Features: Chinese, the most beautiful language in the world. For a hundred years, we have relied on it to express ourselves, used it to think, passed it down through it, and relied on it to travel through the five thousand years of historical and cultural tunnel. However, Chinese is facing a crisis. Saving Chinese is an urgent matter. As Chinese people, if we cannot use our mother tongue well for cultural exchange and cannot appreciate the charm of Chinese, how tragic would that be! If we do not take timely action, one day our descendants may find it harder to learn Chinese than to learn foreign languages. Therefore, we must raise our voices loudly and join hands to cherish and defend our mother tongue!
