The role of Putonghua Publicity Week

Mandarin is the modern standard Chinese commonly used by the people and the country in China. It is a common Chinese with Beijing dialect as the standard pronunciation, northern dialect as the basic dialect and typical modern vernacular as the grammatical norm. Wang Daohong, director of the Language and Literature Work Center of the Municipal Education Bureau, said that with the approval of the State Council, the third week of September every year has been designated as the National Putonghua Promotion Week since the first popularization week of 1998.

In daily life, we should try our best to encourage our families to use Putonghua, actively promote Putonghua within our power, and develop civilized and good language habits.

Carry out a series of work and activities to promote Putonghua, post slogans, distribute materials, publicize the theme of popularization week and the significance of speaking Putonghua and writing standardized words, and create a good atmosphere for popularization activities. Through various forms of publicity week activities, we can have a deeper understanding of the significance of "speaking Mandarin together and running towards a well-off society hand in hand".
