WTF LOL

I know your source of info. Its wrong.

Manchurians have their own language, look it up.

Here is a quote that explains abit on northern chinese language and why mandarin is not manchu language.

"Well, I do agree that Mandarin is simply the modern descendant of a Northern Chinese linguistic koine that was influenced by Altaic languages- notably Mongolic, Turkic, and Tungusic languages. Since Northern China is mostly plains, 1) Nomadic conquerors can easily conquer the plains, since they rode horses. 2) Less linguistic diversity contributed to a Northern Chinese koine, unlike in Southern China, where there are geographical barriers. 3) In the issue of nomadic conquerors resisting sinification, this policy has failed. The Jurchens established Jurchen-language schools, but with limited success. Eventually the nomadic rulers either left or were assimilated.

The Qing dynasty was known for imposing the mandarin language on all its subjects, but with limited success in southern China, where Mandarin didn't need to be used."


Also, I don't know where you get the whole Chinese hating Manchu thing from. Maybe back then there was some hatred from certain groups but now Manchurians are considered Chinese, theres no hatred anymore.

A few people have explained the whole Manchu language vs Mandarin but you seem to ignore it lol.
If you speak Mandarin and other Chinese dialects, you can see the similarities between them, they're not like Manchu language.
Like, Hello in Mandarin is Ni Hao, in Cantonese its Nei Hou, in Manchu its Ei or something.
