* Taiwan: This is the most prominent area where Traditional Chinese is used officially and in everyday life.
* Hong Kong: While Cantonese is the dominant dialect, Traditional Chinese is used in formal settings, media, and education.
* Macau: Similar to Hong Kong, Traditional Chinese is used alongside Cantonese for official purposes and education.
* Overseas Chinese communities: Many overseas communities with roots in China, particularly in Southeast Asia, still maintain Traditional Chinese as their written language.
It's important to note that:
* Simplified Chinese is the standard written form in mainland China and Singapore.
* Cantonese is a dialect of Chinese spoken in Guangdong province and Hong Kong, using Traditional Chinese characters for writing.
Therefore, while Traditional Chinese is used in specific regions, it's not as widespread as Simplified Chinese.
