= = =**China Clothing is very important to the Chinese** =

//China// and consists of almost sixty thousand characters, although only about five thousand are used in everyday life. Unlike other modern languages, which use phonetic alphabets, Chinese is written in pictographs and ideographs, symbols that represent concepts rather than sounds. The communist government, in an attempt to increase literacy, developed a simplified writing system. There is also a system, called //pinyin,// of writing Chinese words in Roman characters. Chinese is a tonal language: words are differentiated not just by sounds but by whether the intonation is rising or falling. There are a number of dialects, including Yue (spoken in Canton), Wu (Shangai), Minbei (Fuzhou), Minnan (Hokkien-Taiwanese), Xiang, Gan, and Hakka. Some groups have their own languages.

 **Culture **  **There are different cultures in China. The big one I would like to hit is that when you get married in China you haft were these special shoes in the ceremony and if you don’t wear the special shoes they will remove your toes or you would have a live sentence. **  **The historically, particular Chinese customs could be viewed as oppressive to women. One such custom, foot binding, is dangerous to natural development. Foot binding is related to how the Chinese traditionalists view the ideal image of a woman – one with narrow, pointed feet. These forced foot deformities were thought to be a sign of class, and a symbol of chastity. The feet of young Chinese girls are bound tightly – toes forced under the sole of the foot and, over time, are forced into smaller and smaller sized shoes. Gradually, the foot becomes deformed to where it forms a point. This practice is not dominant in China in the modern day. Public outcry over the practice started to come about towards the end of the 19th century. Still, today there are over 1 million Chinese women living with feet deformed by the practice. **   **China Clothing **  **Chinese Clothing is not like U.S normal clothing. They wear robes and silk and much patterned clothing and it takes very long to make. When someone wears expensive material it means they are rich or high class. **  **Women’s Clothing is a very big thing they have there. On a one robe it have 17,340 feet of string it takes maybe 1 month to 4 months it depends on the size and on the they texture of the string. A robe or dress a women can use her whole life time. Most of the time if you get married your mother in law will buy you one or make you one the price of a robe cost maybe around $175-$205. ** <span style="display: block; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: center;"> **<span style="font-family: 'Arial Rounded MT Bold','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Men’s clothing is somewhat like our clothing in the U.S. In China they Karate like clothing.
