"In #Hong Kong a majority of people speak #Cantonese, we still think that it is an inferior language. It is not an official language. #Sinophone is the key word here, because language is a such a key marker of identity." chinabooksreview.com/2025/02/04/e... #LauYeeWa @vivianwu.bsky.social

A #Uyghur or #Tibetan writer might write Sinophone literature (中文文學) or works in their language.
