Indians kids study three languages in school Hindi, English and regional language. 40% speak Hindi as mother tongue while rest of them speak Hindi as second language.
while China has a literacy rate of more than 90% while only 70% can speak the national language mandarin.
There you go, you mother-tongue is a mix of languages, Hindi and English and you write in roman-devanagari.
Chinese has dialects but there is only one Chinese language, one script which 100% all literate Chinese knows. 70% speaks mandarin but 100% writes the same script. You only have 40% who speaks Hindi yet they write in roman-devanagari
