THE STUDY OF CHINESE.1
Advocated by United States Consular
Agent in the Interests of
M> American Trade. |

Mr.. Charles Neuer, United States
consular agent at Gera, in an official
communication to the state depart
ment advocates the study of the Chi
nese language as means of extending
American trade in the Chinese empire,
says the Washington Star. "While
China is considered the land of prom
Use for our farmers and manufacture
ers," says he, 1.-The Importance of the
knowledge of the Chinese language is
greatly undervalued. I submit the de-
tails of a recent interview with lin
guist who has given special attention
to this subject. 1t is we'll understood
that in order to enter into perman-
ent commercial relations with a for
eign country it is indispensable to
know its language. When Russian in
dustries began to develop the Germans
recognized that in order to engage in
profitabl trade in that country it was
necessary to learn Russian, and there
is now no country where the Russian
language is so much taught as in Ger
many.
The Chinese language is telegraph
ic. 1t conveys the idea and not the
word for the thing. as the figure 80 rep
resents the idea and not the word. The
Chinese have invented more than 49,
600 marks for their writing. In the
opinion of my informant it will require
only about 5000 marks for mercantile
correspondence, and it will be easier
to learn them than the words of an
ordinary foreign language.
Russian is more difficult for Amer
leans than Chinese. 1t takes much
longer to learn the spoken language,
because of the variety of dialects; but
any one who can learn enough of the
writings to answer ordinary purposes
In few months anG have his knowl-
edge perfected by linguist within
about year. An exact instruction in
one of the Chinese languages can only
be given by Chinaman.
This method has been adopted in
Germany. Besides the professor for
the theory of language. there are four
Chinese linguists in the Oriental sem
mary of Berlin teaching the business
style and the language of Picking,
Shanghai and Canton. 1t is not intend
ed to fit pupils for the diplomatic serv-
scs, but for commercial work."
