens fluent in Chinese by 2020. The UK is the number one country that actively learns Chinese. So why are more and more people learning Chinese? The following aspects may explain: First, China’s economy is developing rapidly. Countries from all over the world are becoming more united, and other countries need to do business with China. Naturally, they need to use Chinese.
