Classical Chinese in modern China

Classical Chinese is a language that goes back at least 2,500 years and it was the written language until the beginning of the 20th century. Since then, it has been replaced by modern (spoken) Chinese, and today almost everything is written in this "new" language. So classical Chinese is essentially a dead language. Yet it persists in smaller pockets of the modern world, such as idioms, signs and titles. It is a language register that conveys elegance, authority and class, and thus it has its own place in the modern world. This video explains to how classical Chinese is still being used in modern China. https://ko-fi.com/imregalambos
