However, it's important to note that:
* Traditional Chinese is still used in Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan.
* Some older people in mainland China may still be more comfortable with Traditional Chinese.
* Both Simplified and Traditional Chinese are considered equally valid forms of the language.
Simplified Chinese has been adopted for practical reasons, as it is generally easier to learn and write compared to Traditional Chinese. This has made it easier for people in China to access literacy and communication.
