93%. the literacy rate of China is 82%. but it wasn't always this high! prior to 1999 only 20% of Chinese were literate!
I remain amazed by how many people are willing to take Chinaâs official statistics at face value. Yet news story after news story refers to Chinaâs supposed high literacy rate. If you know any Chinese characters, try to see how many of the following items you can pronounce. (But even if you donât know any Chinese characters, please keep reading.) The pronunciation neednât be in Mandarin if you speak another Sinitic language. Moreover, if you arenât sure how to pronounce some characters but know the meaning of the word nonetheless, give yourself full credit for that item anyway.
