Hey dabouncer (sorry man...don't know your name)...you speak Canto, right? What would you say is more widely spoken, Mandarin or Cantonese? I know Canto is spoken in HK and Taiwan and the Canton province, but there's a whole lot more of China than just that and I assume the speak Mandarin.

It's Gary, nice to meet you . Yeah, I speak canto. And mandarin speakers outnumber canto speakers..I would say at least 5:1.
Actually, Taiwanese speak a slightly modified version of mandarin, but you're definitely right on Canton province. The dialect is named after it after all
