Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:  Chinese may have the most dialets in the world. people's accents are different from town to town, especially in the south, people from two neighbor towns may have troubles understanding each other. for me, some people's chinese are totally greek, but they are actually speaking Chinese! despite pronounciation diffs, all dialets can be written in the same chinese charactors and be understood by all.
