How many alphabets does the Chinese language have?

Most languages have only one alphabet. Chinese has zero.

Chinese has no alphabet at all. It uses a system of characters to represent words and ideas.

There are more than 50,000 characters, but hardly anyone knows all of them, And in fact, most of them are obsolete.

A typical educated person knows about 8000 characters.

Only about 3000 are needed to read a newspaper.
