It's important to note that while Mandarin is the official language, there are other languages spoken in Taiwan, including:
* Taiwanese Hokkien: A Southern Min language spoken by a majority of the population.
* Hakka: Another Chinese dialect spoken by a significant portion of the population.
* Indigenous languages: There are over 14 indigenous languages spoken in Taiwan, though many are endangered.
* English: English is widely used in business, education, and tourism.
So, while Mandarin is the official language, Taiwan is a linguistically diverse society.
