Doesn't China have more than one spoken language, though? If I get all of them, Chinese. Otherwise Italian because then I'd have Spanish as well, I know toddler Spanish already and the grammar is the same.

From what I was taught, most people in china primarily speak mandarin or can speak mandarin as well as another dialect. Mandarin is the one you want.

I was being intentionally broad but yeah. Mandarin, Cantonese, Taiwanese, whatever the Weigers speak, and a bunch of regional dialects/languages. That's my understanding at least, without googling it.
